The firm says that the new version of RoadEng includes 3D functionality and handling of corridor surfaces that will help users to improve their workflows, without adding complexity. It has been developed with input from the firm’s customers.

The new RoadEng Civil Engineer package includes an array of improved features. The 3D interactivity and visualisation tools mean that users are now able to design and edit directly in the 3D window. Improvements also include the ability to work with 3D objects and facets, and to set 3D symbols. Users can work with multiple alignments and surfaces and can create individual surfaces from multiple alignments, or multiple layers within those corridors.
