Section Creation and Analysis

Up to this point, we’ve essentially been chipping away at progressing our Residential Subdivision design, all while learning many of the design and analysis tools available to us within Civil 3D. We’ve taken an existing site composed of two existing lots and have subdivided it into smaller building parcels, graded lots and building pads, two roads, and several utilities to service future development. From a design standpoint, we are just about complete. From an analysis standpoint, we’ll take a look at one more set of tools, Sectioning tools, available to us within Civil 3D that will allow us to further analyze our design.

Also, up to this point, we’ve mostly been working in plan view with the occasional need to view our modeled objects in our Object Viewer. As we utilize the Sectioning tools, we’ll be able to view our modeled objects through a slightly different lens where we’ll truly be able to visualize how...
