What can I get from Dynamo in Civil 3D

Hello. I want to learn about Dynamo for Civil 3D, but I don’t get how it can help me. I am a project designer in highway engineering. I’m just part of the project, so I am not part of the construction.
Can someone help me?

Hi @rodrigo.carreras6AB7,

Can you identify some tasks that might be good candidates for automation? For example, time-consuming things that you do over and over again.

U can learn dynamo basic and revit & civil 3d also API concept…

Hi @rodrigo.carreras6AB7

In addition of what @Aravinth.Pichamani suggested, I can suggest you what did it i do and i reached high enough level to create graphs in the organization i am working.
Study the book Dynamo for Civil 3D (author @Anton_Huizinga ) and spend time to see how the available nodes are interacting each other.

Regards

I have a few examples of repetitive tasks that would take a long time to complete manually without Dynamo.

  1. In this scenario, the client asked me to display the surface elevation along the alignments every 20 m in the plan view.

  2. For the same project, they requested the slopes to be shown in the plan view along the centerline of the roads.

Imagine this in a big project, you could save lot of time.
