About the Instructor

I am a professional Engineer with degree in Transportation Engineering. Working in a multinational Consultancy Firm as a Senior Highway Design Engineer. I have been a part of many Mega projects of National and International Importance.

As a Highway Design Engineer, AutoCAD Civil 3D is my primary design tool. I have excellently developed my skills on AutoCAD Civil 3D over a period of many years, working on several Highway Design projects.

Key Features of This Course

One of the most comprehensive AutoCAD Civil 3D course online with around 90 video lectures.
Around 8.5 hours of video lectures for your extensive learning.
All lesson files included for download.
Taught by a Professional Engineer having extensive hands-on experience of AutoCAD Civil 3D.
Course is based on a real life example Residential Land Development Project.

Project-oriented Course

The course lessons are project-oriented and all of the tools and commands are taught with their real-world applications. As you work your way through this course, you are going to take a journey through the completion of a residential land development project from start to finish. The topics are presented as though you have never touched a CAD program before. Whatever you learn and practice in this course will be relevant to the real life practices.

Which version of AutoCAD Civil 3D is used?

I have used AutoCAD Civil 3D 2018for recording this course but it is equally good for AutoCAD Civil 3D 2015and later versions. But it is recommended that you have at least installed AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016on your computer as the practice files are compatible with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016and higher versions.

Soon we will try to update the course with a tutorial on User Interface of AutoCAD Civil 3D 2023.
