Software > CadApps Advanced Road Design

Intersection, roundabouts and cul-de-sacs are the most time consuming aspects of any subdivision design.  Advanced Road Design works in Autodesk Land Desktop or Civil 3D to complete these tasks in minutes rather than hours.  A complete Subdivision design with multiple streets and intersections can be designed, volumes calculated, fully drafted and construction stakeout created in under an hour.

Key Features:

Road Design - Fast and Efficient

  • • Dynamic design interaction between horizontal alignment, profiles, and cross sections.
  • • Automatically generate volumes.
  • • Show services in profiles and cross-section.


Road Reconstruction - Interactive

  • • Multi-string design.
  • • Use of design contraints assists in obtaining matching levels.
  • • Tools for generating trial vertical gradings for strings.
  • • Combined viewer to check both long and cross-sections simultaneously.
  • • Driveway profiles and accessibility.


Intersection

  • • Automatically generate curb returns.
  • • Intersection contouring in seconds.
  • • 3D visualization of intersection.


Cul-de-sac


  • • Matches levels to incoming road.
  • • Generates curb levels from incoming road vertical grading.
  • • Interactive generation of curb levels using VC designer.
  • • Rapid contouring of design.


Roundabout and Complex Intersections

  • • Complex intersections can easily be built up from the incoming roads by adding traffic islands and roundabouts.
  • • Independant vertical grading for each element if necessary.
  • • Easy to build a contour model for checking purposes.

Plotting

  • • Automatic drafting of design to company standards.
  • • Create and save multiple styles of plotting output.

Useability

  • • Easy to use
  • • Logical menu layout
  • • Step-by-step design process

Standards

  • • Imperial and Metric
  • • AASHTO

Licensing

  • • Standalone or Network License

Software Requirements

  • • Requires Autodesk Land Desktop or Civil 3D
  • • Win2000 or WinXP Professional

Hardware Requirements

  • • Same as Autodesk Land Desktop or Civil 3D
  • • Minimum 512 MB Ram
