Annotation of grading plans can be tedious, time-consuming work. With Label Genie from the CIM Project Suite, you’ll learn how to automate 85% of your labeling. Whether it’s spot elevations, slope labels, or mtext, Label Genie will turn hours into minutes for grading plans.

Learning Objectives:

• Automatically insert surface spot and slope labels on multiple sheets at once
• Complete grading plan annotation in a fraction of the time
• Save grading annotation templates for quick repeat on other projects
• Spend more time on grading and less on labeling

Le personnel de gestion de la production de Civil 3D et d’AutoCAD bénéficiera de la suite CIM Manager. Les outils de création et d’édition automatisées de styles, de calques et de types de lignes rendront les équipes de production beaucoup plus efficaces. Ce webinaire passera en revue toute la suite d’outils que l’on trouve dans la suite CIM Manager de SolidCAD.

Learning Objectives:

• Accélérez la gestion des calques du gabarit, des objets et des styles grâce à la synchronisation dynamique des tables d’Excel.
• Améliorez la gestion des gabarits avec l’annotation automatisée ainsi que le suivi et le remplacement des styles Civil 3D.
• Automatisez la gestion du jeu d’identification de description et de la base de données des préfixes de figure grâce à la synchronisation des tables d’Excel.
• Créez et modifiez facilement des types de ligne sans avoir à gérer des fichiers .lin complexes.

Grading of residential developments can be complicated. Corridors handle the road grading, but when it comes to lots and common areas, Civil 3D falls short. This is where Auto Grader comes into play. By defining “parent” feature lines, such as the right-of-way, Auto Grader will automatically create side and back of lot feature lines based on 3D parameters defined by the user. The same can be done for house pads.

Learning Objectives:

• Automate lot grading based on design parameter inputs
• Update lot gradings as road gradings change, automatically
• Auto-insert house pads based on 3D offsets from the road
• Automate surface creation, as break lines are managed with Auto Grader

Pipe Network labeling can be a tedious task. We often need different label styles depending on the part type. When you have 75+ parts in a drawing, that becomes a large task. With Label Genie from the CIM Project Suite, users can define label style mappings based on their parts list. When and entire network is to be labeled, each part and size will received the appropriate label.

Learning Objectives:

• Define detailed label style mapping based on parts lists
• Automatically insert unique labels for different types of parts
• Label multiple drawings and labels at once
• When Pipe Network labels fall short, automatically insert Mtext or Mleaders on pipes and structures

Even with the broad set of tools available in Civil 3D, survey users often get overlooked. Check out this webinar to learn about Productivity tools for Surveyors in Civil 3D. We’ll cover data processing solutions from the CIM Project Suite, as well as standard optimization tools in the CIM Manager Suite from SolidCAD.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn to quickly prep data for construction staking.
• Speed up data importing processes, including how to deal with multiple survey code sets.
• Generate project-specific legends, showing only what was surveyed.
• Clean up Civil 3D templates with ease using the Survey Template Manager.

Pond grading in Civil 3D typically requires many offsets of feature lines. These relationships between top of pond, benches and slopes are often pre-defined. With Auto Grader from the CIM Project Suite, users can define one pond baseline, then using slope and offset parameters defined in Auto Grader, create all subsequent feature lines automatically. If the pond baseline feature line changes, simply refresh the grading family in Auto Grader and all dependent feature lines will update.

Learning Objectives:

• Grade ponds in a fraction of the time through rules-based feature line automation
• Save pond design templates for future use in other drawings and projects
• Don't worry about managing surface breaklines, since Auto Grader handles it
• Focus more on design and less on tedious feature line editing

Même avec le large éventail d’outils disponibles dans Civil 3D, le volet arpentage est souvent négligé. Consultez ce webinaire pour en savoir plus sur les outils de productivité créés spécifiquement pour les arpenteurs. Nous couvrirons les solutions de traitement des données de la suite Project CIM, ainsi que les outils d’optimisation des normes dans la suite CIM Manager de SolidCAD.

Learning Objectives:

• Apprenez à préparer rapidement les données pour l’implantation sur le terrain.
• Accélérez les processus d’importation de données, y compris la façon de gérer plusieurs jeux de codes.
• Générer des légendes spécifiques au projet, montrant uniquement ce qui a été relevé.
• Nettoyez facilement les modèles Civil 3D à l’aide du gestionnaire du gabarit d’arpentage.
