Thank you!
These videos are gold buddy. I am fresh out of college (USF) starting at a firm this week specializing in land development in Hillsborough County ironically and I dont have much experience in the office side of how this all chronologically takes place. I already feel so ahead after watching some of your videos and dont feel like I'm blindly walking into this now. keep it up man!

@@griffinfurlong I feel like from what you’ve discussed in Ep 1 and 2 that you’ll be touching on exactly what I need with parcels and stuff in episode 3! So I’ve got my notifications on for once eagerly waiting for that👍 Other topics I struggle with: Feature lines for grading vs alignments and corridors. I’m familiar with the latter but don’t understand feature lines. Do you have any civil 3D learning resources you recommend outside of your channel? Something for people who know AutoCAD well but haven’t learned all the different features that civil 3D offer.

@@zeke012 check out some of the ones I’ve made on feature lines and if you need more, I highly suggest Jeff Bartels-guys is a mastermind
The geotech report can also contain recommended design parameters for retaining walls, bearing capacity value range and cut angle ranges the excavated land can tolerate. Just a few points from my experience.

Thanks for the video! I’m graduating in may and starting in land development so these videos are so helpful. Definitely want to learn more about grading in civil 3D and steps for drainage analysis

Thanks for watching, hope it helped. What’s funny is everyone wants to learn grading in civil 3D but no one wants to learn how to grade by hand. I think learning the basics is where to start! The next videos will be drainage analysis which I think you will find helpful
