Introduction

 Introduction:

I have also used the book myself to teach classes in a corporate environment, and I am very

pleased with how it performs. As you work your way through the book as a teacher, a student, or

an end user, you’ll find that the first two chapters, although very important, are more

general and introductory. After that, you’re going to take a journey through the completion of a

residential land development project—start to finish.

▶ It should be basic enough to enable anyone to learn Civil 3D.

▶ It should be in-depth enough to enable a person to be productive using Civil 3D for basic tasks.

▶ It should foster understanding by associating the things you do in Civil 3D with familiar things

you see every day.

▶ The examples and exercises should be based on the real world.

▶ The book should not simply demonstrate random software features but should also teach the

process of project completion using Civil 3D.
