Product Description
A real life civil design project for site development is recreated through each chapter in this book to prepare readers for what to expect when working in the field. Coverage begins by introducing the basic setups and standards that anyone beginning a civil design CAD project should know, then moves on to the fundamental concepts common to most civil engineering projects such as grading, contours, and surveying. Readers will then explore the process of creating different types of drawings typically necessary for civil design and see how changing parts of a design can affect the entire project process. The book concludes with methods for estimating quantities for the different types of materials and work that will likely be encountered in an actual drafting assignment.

Cliff Notes version of book I was expecting..., 2007-08-13
This book is such a basic and broad introduction to civil drafting that I double-checked that it was the one I had ordered. Unless you know NOTHING about civil engineering or AutoCAD, I suggest you skip this book and order something with a little more information. This book is so content-less that I'm shocked the publishers thought that they could get $45 for a $10 book.
