Description
Modeling water distribution systems has always been a tedious process. AutoCAD Civil 3D offers tools that will greatly assist you with this process. For horizontal and vertical layouts, AutoCAD Civil 3D can model just about any situation you’ll run into. In this class, we see how to create a 3D model of a water distribution system, edit the system to account for those design changes, and analyze it for design errors. Note that this class does not get into hydraulic analysis.
