About

Master the complete road design workflow using Autodesk Civil 3D in this intensive 8-week live online course designed specifically for engineers working on highway and road projects in Ghana and across Africa.

Through hands-on live sessions every Saturday morning, you’ll learn how to efficiently create highway alignments, design vertical profiles, build dynamic corridor models, and produce complete construction document sets that comply with Ghana Highway Authority standards.

Each 2-hour live session includes real-world project examples based on actual highway projects in Ghana, live demonstrations, Q&A time, and practical exercises. All sessions are recorded so you can review them anytime.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to confidently handle complete road design projects from survey data to final construction drawings, significantly improving your efficiency and the quality of your deliverables.

What You'll Learn

  • +Design complete highway alignments from survey data to final construction plans
  • +Build dynamic corridor models with multiple lane configurations
  • +Master superelevation and complex intersection design techniques
  • +Create and manage surfaces for existing and proposed road designs
  • +Generate professional construction drawings and earthwork quantities
  • +Apply Ghana Highway Authority standards and best practices
