To coincide with the Autodesk 2024 release, Civil site design v24 will be released featuring a number of new and improved features, here is an overview of what’s in this release.
A Civil Site Design toolspace has been developed from which users can design and edit & manage the roads and modelling content within their projects. The dockable palette will give users the benefit of contextually being able to access the majority of civil site design functionality via the toolspace which would normally be found in multiple ribbon tabs.
Found in the Toolspace, users can now create Civil Site Design surfaces from 2D objects in the drawing. This feature is great for designers in receipt of 2d survey data – where no 3D information is present. Creating CSD cogo points from your 2d data, Civil Site Design immediately builds a surface and enables users to being designing faster.
The template editor has undergone a visual refresh with some additional options to now change the display and manage the sharing of templates. Found under the file pulldown, the template packing provides teams with the ability to exchange selections of templates and store them for specific local authorities or stakeholders.
Model Viewer now includes some terrain analysis features which will shade your civil site Design and Civil 3D surface elevations and highlight road slope and crossfall ranges.
A selection of Catchment analysis tools has also been added where users can now analyse and display ponding, catchments and low points within any surface in civil site design, outputting the analysis back to the drawing.
You will have access to the update if you have a current annual subscription or a active maintenance plan on your perpetual license. If you do not currently have an active maintenance plan, please email us at sales@civilsurveysolutions.com.au to arrange an upgrade to your account.
Stringer Topo V24.20 has been released to support the BricsCAD V24 (as well as current releases of Autodesk software), including a number of new and improved features.
We've enhanced the superelevation tools to make it easier for you to quickly and easily assess output of rules-based superelevation, and to make it simple for you to use this tool to vary pavement crossfalls and widths.
Civil Site Design, Stringer Topo & Corridor EZ V24.10 forms will accomodate 4K text scaling.
Bulk earthworks play a key part on many projects and determining the volumes can be a time consuming process. Released in Civil Site Design V23.10, the Subgrade Model Manager (SMM) was developed to assist users with creating subgrade surfaces of any model within the project.
