Design • Optimize • Deliver Constructible Land Development Grading Plans.

Stop Guessing Your Grading Decisions. Start Designing Like a Site Grading Professional.

Most engineers can model a surface in Civil 3D.
Very few can design grading that drains, balances earthworks, meets standards, and is constructable on site.

This program closes that gap.

Become a confident Site Grading Professional


THE HARD TRUTH (We’ll Say What Others Won’t)

You may already know Civil 3D.
You may even be able to produce a finished surface.

But deep down, you’ve felt it:

❌ “I’m not sure if this grading is actually correct.”

❌ “I don’t have a clear workflow — I’m just trying things.”

❌ “My grading works, but is it economical? Is it professional?”

❌ “I fear design reviews and senior engineer comments.”

❌ “I know the tools… but I don’t fully trust my judgment.”

This is not a software problem.

It’s a design confidence problem.


WHY MOST SITE GRADING FAILS

Because engineers are taught:

  • Commands instead of judgment

  • Tools instead of thinking

  • Surfaces instead of landform design

Site grading is not drafting.


It is engineering decision-making on terrain.

And that is exactly what this program teaches.


INTRODUCINGTHE SITE GRADING PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM

Using Autodesk Civil 3D

A structured, industry-driven program designed to transform you from a Civil 3D user into a confident site grading designer who can:

  • Read and interpret landforms

  • Design drainage-drive grading

  • Design constructible platforms

  • Optimize cut & fill

  • Deliver grading plans that meet professional standards


WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT

✔ Workflow-driven (not command-driven)


✔ Design judgment before software


✔ Optimization and cost awareness


✔ Real land development scenarios


✔ Professional-grade deliverables

This is how experienced engineers actually think.


WHAT THIS PROGRAM SOLVES (DIRECTLY)

1. No More Confusion — A Clear Grading Workflow

You will learn a step-by-step professional grading process, from:

  • Existing ground interpretation

  • To drainage logic

  • To parking lots
  • To platforms, circulation, and final earthworks

No more “where do I start?”


 2. From Guesswork to Engineering Judgment

You will understand:

  • Why slopes work

  • How levels relate (G : D: L)

  • What is acceptable, buildable, and professional

You will think before you model.


3. Real Optimization — Not Just Modeling

Learn how to:

  • Reduce unnecessary earthworks

  • Balance cut and fill

  • Control grading extents

  • Design with cost awareness

This is where real value is created on projects.


 4. Drainage-Driven Design Confidence

You will stop treating drainage as an afterthought.

Instead, you’ll design grading that:

  • Moves water intentionally

  • Protects buildings

  • Avoids ponding and site failures


5. Professional-Grade Deliverables

By the end of the program, you will confidently deliver:

  • Finished Ground surfaces

  • Grading plans

  • Spot levels & contours

  • Earthwork quantities

  • Defensible design decisions


WHO THIS PROGRAM IS NOT FOR

✖ Those looking for shortcut commands


✖ Those who only want software tips


✖ Those unwilling to think critically about design

This program is for engineers who want mastery, not tricks.


WHAT YOU WILL BECOME

By completing this program, you will become:

A capable site grading engineer who designs with precision, confidence, professional standards, and engineering judgment.

⚠️ Limited Enrollment

Site grading requires feedback, review, and a deep understanding.

To ensure personalized guidance, mentorship, and project critique, class size is strictly capped.

Once all seats are filled, registration closes automatically.

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect chance to become a Site Grading Professional—this is it.

Don’t miss out.
