Autodesk CAICE VISUAL ROADS 10 Brochure
Powerful Transportation Design
CAiCE™Visual Roads® 10 software helps you create design models for all
types of transportation projects,including simple roads,complex highways
and interchanges,airport runways,canals, and dikes.User-defined
restraints for roadway design make CAiCE Visual Roads software completely
customizable to any level of detail.Used by government agencies and civil
engineering companies across North America,CAiCE Visual Roads software
provides robust engineering capabilities that support every phase of the
transportation design process.
Adaptable
You can completely customize CAiCE Visual Roads
to support your local design standards.Userdefined restraints lend flexibility to both simple
and complex road designs,so you can modify
alignment design constraints,superelevation
specifications,profile constraints,and cross section
details more efficiently.You can even plug in
CAiCE fragments,which are ready-made components such as raised or depressed medians,travel
lanes,and catch slopes.Plus you can develop or
change alignments and profiles quickly,so it’s easy
to try out alternative designs.
Interactive
Creating alignments,profiles,superelevation specifications,and design models is a completely interactive process.The design utilities provided by
CAiCE Visual Roads include built-in,user-definable
design tools that automate the process of meeting
design requirements,such as minimum radius and
spiral length,superelevation application, and sight
distance on vertical curves.
Intelligent
Robust and easy-to-use earthwork computation
capabilities help you classify and compute volumes for different material types. You can use the
Horizontal Alignment Editor to create or modify
alignments using any combination of numerical
input and onscreen graphical digitizing. You can
access user-definable tables that define minimum
curve radii,spirals, and vertical curve lengths
based on the design speed. The features combined in CAiCE Visual Roads help you meet all the
challenges of roadway design.
