Introduced in the 2023.2 update, this tool allows for the creation of linear, slope, and elevation transitions directly on feature lines, reducing the need for complex custom subassemblies.
The visualization interface during the optimization process was updated to show real-world convergence plots. Engineers can monitor exactly how the algorithm is balancing earthwork volumes in real-time, allowing them to stop the process early if a viable solution is reached. Summary of Key Feature Enhancements Feature Area Key 2023 Update Primary Benefit Overhauled UI with layer filtering Saves hours on complex intersection targeting Pressure Pipes Cut-length definitions & joint deflection Accurate material takeoffs and real-world design Project Explorer Full ribbon integration & Property Set reporting Streamlined data validation and custom reporting Subassembly Composer Dynamic PKT version syncing Eliminates manual re-importing of custom parts Grading Optimization Enhanced convergence plots and slope constraints Faster, more reliable site earthwork balancing
Dynamically link property set data to extracted solids.
: Now supports catchment objects and allows viewing, editing, and reporting on property set data. civil 3d 2023 updated
Corridor design received substantial updates, aiming to make modeling faster and more flexible.
Historically, mapping corridor targets (alignments, profiles, and feature lines) in complex intersections or highway designs was tedious. The 2023 update completely redesigned the Corridor Target Dialog Box:
The expanded turnout and crossover catalogs feature more standard industry sizes. Introduced in the 2023
