To perform the exercises in this book, you must have AutoCAD Civil 3D 2023 installed on your
computer. It’s recommended that you use the default software setup with two exceptions: Change
your drawing screen colour to white, and dock the command line at the bottom of the screen. This
book contains many screen captures of Civil 3D drawings, which were all produced with these
distinctive changes to the user interface. Also, at times, the exercises refer to drawing entities by
colour, which is sometimes dependent on the background colour.
Zip files are available in imperial and metric units. As you complete the exercises, metric values will
be shown in parentheses. The imperial and metric values for a given item usually are not equivalent,
to avoid using irregular values for the design. For example, the value for the width of a sidewalk
would be shown as 3’ (1m) even though 3’ doesn’t exactly equal 1m.
