Civil 3d Export Settings
I contract for a civil engineering firm which deals mostly in land development. One of my major responsibilities is is drafting.
The firm uses Civil 3d and I use Carlson. So when I draft on a subdivision for instance I will get an exported Civil 3d drawing so that all of the entities look correct. I will sometimes then xref the exported civil design drawings (street, etc) into my subdivision plat. Whenever I do this the Civil 3d drawings seem to come in architectural. On the xref settings I have to scale x & y by .08333333333 and then it snaps right into place. If I don’t it obviously comes large and in a different spot.
I spoke with one of the engineers about this and he said they run into this all the time when they CAD drawings with other people. They have to walk them through the scaling process to get things to come in correctly.
My questions is, is there some export setting in Civil 3d that needs to be changed?
