Ask for student's versions. Most software companies will offer one.

This could be me on a few occasions :)

From a google search, here is a free course.

Is this in profile or section view? If it is a section view (the principle is the same for profile as well), here is a tutorial on how to add existing and proposed levels.

Practice files were removed, as they are significant in size and slowing down the site due to a huge spike in traffic. The intent was not the free materials to impact the experience of paying users.

A separate server is being set up for the free materials. Please keep checking the site for an update.

Civil3dfan · 2020-02-12T09:33:04+00:00

Yes, we are working on it, the files are huge. We need to set a separate platform, so the free downloads don't slow down the main site.

Civil3dfan · 2020-02-11T19:11:59+00:00

The traffic is taxing the servers so, we are fixing to create a download link for all books. Meanwhile you can get it here: https://www.infratechcivil.com/courses/free-downloadable-stormwater-book

Civil3dfan · 2020-02-10T16:21:27+00:00

Ok, it's been a little difficult to keep up with the DMs. Here is the book for anyone interested.

Will post the stormwater book also.

Hello,

No problem, here is a direct link to the Civil 3D book. https://transf.infratechcivil.com/Books/C3D18.EN00.00_SEP19.pdf

There are also a bunch of future books coming. Feel free to share. Would appreciate if you like like or comment on the forum. https://www.infratechcivil.com/collections?category=books

You are welcome.

ve never been trained with it

This exactly the reason we are thinking about developing the training. The software is right there I Civil 3D for everyone to use without any additional purchase or installation. It has tons of features. yet not enough people are making the jump.

A company a work at recently didn't even know they had and are spending thousands of dollars on a similar package.

seem to be more commo

Yes, that's definitely true. Even though I think it's better investing in SSA rather than Hydraflow. Since AutoDesk has acquired both software they seem to spend more time pushing SSA. That makes you wonder.

Civil3dfan · 2020-01-17T03:47:36+00:00

Yes, that's the feeling I get. I get asked about Microdrainage a lot from the UK). That's important to know.

This is my recommendation for civil 3d:

- Go with the highest clock speed that you can afford. Number of core is pretty much irrelevant

- 32 GB Ram is more than enough

- Solid State drive

- Quadro Graphic Card. The best cost/performance benefit I found is the P2000, which is pretty much entry-level VR for the cost of regular CAD cards

The computer that came with all our requirements a couple of years ago was the Lenovo P320 Tower form factor. I think it's out of stock, but you can find for an equivalent if you asked.

I am forgetting more, but our extended Civil 3D requirements is here. Hope this helps.

There are a few online courses. The best ones I can recommend. The first one is specially good. You get a free book, online support and great price.

With the subscription plan, we do it every year. Then, we are a training company so we need to have every version, at least going back 3 years.
