The distributable NWC file exporter enables project teams using Autodesk® Naviswork® software to generate whole-project models for simulation and analysis. Project team members can generate the optimized NWC file directly from their design applications.

AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 is just around the corner. This is so exciting, the LiDAR data can be manipulated in the CAD platform software e.g. AutoCAD 2011, AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 & AutoCAD Map 3D 2011.

As below Youtube video was showing the point cloud enhancements of AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011:

Today I saw my colleagues table have a 3D printing model which is the city model. The model is over 500 piece high-rise building block with the terrain model. The model is mainly emphasized the new development and study how the surrounding building would be impacted. Nowadays the paper plan may not be good enough!

Autodesk Inc. has announced the acquisition of certain assets from BOSS International, Inc. to further expand its water resources analysis capabilities for the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry.

It seems that AutoCAD Civil 3D will be extended to conducting simulation and analysis of design rather than only model-based design solution.

This is the video for introducing a Civil project; this is the civil highway project, in which it was involved to replacing & upgrading the design of the highway and the intersection. It also show the new intersection dialog box of Civil 3D 2010. At the end of the video it show the capability of dynamic change. Let's take a look!

This project is located near Tallahassee in the Florida Panhandle. It involved the softwares have AutoCAD MEP, AutoCAD Civil 3D, Naviswork and Buzzsaw. From design to presentation, those product was fulfilled their requirement. All software can be linked together.

Autodesk's software 2010 have been almost released. Now some of the new feature have been released on Youtube. You can see how's the enhancement of the Civil 3D 2010.

AutoCAD Civil 3D 2009 vs 2010 - Junction Jack has just retired!

This article was mentioned about How can civil engineering businesses best support design projects using a BIM workflow? Actually, this is the solution we're expecting for long time. Parametric change capability &  dynamic model can be optimized to use and all the documentation automatically updates.

I saw Andy Chan yesterday, and ask him why his bag is looks heavy. I found his lover - macbook pro, mac gear and his new Civil 3D 2008 book - A Practical Guide. Although I saw it before but I also take a look immediately. He just got it from publisher.
