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.

AutoCAD software unlocks intelligent and connected design collaboration across people, devices, and platforms that will improve design efficiency and ease management of design projects. Learn how you can unlock this experience for you and your team by connecting the best of Forma Data Management—the cloud-based document management and common data environment—with AutoCAD.

When a large-scale infrastructure project gets started, you'll need to use tools in the Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection to work with your data efficiently. The information in this session will reduce the time it takes to process huge files, from processing LiDAR-based surface models in ReCap software to implementing Autodesk Forma workflows. Speed up open times, improve collaboration, and learn best practices you can use immediately. We'll dive into topics that include: determining when to break up files using Data Shortcuts, managing .mms files for large surface models, using Forma Data Management software for data management, and adjusting AutoCAD settings for optimal performance.
