## Description

desertcart.com: AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012 Essentials: 9781118016787: Chappell, Eric: Books

Review: AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012, ESSENTIALS - It is an excellent book. Not only does it train you the Essentials of AutoCAD Civil 3D, it goes to the basic principles of Civil Engineering and teaches you Land Development Design in particular. At the beginning of every chapter, it introduces the subject matter using simple day-to-day related analogies to teach the reader the basics and then builds on that. Accompanying the book are very well prepared drawings covering/illustrating every section in every chapter which the reader can freely download. Hands on tutorials have been provided at the end of every section where the reader can actually exercise using Civil 3D and recap what has been learnt in that particular section. The hands on exercises are so rigorous that they guide the reader through every step and every click in order to complete the task using AutoCAD Civil 3D. Furthermore, side notes have been provided to explain to the reader some important notations and to keep the reader well aware of how things should be done. Additional exercises have been provided at the end of every chapter in order to recap what has been learnt in the chapter. Moreover the reader can approach Eric who is readily available to provide his prompt help as required. Overall it is a very useful and handy reference for AutoCAD Civil 3D. I strongly recommend the book to anyone who wants to learn Civil 3D.
Review: AutoCAD Civil 3D 2012 Essentials (Autodesk Official Training Guide: Essential) - The book do not have the issue of superelevation, by sure, if in the next edition is include, it will improve the quality of the product

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ met the author
*by K***E on December 27, 2012*

The book is a great start to help you get through a lot of the beginner's problems when it comes to using Civil 3D. After using Civil 3D for 4 years, I finally passed the Autodesk Civil 3D certification. This book is really "essential" when it comes to understanding deeper than the Richard Graham's "Mastering AutoCAD Civil 3D" books. But this book again is "essential" but not to the point of becoming "innovative" as this book as a very VERY small and limited discussion or how-to on using parts builder. I met Eric at the Autodesk University conferences in the past and I'm glad to hear that he still practices and uses the software daily and his books reflect it. But nothing is better than meeting him in person to get some real inspirational ideas of how to use the software to a different level (or even understanding and using the parts builder).
