Depending on the purpose for the alignment, Civil 3D provides many tools to layout, design, and label alignments. Alignments are a core design objects in Civil 3D and have many direct and indirect dependencies. Editing alignments with dependencies will cause a ripple effect that will keep your designs up to date. Centerline alignments can be assigned Design Criteria to keep your projects in compliance with design standards and notify when a violation occurs.

Points, Lines, and Curves Course Introduction (Course Duration: 50 minutes)
Course Description In this course you will learn the fundamental concepts about points, and how Civil 3D tools can help you draw lines and curves for surveying and engineering tasks.
Points Objects are used on the vast majority of survey and engineering projects for various tasks and applications. Civil 3D has two different point types that include Survey Points and COGO Points. Survey Points are created from the Survey Database, and COGO Points are created directly in the drawing file using the Civil 3D place point tools. This course addresses tools around COGO points, but many principles of point objects can be applied to both point types.
Lines and Curves define the most basic and foundational geometry for Civil 3D objects. AutoCAD provides many tools for drawing lines and curves, but the Civil 3D tools make it easier to construct lines and curves for surveying and engineering tasks. This course will review some of the more common line and curve tools that you can add to your productivity toolset.

Course Description In this course, you will learn about Feature Lines, Gradings, and Grading Groups in Civil 3D, and how to leverage them to grade your designs. Feature lines are 3D objects which can be used as grading footprints, surface breaklines, and as corridor baselines. Feature Lines are used to create projection grading, or Gradings, that target surfaces, elevations, and distances. Gradings that are added to Feature Lines will update with changes made to the Feature Line. The Grading Group is a collection of Gradings and is used to create an Automatic Surface that can be used for volume calculation and balancing. Collectively, these objects can be used to grade your designs, while maintaining a fluid and dynamic 3D model.
