Advanced Roadway Modeling Tool Belt for Everyday Use

In the previous two chapters, we had an opportunity to unwrap all of the land development and roadway modeling-focused tools available to us within Civil 3D, while also learning some very practical applications of how we can utilize them to further progress our residential subdivision design. Not only did we learn how to use these particular tools to create design objects within Civil 3D, but we also began to understand how best to manage these objects and the significance of each one to the overall design.

In this chapter, we’ll start off by refining our proposed surface models a little more through corridor manipulation efforts to ensure that our residential subdivision will drain during rain events. Refinement of our proposed surface models will be necessary before we consider putting on our Utility Modeling Tool Belt for Everyday Use in Chapter 12 and jump into the world of utility infrastructure that ultimately services...
