Exploring AutoCAD Civil 3D 2019 textbook introduces the users to the powerful Building Information Modeling (BIM) solution, AutoCAD Civil 3D. The BIM solution in AutoCAD Civil 3D helps create and visualize a coordinated data model. This data model can then be used to design and analyze a civil engineering project for its optimum and cost-effective performance.

Each tutorial set contains exercises that are designed to explore the various features of AutoCAD Civil 3D.
The tutorial exercises are organized in a logical sequence, based on how you typically work with the different types of features. However, you may complete the exercises in any order you choose. After you begin an exercise, you should complete the steps in the order presented. The first steps provide you with the information you need for the later steps in that exercise.
Note: All drawings used in these tutorials are available in the tutorials drawings folder and all source data files are available in the tutorial folder. If you want to save your changes to the tutorial drawings as you work, save them to the My Tutorial Data folder so that you do not overwrite the original tutorial drawings.
Topics in this section- Getting More Information
The step-by-step procedures in these tutorials provide instructions for using AutoCAD Civil 3D to complete tasks using the drawings provided. - Setting Up the Workspace
Before you start the tutorials, you must set the appropriate workspace. - Saving Your Tutorial Drawings
If you want to save your changes to the tutorial drawings as you work, you must create a folder in which to save drawing and data files before beginning the tutorial exercises.
A map book divides your map into multiple “tiles” and displays each tile on a separate page. Picture a grid overlaying your map. Each section of the grid represents a tile. Once you create a map book, you can publish the entire map or selected tiles to a plotter or to DWF.
Each map book is associated with an AutoCAD sheet set.

Note:If a map book becomes dissociated from its sheet set (for example, if you rename the map file after creating a map book), you will be prompted to regenerate the sheet set when you select an existing map book or create a new map book. You can choose the sheet set from the older version of the map file, or you can create a new one. To regenerate the sheet set at any other time, right-click the map book (on the Map Book tab of the Task Pane) and choose Rebuild Sheet Set. When you package and send your map files to a recipient using eTransmit, the sheet set is packaged with the map file and your recipient does not have to regenerate it.
To create a map book, you must first set up a map book template. You can start with a sample template and adapt it to your needs. When the template is complete, you generate the map book. You can update the original map at any time and regenerate the map book without changing the template, or you can change the template and regenerate the map book. The new map book will reflect your changes.
The map book divides your map into tiles and displays them using a template.
