Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Land development is a complex process that involves the evaluation, planning, engineering, and construction of improvements on a piece of land based on codes and regulations set by the municipality and regulatory agencies.
Planners provide conceptual and alternative layout options to the developers. Surveyors provide a service of gathering all existing conditions that is shared with the development team. Civil engineers provide a variety of services for land development projects including grading and drainage design, utility design, roadway design, agency approval, and project management. The contractor provides services for the actual construction of the approved design.
Civil engineers, architects, and surveyors use the AEC Collection combined with Autodesk Construction Cloud to better design land development projects and increase collaboration using the power of the cloud.
