Civil engineering
What is civil engineering design software?
Civil engineering design software helps teams turn survey and field data into accurate drawings and models for land development, site design and infrastructure. It spans disciplines such as land surveying, grading and earthworks, site plans and terrain modelling.
The Octave BricsCAD Civil & Survey toolset brings these workflows into a native DWG environment, so teams produce deliverables faster.

Civil & survey workflows
Octave BricsCAD for civil engineering

For civil and survey teams, Octave BricsCAD combines survey drafting, modelling and terrain analysis in a familiar DWG environment.
Automate common survey tasks such as point labelling, profiles and cross-sections; import point clouds and build TIN surfaces to calculate earthwork volumes; and work directly with external survey data sources, so your field data becomes a finished deliverable faster.
