Civil 3D is an infrastructure design and documentation solution based on information modeling (BIM) technology. Civil 3D is intended for engineers working on transportation, land management and water protection projects. Users are able to coordinate projects, explore design alternatives, simulate facility operations, and produce high-quality documentation.

Civil 3D allows you to create more complex and information-rich projects by improving platform performance and expanding user functionality. New product features include work with pressure pipelines, improved surveying, master maps, and railroad track design. Improvements have been made to many transport design functions such as corridor shaping, 3D navigation, query execution, and surface boundary definition.

Many users of "vertical" AutoCAD products have noticed that recently any AutoCAD product with advanced functionality consists, in fact, of AutoCAD as a basis and add-on for Mechanical, Electrical, Architecture, etc. Alas, the developers, as before, post only full-format distributions. That is, if you want to get your hands on Mechanical and Architecture, you have to download two huge packages, most of the content of which duplicates each other. In this regard, I decided to start releasing distributions of a new type, containing only an add-on. Now, to install all the same Mechanical and Architecture, you will need to download basic AutoCAD and two small add-ons. Less download, more compact storage - this is the main idea of ​​assemblies of this format!
Where is Civil 3D, you ask? After all, the word "AutoCAD" is missing from its name ?! It is absent, but it is he who serves as the base anyway - AutoCAD! That is why all the same distribution optimization methods are applicable to this product as to the "vertical" AutoCAD products!
