Technical requirements
As we know, the programs we use in the industry are incredibly powerful and as such require significant hardware and knowledge to leverage fully. Autodesk Civil 3D requires professional-grade computing horsepower, but this book will dive into other programs beyond Civil 3D that will prefer even more horsepower.
Though we have listed the minimum required hardware for this book, we have also indicated preferred guidelines on hardware to bear in mind as you look to incorporate these tools into your existing career. The minimum recommended hardware will give you a place to start and handle these tools, but we would push you to incorporate higher-capacity hardware when available to ensure fast working operations and to avoid any potential data or progress loss. Here, we’ll review the minimum requirements that Autodesk recommends, with a few of our suggestions added to increase efficiency and speed throughout the BIM design process:
