Non-linear design is when a typical, cross section-based design does not generate the intended result. Typically for designs that are non-parallel, such as driveways, car parks, commercial / Industrial, residential & retaining wall projects. In this webinar, our expert, Jonathan Taylor will show you how to use the Civil Site Design tools to tackle these types of projects. Exploring Grading Strings and surface based design, including staple tools such as Insert Sections, Surface Extend, Design Constraints and Model Builder. Stick around towards the end where you can see how to use the Driveway Checker to review the proposed crossing.
