Devotech Professional Extension for Town Planning, Roads, Water, Storm water and Sewer Design

DPX

Version 4.2 is available!

This is our biggest release to date and we are very proud of the functionality we are providing in this release.This release has been developed on the wishes of our users, and we believe that you will benefit greatly from the new functionality.

We would like to thank all our users for all their positive input and participation. Your contribution to the Devotech Professional Extension made AutoCAD Civil 3D a localised solution that provides unmatched productivity to the South African Engineering Industry.

 Devotech Bridge Module

Devotech Africa has developed a solution for modelling these unique concrete structures, to ensure a simplistic approach, minimising modelling time, while ensuring increased accuracy of designs. Devotech Africa uses a combination of AutoCAD Civil 3D, and Autodesk Revit structures to deliver this solution.

Devotech Africa’s Bridge Modelling solution uses a single model to derive all views, sections and elevations dynamically from the model. This means that any change to the model, will update all relevant sections, elevations and construction documentation dynamically. Levels on the abutments, piers, decks, or any other component are automatically calculated from the bridge model, since the model is geo-referenced and modelled from the survey data available. Bridge clearances can also be evaluated with ease. Normally, this process would take an advanced user between two and three weeks, but with Devotech’s Bridge Modelling, this task can be completed in two to four days.

 Ferrovia - Software for Railway Design and Maintenance

Ferrovia Cross Section

Ferrovia offers a large set of commands from basic to detailed level from survey data input to plotting or 3D model creation. Ferrovia enables engineers to prepare professional drawings and technical documentation with volume calculations and other data analysis including rail track geometry calculation and data export to specialized rail track machinery. AutoCAD Civil 3D is the primery software platform for Ferrovia.

Ferrovia can be used for:

  • Convensional rail track design
  • Platform design with junctions and switches
  • Rail track geometry calculations and direct data export to tamping machinery
  • Rail track envelope clearance analysis in layout and cross sections
  • Industrial rail trach design and underground rail track design
  • Light rail design in urban areas

 Autopath vehicle swept path analysis 

Autopath

Extension for swept path analysis and driving simulation. It can be used to analyse intersections, roundabouts, narrow streets, garage entrances, etc. or to check maneuverability and clearance.

Some feaures:

  • Automatic driving simulation along the selected Civil 3D alignment or polyline with the front or rear vehicle axis;
  • Intuitive manual driving simulation controlled by the mouse;
  • Graphical representation of the analysis results with tyre paths, outer edge, coloured area and many more.

Autopath continues...

Ease of use
Autopath is so easy to use that no training should be required. User are up and running in a matter of minutes.

Custom Vehicle Library

Create custom vehicles with an easy to use interface. Included in the product are vehicle libraries such as AASHTO and others that consist of airplanes, trucks, trailers, cars. There is no extra cost for additional vehicles.

Easy Drive
an interactive method of defining the vehicle path. Besides an easy input this method includes realistic simulation because it considers parameters such as vehicle speed, wheel turning speed and the superelevation of the road.

Vertical Clearances
is used to check a vehicles clearance for things such as parking garages, bridges and more.

Affordable
Autopath is a fraction of the cost of similar software on the market. It was developed to offer users a low cost solution with all the high end features.

 Plateia

Plateia - traffic module is dedicated to designing traffic signalisation, intersection geometry and swept path analysis:

  • - Contains complete swept path analysis - Autopath
  • - Draw, edit and report traffic signs
  • - design of pavement markings (zebras, longitudinal markings, ghost islands)
  • - design of splitter islands (teardrop, triangular)
  • - complete dynamic roundabout design - design and edit roundabout geometry, road markings and traffic signs
  • - curb return fillets
  • - bus bays

 

Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite 

Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite offers a comprehensive solution for planning, designing, building, and managing infrastructure projects at an exceptional value.

AutoCAD® software provides powerful design and documentation tools, extensive customization options, and native DWG™ support to take infrastructure projects further.

AutoCAD® Map 3D software is a model-based infrastructure planning and management application that provides broad access to CAD and GIS data, helping geospatial and planning professionals make more informed design and management decisions.

AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software brings the power of BIM to infrastructure projects to help civil engineering professionals stay coordinated, more easily and efficiently explore design options, analyze project performance, and deliver consistent, higher-quality documentation.

Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design software helps you create near photorealistic renderings and animations to tell the story behind designs. Dynamically link to civil data, validate designs, and better communicate project intent.

Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate software provides advanced tools for review and coordination of project information. Comprehensive 4D simulation and animation capabilities enable better design insight and predictability. Real-time navigation combined with review toolsets supports collaboration among the project team.

Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage software** is a comprehensive review solution for analysis, simulation, and coordination of project information. Multidisciplinary design data can be combined into a single integrated project model for interference management and clash detection. Navisworks Manage helps design and construction professionals anticipate and avoid potential problems before construction.

Autodesk® Storm and Sanitary Analysis software* is a comprehensive hydrology and hydraulic analysis application for planning and designing urban drainage systems, highway drainage systems, storm sewers, and sanitary sewers.

*Autodesk Storm and Sanitary Analysis is included with AutoCAD Map 3D 2012 and AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012.

**All of the capabilities of Autodesk Navisworks Simulate are included in Autodesk Navisworks Manage.

Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite helps you:

• Bring multiple types of data together into a single view to better understand project impact and help inform design and management decisions.

• Gain greater insight into planning, design, and construction with integrated analysis capabilities to better predict project outcomes.

• More easily accommodate design changes with synchronous design and drafting.

• Create compelling renderings to help communicate design intent and better understand projects in real-world surroundings.

• Help increase visibility into constructability, cost, and schedules.

• Manage your infrastructure information more dependably with intelligent industry models that help you maintain data quality standards.
