product badgeAEC Collection / Infrastructure design

Deliver better infrastructure, together

Why civil engineers use the AEC Collection

  • Curved highway with light vehicle traffic surrounded by trees and rolling hills

    Make better design decisions

    Work with connected tools for concepting, design, analysis and optimisation to better meet design requirements and enhance client satisfaction.

  • A man and a woman in an office talk while viewing a model of a highway on laptop

    Streamline team co-ordination

    Improve project collaboration and performance with a cloud-based common data environment.

  • A half-built concrete arc supported by scaffolding with a crane in the background

    Keep constructability top of mind

    Co-ordinate effectively from design to construction to reduce risks, minimise RFIs and ensure constructability.

THOMAS & HUTTON

Sustainable site design

“Being able to quickly iterate and analyse multiple design scenarios, develop preliminary permitting documents and collaborate both internally and externally – the Autodesk applications brought all those things together.” — Charles D’Errico, IT Systems Analyst, Thomas & Hutton.
