Purchase Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 cheap
AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 is a great software for surveying, infrastructure analysis, documentation and design for civil engineering, including transportation, land development and environmental projects.

AutoCAD Civil 3D is the building information modeling solution (BIM) for civil engineering offered by Autodesk. It was designed for digitally exploring the physical and functional characteristics of a project, before it's built. It can create coordinates, data-rich models, that allow to analyze a project in the earliest stages of design.

One of the great things about it is that it allows an entire project team to work from the same up-to-date model, and stay coordinated throughout all the phases of the project. It includes all the functionality of AutoCAD Map 3D and offers the tools to migrate designs across to GIS systems for asset management.

There are various features offered by this software for surveyors, such as fully functional land survey processing capability, automatic creation of Survey figures and points with symbols, full surface modeling toolset, or importing, viewing and styling Point Cloud data.

Design engineers also have several features that they'll find very useful, including horizontal and vertical road alignment tools, standards-based highway design tools, customizable highway superelevation, junction design wizard, create 3D road models with parametric templates, interactive cross-section editing environment, mass haul diagrams, earthworks and material volumes, intelligent grading objects and many others.

HARNESSING AUTOCAD CIVIL 3D 2011, introduces readers to Autodesk Civil 3D 2011, the very latest release of this software. Strategically developed exercises printed within the book are supported by over 600 pages of online text emphasizing industry best practices. Online material is available with the access code within the book. This powerful learning tool contains all the information you need to learn the fundamentals of this widely used civil engineering program, all in a single resource. This book includes straightforward explanations of program functionality, as well as exercises that demonstrate how its concepts fit into civil engineering design. Included in this new edition are Superelevation Calculator and Editor, cross section sheets as layouts, curve widening by Design Criteria or Design Rules and drawing Project Association. The processes for performing all of the tasks required to create Civil 3D objects are clearly shown, so that readers will develop a solid foundation in the subject matter. Along with its associated software, this book delivers the type of functionality required to teach all phases of planning, civil engineering, and surveying in any civil engineering course.

The software allows to create surfaces from traditional survey data such as points or breaklines. It offers large data sets from aerial photogrammetry, laser scanning or digital elevation models. A surface can be used as a reference for creating intelligent objects that maintain dynamic relationships to the source data.

The rules-based tools can be used to lay out sanitary and storm drainage systems. It allows to break or join existing pipe networks and structures using graphical and numerical input. The software allows to process earth volumes more easily between existing and proposed surfaces with the composite volume or average end are methods.

The corridor modeling allows to use horizontal and vertical geometry, together with cross selectional components, to help creating a parametrically defined, dynamic 3D model of roads and other transportation systems.

Some of the new features that come with this software include survey tools, visual analysis tools (line-of-sight tools, such as point-to-point and sight distance along a corridor), support for 64-bit operating systems, corridor editing enhancements, Point Clouds, roundabout layout (including signage and striping), superelevation improvements or transportation design enhancements.
