About This Book

Exploring AutoCAD Civil 3D 2019 textbook introduces the users to the powerful Building Information Modeling (BIM) solution, AutoCAD Civil 3D. The BIM solution in AutoCAD Civil 3D helps create and visualize a coordinated data model. This data model can then be used to design and analyze a civil engineering project for its optimum and cost-effective performance. This textbook has been written considering the needs of the professionals such as engineers, surveyors, watershed and storm water analysts, land developers and CAD technicians, who wish to learn and explore the usage and abilities of AutoCAD Civil 3D in their respective domains. This textbook provides comprehensive text and graphical representation to explain various concepts and procedures required in designing solutions for various infrastructure works. The accompanying tutorials and exercises, which relate to the real world projects, help you better understand the tools in AutoCAD Civil 3D.This textbook consists of 13 chapters covering Points Creations, Surface Creations, Surface Analysis, Corridor Modeling, Pipe Networks, Pressure Networks, and Parcels and so on. The chapters are organized in a pedagogical sequence to help users understand the concepts easily. Each chapter begins with a command section that provides a detailed explanation of the commands and tools in AutoCAD Civil 3D. The chapters in this textbook cover the basic as well as advanced concepts in AutoCAD Civil 3D such as COGO points, surfaces and surface analysis, alignments, profiles, sections, grading, assemblies, corridor modeling, earthwork calculations, and pipe and pressure networks. This edition covers the description of all enhancements and newly introduced tools. Some of the Salient Features of this textbook are as follows:

  • Consists of 13 chapters that are arranged in pedagogical sequence.
  • Comprehensive coverage of concepts and tools covering the scope of the software.
  • Contains 808 pages, 50 tutorials, about 26 exercises, and more than 770 illustrations.
  • Real-world engineering projects used in tutorials, exercises, and explaining various tools and concepts.
  • Step-by-step examples to guide the users through the learning process.
  • Additional information provided throughout the book in the form of tips and notes.
  • Self-Evaluation test, Review Questions, and Exercises at the end of each chapter so that the users can assess their knowledge.

Working with Profiles


After completing this chapter, you will be able to:
ā€¢ Understand the concept of profiles
ā€¢ Create a surface profile
ā€¢ Create a layout profile
ā€¢ Create multiple, stacked, and quick profiles
ā€¢ Create profile label styles and view styles
ā€¢ Create band sets and band styles
ā€¢ Use profile properties

Profiles
Alignments and profiles are the main components of a road design project. Profiles are graphical representations of the surface elevations along the horizontal alignment, as shown in Figure 6-1. They help you view the terrain along a specified alignment. A profile view object is used to store and display the information about the profile. It displays and maintains the profiles along with its associated information such as the length, start and end points, and station and elevation data of the alignment that it represents. Moreover, a profile view object creates and controls the actual grid in which the profile data will be displayed along with the bands of data that you want to display.


Types of Profiles
There are different types of profiles and these are discussed next.

Existing Ground/Surface Profile
The Existing Ground (EG) profile is created from an existing surface and shows the variations in the surface elevation along the required alignment.

Finished Ground/Layout/Design/Proposed Profile
The Finished Ground (FG) profile is created from an existing surface. This type of profile is created based on certain design requirements. You can draft the FG profile using the Profile Layout Tools toolbar in the same way as you create an alignment using the Alignment Layout Tools toolbar. You will learn how to use the Profile Layout Tools toolbar later in this chapter.

Superimposed Profile
A superimposed profile is created by superimposing one profile view on the other profile view.

Corridor Profile
A corridor profile is created from the feature line of a corridor. A profile can be displayed in a single profile view or multiple profile views. The single profile view displays the elevation variation (profile) of the selected station along the alignment in a single profile view. While, the multiple profile views displays shorter segments of a profile in individual profile view grids. All profile...
