We’re excited to announce the release of Civil Tools available through the Autodesk Docs Viewer in Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC). With this launch, users can now perform infrastructure-specific design reviews directly within ACC. This new capability empowers stakeholders across the project lifecycle with tools to efficiently interrogate models, with an Autodesk Docs subscription.
This release is the first of many planned enhancements aimed at improving review workflows for civil designs.
Civil engineers often face time-consuming design reviews due to a variety of challenges. These include extended model load times caused by complex drawings with large amounts of data, delays in feedback loops, miscommunication, and fragmented workflows stemming from the lack of a centralized source of truth. Accessing and managing design files with the right context, and doing so more efficiently, has become increasingly critical—and more achievable than ever before.
With Civil Tools, engineers can streamline design reviews by enabling all stakeholders to perform detailed assessments anytime and anywhere with Autodesk Docs. This eliminates the need to revert to authoring applications, enhancing both collaboration and efficiency.
The Civil Tools feature set also enhances the QA/QC process by democratizing design reviews. It provides all project stakeholders with access to critical model information without requiring specialized software, including linear design details. For example, project managers and BIM managers can perform detailed reviews and simple measurements and cross-section reviews, while QA/QC teams can create and assign issues directly within ACC. This fosters faster issue resolution and improved collaboration during coordination meetings.
