Getting started with Grading Optimization

Autodesk Civil 3D’s Grading Optimization tool is a user-friendly tool designed to automatically grade the land in various settings, such as construction sites, road interchanges, and around buildings. Using advanced cloud-based optimization algorithms, the tool focuses on creating a smooth surface while considering user-defined constraints, including grading and drainage elements, high/low points, roads, and pathways.

Grading Optimization also offers real-time visualization, allowing users to observe the optimization process, make adjustments as needed, or let it run until an optimal solution is reached. This is particularly beneficial for civil designers, as it automates the identification of grading objects and the execution of analyses, reducing the time and effort typically spent on grading processes. Additionally, by facilitating efficient monitoring, the tool helps us identify potential issues early on, leading to production...
