Build Better Infrastructure – The New Features in Civil 3D 2021
Another release of Civil 3D just became available, just as you probably finished installing the latest 2020 “fix.” That was somewhat sarcastic, but I do some see much needed improvements to Autodesk Civil 3D 2021 and all other 2021 products.

Mastering Civil 3D's Intersection Wizard to Create a 4-Way Intersection
Civil 3D contains many engineering tools for roadway design. One of these tools is the Intersection wizard.
