What is civil engineering software?
Civil engineering software encompasses a range of tools to help civil engineers during both the design and construction process.
These programs can help in every stage of your project including drafting & documenting, designing, visualizing & analyzing.
Types of civil engineering and infrastructure design
Autodesk software helps multidisciplinary teams better integrate the plan, design, build, and operations phases of a project.
-
Civil engineering
Save time and resources by capturing survey data in hours versus days, and improve insights at each stage of your surveying and site development work.
-
Structural engineering
Better anticipate issues and assess information throughout your project with BIM (Building Information Modeling). Design and build bridges and tunnels with better predictability.
-
Transportation engineering
Promote greater project efficiency and delivery with infrastructure software that provides BIM tools for transportation such as roads, rail, airports, and ports.
-
Civil construction
Improve coordination and delivery with BIM for virtual design and construction. Give all stakeholders access to project information almost anytime and anywhere.
How is civil engineering used?
Aalborg Energie Technik
AET uses BIM to develop biomass plants that generate environmentally-friendly energy using wood chips, corn stalks, and even chicken droppings.
Bureau of Reclamation
Hi-tech tools such as reality capture and 3D modeling are helping this US government agency manage and protect the Glen Canyon Dam for generations to come.
Galliford Try Costain and Atkins
This partnership used AutoCAD Plant 3D to expand the Liverpool Wastewater Treatment Works, gaining more efficient operations.
