I know I've been a bit of a blogging nomad for the past year, thanks for sticking with me! My new digs- an Offical Autodesk Blog- are finally ready, so I will be posting over there a minimum of 3X per week from this point forward. Civil 3D Rocks will stay here as a repository for the old reference m...

I get my training tomorrow on how to use the site, and soon I will be back to bothering you a minimum of 3X per week! I know you are excited. The timing is perfect- just in time for the coming re...

If you had a chance to see or watch the AEC Keynote Presentation at Autodesk University, you might have been excited to see some of the bridge modeling tools for Revit Structure. If you missed the presentation, it is available for viewing. Get the link to watch the AEC Keynote here. Scott Hammond...

Just a few quick things I wanted to share as we get rolling in this new year... Last year I made a few New Year's Resolutions. Here is a status update on how I did. I let my subscription to National Geographic lapse, so I no longer have this problem. CHECK! I kicked the cookie dough habit, ...

It's been busy around here- deadlines butting up against the Autodesk "Week of Rest", the post AU catch up frenzy, my design class coming to an end, oh yeah, and that whole Christmas thing. We'll get back into some hard core Civil 3D tech once I drink a few egg nogs next week. In the meantime,...

I don't think its too late. If had your badge scanned when you came into a class, you should have gotten an email about filling out class surveys. I cannot stress how important this feedback is. As a speaker, I know that I have taken the comments and ratings to heart and used them to help me impr...
