Construction

Carlson Construction is an integrated cut/fill takeoff and 3D surface modeling software solution designed for site and road construction. It offers powerful inspection and 3D viewing tools for elevating 2D designs to 3D model files.  Carlson Construction includes powerful tools for designing and modeling different aspects of road design, from new construction to road widening and repaving.

Key Abilities:

  • Cut/Fill Estimating
  • Output 3D Machine Control Files (Carlson Grade, Trimble, CAT-Accugrade, Leica, and Topcon)
  • Output Construction Staking files for Site, Roadway, and Building Columns and Offsets

 

GeoTech

Carlson GeoTech provides the ability to import borehole data for analyzing subsurface conditions and materials.

“GeoTech will model all core samples and produce a detailed, easy-to-read report  for drill logs, cross sections, and plan view,” says Dave Carlson, V.P. of Development for Carlson Software.

In addition, this information is fully integrated with Carlson Civil, for determining site stability and suitability, and also Carlson Construction, for accurate strata takeoff estimation.

Carlson GeoTech supports AutoCAD® and comes with IntelliCAD® built-in. This is in addition to working on legacy AutoCAD versions.

Key Capabilities

– Input and edit drillhole log data with strata elevation, depth and attribute data
– Generate drillhole log reports
– Label drillholes
– Draw Geologic Columns
– Draw Fence Diagrams
– Draw Isopach Maps for strata thickness, elevation or attributes
– Draw Strata Surfaces
– Draw Strata Depth Contours and Cut Color Maps
– Model Strata Surfaces with linkage to Carlson Civil and Construction for strata quantities
– Annotate plan view drillhole location maps
