Built models form an integral part of operating Civil Site Design as they combine design elements within the project to create a single model & surface.
Cross section based design can limit designers who want to extend outside a single template and have complex geometry. Model Builder provides the solution.
In this webinar we demonstrate the best practice for using Model Builder and unpack all the functionality to operate it successfully, using a road and parking bay design.

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.
In Civil Site Design V24.10, the Design Data Form has undergone some ergonomic improvements and seen the addition of a new Design Variation – Offset by Polyline.
In Civil Site Design V24.10, the Model Builder Edit/Trim by Selection & Group forms received an update which can have a significant impact on selecting sections for trimming models.
