Why should I use Civil 3D for designing roads and highways?
Civil 3D makes road and highway design faster, easier, and more accurate. It has special tools to create alignments, profiles, cross-sections, and calculate earthwork easily. With Civil 3D, you can draw the exact path of the road, including curves and straight parts. It shows you how the road will look from the top and from the side. Can Civil 3D calculate cut and fill? Yes! Civil 3D can automatically calculate how much soil you need to cut or add (fill) when building a road. This helps plan your construction costs better.
