While AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016 SP1 includes an assortment of updates, I thought it was most important to get the word out on some improvements related to the key initiative of enabling interoperability and co-existence between Autodesk civil engineering software and Bentley civil engineering solutions. #AUTODESK CIVIL 3D SUBSCRIPTION SOFTWARE# It’s easiest to understand if I break the improvements into 2 areas. DGN interoperability and visual fidelityĪutodesk and Bentley have implemented incremental improvements over the past five years to facilitate translation of drawings between.

AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016 SP1 introduces some subtle, yet high-value improvements that will better ensure visual fidelity. The goal is to be able to use AutoCAD Civil 3D to create. DGN files that are indistinguishable from those that were originally authored in MicroStation. The goal here is to enable AutoCAD Civil 3D to graphically match how complex linetypes are displayed in Microstation We’ve made a number of improvements related to linetype display within AutoCAD Civil 3D.

AutoCAD Civil 3D now supports fixed-length linetypes (for example, a line that represents roadway line striping where the line/gap lengths represent the actual design length).

3D polylines can now display complex linetypes.

Prior to this, 3D polylines only supported continuous linetype display

There are also a number of improvements to the Export AutoCAD Civil 3D Drawing utility when exporting to.

DGN that are meant to ensure visual fidelity when the file is opened in Microstation. In order to support this initiative, Autodesk has developed a State Kit that allows users to use AutoCAD Civil 3D in a way that is consistent with ODOT standards.Ĭivil 3D 2016 Productivity Pack 1 Highlights These types of enhancements support states like Ohio, where in October 2012, the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) announced that they would begin accepting a deliverable that was created in AutoCAD Civil 3D.
