Starting a Project
Estimated time for completion: 15 minutes
In this practice you will walk through the steps of creating
project-based Data Shortcuts folders.
Task 1 - Set the Working folder.
In this task, you will set up a new working folder as the location
in which to store Data Shortcut projects. The default working
folder for Data Shortcut projects is C:\Civil 3D Projects.
1. Open DS-A1-Shortcuts.dwg from the C:\Civil 3D
Projects\Civil3D-Training\Data Shortcuts folder.
2. In the Manage tab>Data Shortcuts panel, select Set Working
Folder, as shown in Figure 2.
Figure( 2)
3. In the Browse For Folder dialog box, select the Civil 3D
Projects folder and click , as shown on the left
in Figure 3 Type Learning Data Shortcuts as the folder name
and click , as shown on the right in
Figure 4.

This help sheet covers the method for importing survey points
into a Civil 3D drawing and managing the points in Civil 3D
point groups. The data in the file can be in many different
formats (comma delimited, space delimited, etc.) and in
different orders (PNEZD, PENZD, etc.). The format and order is
chosen when exporting the data from the data collector. You can
also open the downloaded file using EXCEL or NOTEPAD and
view the data. You will need to know which format and order
your data is in before importing.
Note: Point Name can be alpha or numeric, point number can
only be numeric Typically ND GPS data is imported using the
Name NEZD comma delineated point file format.
The following examples assume the data is in point number,
northing, easting, elevation, and point description (PNEZD) and
is comma separated.

the point group you want them to go in. However, you may have
to edit the point group to remove points that do not represent the
point group. 1. For example, if you check the Existing Group
point group, you would need to edit that point group to remove
points on top of a wall or a tbm that is not at ground level.
iv. The advanced options should not be checked unless you are
transforming points from one coordinate system to another (see
help sheet).

You can edit any of the fields by simply clicking the field you
want to edit and overwriting the data. You can also right click in
one of the fields and choose from a number of options.
6) You can reposition the point label (the dragged state property
style will control how the point looks and behaves when the
label is moved from its original position.) Use the appropriate
grip to move the label.
After selecting the point, hover over the grips to see the options.

o No Display is set to include all points in the drawing, but the

Assemblies
Assemblies represent the cross-sectional composition of the road
design. Assemblies are collections of individual
subassembly components representing items such as medians,
lanes, curbs, sidewalks, and shoulders. An example is shown in
Figure 15. The assembly object serves as the baseline to which
the designer snaps together any number of premade
subassembly pieces from the Civil 3D Tool Palette.

Assemblies may contain functionality that is critical in the
building of complex road systems, such as intersections,
conditional daylighting, and superelevation. An example of an
assembly with conditional daylighting is shown in Figure. The
steepness of the cut condition is automatically adjusted when a
rock type surface is encountered.
