Grading parking lots incorporates complex design concepts and creative use of Civil 3D tools. Feature lines have always been the reliable standard, but recent additions to corridors make their inclusion a must. Through a combination of new features and solid workflows, we can now produce a faster, more dynamic process while still maintaining flexibility. We'll begin this class with a story of how Kimley-Horn and Autodesk collaborated to improve site design by improving how curbs are built using corridors. The ability to now create dozens of baselines and regions in a few clicks (along with other recent new features and conditional subassemblies) makes for a much faster workflow. We'll also give guidance on when to use corridors, feature lines, or both. We believe corridors for parking lot grading has finally arrived! Join John Armendariz and Brian Levendowski, along with Tim Yarris, Civil 3D product manager, to learn about these new tools, and how to apply them to your projects.

Pressure networks in Civil 3D have been around for a long time, yet very few people use them. The tools being difficult to use has played a major role in this. The good news is that with Civil 3D 2021 this has all changed. Pressure networks received a major overhaul that make using them worth the switch from gravity pipe networks, or whatever stopgap measure you might be using.
We’ll demonstrate how to use pressure networks for watermain, leveraging the new path-based workflow that links pressure pipe runs to alignments and profiles. Gone are the days of individual part-based design, including weird bend rotations and clumsy vertical design. Whether you only show watermain in plan, or need full profile and sections views, pressure networks are the way to go moving forward. So, come join presenters Charlie Ogden from Autodesk and Brian Levendowski from Kimley-Horn and learn why now is the time to make the switch!
