CivilCAD 10 - Roads

CivilCAD 10-Roads allows roads planning and design, earthworks design and calculation, and all-inclusive surveying and treatment of upper and underground infrastructure. The software combines powerful design options, accurate and high-speed results, and supreme usability setting new standards for roads engineers worldwide.

Roads contractors, earthworks and land development contractors which are using the software, acknowledge CivilCAD 10-Roads as their primary tool for getting the job done.

Features

Horizontal and Vertical Alignment Design

• Changes made to certain segments of the road’s alignment geometry are reflected in the vertical alignment
• Automatic highlight of the cut-fill transition point in horizontal alignment
• Sub layers associated with existing, structure and design layers are differentiated and displayed according to the defined material and thickness
• Unique and advanced visibility evaluation mechanism with export and reporting capabilities
• Ability to attach a ditch to an offset reference-line in the cross section
• Automatic alert and delete mechanism of an overlapping area between two topography surfaces
• Ability to automatically create frequent backups of the project revisions with quick restore capabilities
• Ability to extend existing road design using automatically obtainable parameters
• Automatic road segments selection
• Visual indication of cut-fill minimum and maximum extents
• Rapid and accurate geometric calculations along road
• Complete horizontal alignment design set of tools including curves transition of clothoids or cubic-parabola

Powerful Cross Section Design

• Detailed underground and upper ground utilities display in cross sections
• Layers information can be separated to support authorities standards
• Cross section includes sub layers associated with existing, structure and design primary layers
• Side ditches and gutters definition according to cut, fill or in-between situations
• Automatic height based side slopes cut or fill definition
• Automatic emphasize of parallel and intersecting roads levels
• Automatic side berms design
• Ability to define super elevation per cross section segment
• Ability to accurately place blocks in cross sections
