Instructor Led. This course introduces surveyors to the functionality in Stringer Topo to work with COGO Points and surfaces in Civil 3D. Explore Civil 3D and Stringer Topo to manage points and point groups, create survey linework and build Civil 3D surfaces, generate legend tables, and look at the cadastral tools in Civil 3D and Stringer Topo. Acquire essential skills for leveraging Stringer Topo for your various survey projects.
Instructor Led. This comprehensive program empowers surveyors to use their surveyed point data to create, edit, and publish topographical surveys within Civil 3D. Automate your survey import, addition of survey linework and automation of surface breaklines to create your production output in Civil 3D, including Civil 3D Points and Surfaces.
Throughout the course, participants will engage in practical exercises and real-world examples, fostering a hands-on learning environment. Our experienced instructors will guide you through the setup of Civil 3D, survey reduction process, editing of survey data to manage survey linework and surface breakline creation, and publishing of outputs.
Introduction to Civil 3D and Stringer Topo. Start your exploration with an introduction to Autodesk Civil 3D, gaining an understanding of its interface, tools, and capabilities.
Civil 3D Points. Dive into the world of point data within Civil 3D. Learn how to efficiently create, manage, and leverage Civil 3D Points and Point Groups, unlocking the potential for precise data representation and analysis in your projects.
Civil 3D Surfaces. Explore the power of surface modeling in Civil 3D. Gain hands-on experience in creating and manipulating surfaces, essential for representing the existing terrain and forming the basis for subsequent design work.
Civil 3D Parcels. Navigate the intricacies of parcel creation and management in Civil 3D. Understand how to define and modify parcels, facilitating the efficient design and analysis of land development projects.
Traverse Editing. Learn how to apply traverse edits to your survey data, using Civil 3D and Stringer topo.
Stringer Topo Settings. Dive into the settings in Stringer Topo to control how survey linework is created and managed, based on point descriptions. Control whether you have 2D polylines, 3D polylines and/or breaklines created based on point codes.
Survey Data Import. Explore the process for importing coordinated point data and raw survey observation files in Civil 3D. Leverage the Stringer Connect interface to manage raw survey data, edit control points, view radiations, review the survey pickup and generate Civil 3D points in the drawing linked to the survey data.
Survey Linework and Breaklines. Control survey linework based on point codes and explore the various point editing tools to correct survey pickup errors and enhance survey linework creation. Leverage the Survey String Manager to rapidly navigate the survey point and string data, highlight self intersecting strings, generate crossing breakline reports, change connection point order, reorder out-of-sequence point pickupts and edit point codes to create arcs between points.
3D Model Viewing. Master the Model Viewer interface to quickly identify survey errors in 3D, updating as you edit the survey and breaklines. The Model Viewer is a separate window showing you a data accurate, fully rendered model of your surveyed surface/s, survey strings and points.
Survey Tools and Legend Tables. Create your own customised legend tables and add multi scaled symbols for points (for trees). Explore conformance reports to compare points to surfaces, alignments and lines. Review the various cadastral tools to create traverses and radiations, label linework, offset hatching and label areas.
This course is specifically tailored to Civil 3D users and is not suited to AutoCAD/BricsCAD users. AutoCAD/BricsCAD users are encouraged to attend the Stringer Topo for CAD Platforms course instead of this one.
