What is the new Geotechnical extension?
Imports and connects geotechnical data
Hole locations and geological strata data
Draws borehole strips (logs)
Creates sub-strata surfaces
Creates dynamic geotechnical profiles
© 2012 Autodesk
What doesn’t the extension do?
Create perfect geology models
Interpret geotechnical data
Analyse and predict soils strengths

Geotechnical Extension – Borehole Manager
Controls the display of boreholes Location Model Strip
Uses Borehole Styles Sort by Zoom to Borehole Exclude Hole
© 2012 Autodesk
Geotechnical Extension – Strata Manager
Controls the display of strata surface Creates standard Civil 3D surfaces Uses standard surface styles
Can ‘Band by’ different data Can select the hole data to use or
exclude Surfaces are maintained

Geotechnical Extension – Geotechnical Profiles
Based on standard profiles Project selected borehole strips on
to profile Select by buffer Select manual
Hatch strata bands Uses Geotechnical hatches
