Civil Design to Put You in the Passing Lane—What might take days with other civil software, takes just hours, or even minutes, with the powerful, intuitive Carlson Civil 2011.
This is thanks to the Carlson Civil 2011 wide
selection of “power” tools – dozens of brand new commands, along with hundreds of user-driven improvements. Carlson Civil 2011 comes with 64-bit capabilities, is Windows 7 compatible, and works on AutoCAD® or Map® versions 2000, up to and including 2011, and comes with built-in IntelliCAD®6.6— a robust, .dwg-compatible CAD platform that every CAD developer can build upon.
Top new capabilities of Carlson Civil 2011 include Road Rehabilitation commands that were developed specifically to save time and money for those working on the many resurfacing projects currently under way around the country. The commands create designs for specified overlay with milling or leveling.
Other Carlson Civil 2011 enhancements include:
- command for Vehicle Path Tracking, which allows designers to trace wheel paths for vehicle dimensions along centerline;
- the ability to Edit Contours and instantly update the underlying 3D model (updates the underlying TIN surface to match the modified contours), a feature that is unique to Carlson;
- addition of graphic previews of settings within dialog of Draw Profile that includes retention of custom edits of labels;
- added setting for curve definitions, which includes either roadway or railroad curves; and
- a new Draw Plan View Sheets command to create layouts of plan views.
If your civil/survey software is going away, please investigate the affordable, technically advanced options available from Carlson Software -- you'll be glad you did.
Carlson Civil 2011 is a superior
choice for civil technicians, designers and engineers. It provides the highest level of robust
automation and ease-of-use of any civil design solution available
today and has the deepest, most consistent code base in the civil engineering industry. Using Carlson Civil will increase your productivity and enable you to create better
designs in less time. Carlson Civil 2011 is available now. To find a

Site Prep Magazine Case Study: Carlson Software Handles Highway Project's Surprises
Despite tough specifications, Ideker Inc., a construction company in St. Joseph, Mo., recently earned a bonus of $1 million from the state of Missouri for finishing a road resurfacing project well before the state’s deadline thanks to Carlson Civil and design work by
Brad Phipps of Applied Construction Technology. For Detailed Information.
“Applied Construction Technology, Olathe, Kan., used the latest road profile optimization tools in Carlson Civil Suite 2010 Software to create a best fit CAD profile designed for the concrete overlay on the highway and shoulders. The 3D project model was built by Applied Construction Technology, which was used with the Leica systems.” |

| Product History:
Evolution to Carlson Civil |
|
|
|
| |
|
Carlson Civil 2011 is the
newest product offering from Carlson Software addressing the site,
subdivision and road design needs of the civil engineer. Carlson Civil
2011 is the natural outgrowth of a well-established product line dating
back to 1983. It is the third “makeover” of core products from Carlson.
The first product that established the company was Surveyor 1, a
DOS-based survey solution that included plotting and digitizing, as
well as a full set of COGO functions. With the advent of AutoCAD 10 in
the early 1990s, Carlson Software ported all of its features to work in
Windows inside AutoCAD, and supplemented the survey routines with
contouring, volumes, subdivision design, sections, profiles and a
complete set of roading features. This second incarnation was known as
SurvCADD. SurvCADD became a favorite solution for surveying companies,
was utilized by many civil departments, and, with the addition of
mining features, came to dominate many sectors of the mine design and
planning industry (view timeline of
development highlights for Carlson Civil 2011).
With the continued
addition of civil engineering and construction-oriented features,
SurvCADD began to outlive both its name and its survey-based
structure. Since 2000, Carlson Software has emphasized development of a
new set of advanced civil engineering features for 3D road network
design, DTM-based sewer network design and site development. This
culminated in the May 26, 2006, release of Carlson Civil 2007, which is
now further enhanced with the October 2010 release of Carlson Civil 2011.
Carlson Civil 2011 is
designed to provide the Carlson traditional ease-of-use combined with
unsurpassed functionality, all based on 25+ years of experience in the
software industry serving this market. Listening to and incorporating
customer input into our software design over these years has made
Carlson Civil 2011 the most user-friendly and solution-oriented civil
engineering software in the marketplace today. We attribute this to our
comprehensive experience in the overlapping markets of survey,
construction and mining, and the Carlson dedication to providing
technologically superior software products. |
