Creating Civil 3D Drawings
As you have seen, Roadway Design for
InfraWorks 360 is an amazingly powerful tool
for creating, visualizing, and analyzing your
road designs. Even so, the detailed design is still
in the hands of AutoCAD Civil 3D. The Civil 3D
environment is very different from InfraWorks.
It is built on AutoCAD and uses the DWG
format. To easily go from InfraWorks to Civil
3D, a translation tool is a must—and the View
