At our next 30 min. Workout session we’ll be walking through a new add-on for Civil 3D called “Project Explorer”. The Project Explorer represents a single, modeless dialog box where you can (among other things) view, edit and report on content stored within a civil model. The Project Explorer is included with the 2021 AEC Collection. That said, the installation media is also compatible with the 2020 version of Civil 3D.
This will be our first 30 min. Workout with a cliff-hanger ending! The goal on December 3rd is to demonstrate Project Explorer “basics” such that attendees can start using the tool immediately after the session. We will then come back on Thursday December 17th for a deeper dive exploration into what the Project Explorer has to offer!

Do you collaborate with firms that use Civil 3D to model roadway designs? Have you wondered how Civil 3D workflows (surfaces, alignments, profiles, sections, etc.) might compare/contrast to the civil infrastructure software you currently use? If you are interested, I’ve created a “Civil 3D Test Drive” recording that walks through the basics of using Civil 3D.
In less than two hours, I demonstrate a multitude of concepts including: Civil 3D interface, Surface creation & editing, Alignment creation & editing, Profile creation & editing, Offset Alignments & Profiles, Assemblies, Corridor modeling, Corridor targeting, Intersections, Superelevation, Cross Sections, Earthwork & Material calculations, and Automated sheet creation.
If you are interested in piloting Civil 3D on a future project, this recording will walk you through the basics of how the application works, how civil content is created, labeled, and stylized, and how the dynamic relationships between objects allow design modifications to update all affected objects, labels, calculations and sheets.
