Tools for Civil 3D
Catch model health problems while you design, not at QC. Three tools that warn when data is lost, audit every drawing, and show what an edit will affect before you make it.
Save one person 6 hours of rework and it’s paid for
At the U.S. median civil engineer wage of $48.48 an hour, 6 hours is about $290.1 Tools for Civil 3D costs $299, once, for your whole company.
What’s in the package
C3DGuard
Warns the moment EXPLODE, BURST, an xref bind or a moved xref destroys Civil 3D data, and flags unusual drawing growth on save.
C3DAudit
Keeps an audit report of layers, styles, xrefs, surfaces, alignments, corridors and pipe networks, updated after every save.
C3DImpact
Before you edit an alignment, surface or profile, lists the corridors, profiles, sheets and pipes that depend on it, so you see what changes before it changes.
You control the warnings
- Each user picks in one settings dialog: warnings every time, once per command per session, or off
- Optional MOVE, STRETCH, ROTATE and SCALE warnings, each one off until a user ticks it
