Surfaces - The First Foundational Component to Designs within Civil 3D

Within any Civil 3D design, surfaces, alignments, and profiles are often considered the three major foundational components required to build a true Civil infrastructure design model. In Chapter 4, Configuring Survey Data with Civil 3D, we were afforded the benefits of having our survey data already being converted to 2D and 3D geometry, making up our survey model.

In Chapter 5, Leveraging Points, Lines, and Curves, we reviewed many of the preparational tasks that we need to perform to process surveyed data into 2D geometry to be displayed in our survey model.

In this chapter, we’ll begin by focusing on surfaces as the root foundation 3D component that we will use to reference and build additional 3D components from. That said, key topics that will be covered in this chapter include the following:

  • Generating a surface model
  • Understanding surface styles
  • Surface manipulation and management...
