Carlson Construction can be purchased as a standalone module or as part of the Takeoff Suite which also includes CADNet, GeoTech and Trench.
This purchase includes a perpetual license of Carlson Construction and a perpetual license of IntelliCAD. A perpetual license, essentially, means that you are purchasing the software instead of renting it for a period of time.
Description
Carlson’s desktop software must be installed with a CAD platform such as IntelliCAD, AutoCAD or embedded AutoCAD (OEM). Carlson Software includes a perpetual license of IntelliCAD with their “For CAD” modules but also allows users to install the program on top of your own separately purchased license of a full AutoCAD-based program such as AutoCAD, Map or Civil 3D.
Carlson Survey and Carlson Takeoff are the only 2 programs that can be purchased with an embedded AutoCAD (OEM) license.
ALL Carlson desktop products work natively in the latest DWG format. This means that you create DWG files, you open DWG files and you save DWG files – there is no need to import, export or convert to others using a different CAD-based program.
Your purchase of Carlson includes a perpetual license of the Carlson program and either IntelliCAD or embedded AutoCAD (OEM).
Carlson Software can be purchased as individual modules or by bundling 2 or more products at a discounted price so you only pay for what you need!
Carlson Civil Suite includes the Survey, Civil, Hydrology and GIS modules and compares to Autodesk Civil 3D.
Carlson CADnet is a single module that’s functionality is comparable to Autodesk Raster Design.
You can also use a Select Suite to build your own bundle of a Pick 2, Pick 3, Pick 4, Pick 5 or Pick 6 choosing from Survey, Civil, Hydrology, GIS, CADnet and Point Cloud Basic.
Carlson Takeoff Suite and Takeoff with embedded AutoCAD (OEM) is comparable to Paydirt (retired), Quest Construction and Agtek software programs.

For Carlson products that run with IntellliCAD and/or your separately purchased license of AutoCAD, Carlson offers users an Annual Maintenance program that keeps the software up to date.

Although users may find it difficult to install older Carlson desktop software on newer machines due to limitations of newer Windows operating systems, Carlson continues offering support for those versions.
Within Carlson Construction, users can effortlessly generate and tailor comprehensive volume reports, encompassing cut/fill volumes, subgrade volumes, strata volumes, topsoil removal/replacement, and over-excavate volumes. Employing 3D triangulation models ensures the utmost accuracy in volume calculations, whether for the entire site or specific “Areas of Interest.”
The software offers a variety of visualization tools to verify quantities and convey findings effectively, including 3D Drive Simulation, 3D Drawing Viewer, 3D Surface Viewer, Quick Profile, Cut/Fill Color Map, and Cut/Fill Contours with daylight lines. Moreover, it supports shrink/swell factors and facilitates seamless export to PDF or Excel.
Subgrades are seamlessly defined through layers and linework in the drawing, with detailed material volume, area, length, and count reporting options available in standard reports, PDFs, or Excel sheets.
Vertical adjustments to the design surface are effortlessly managed through subgrade depths. The software automatically navigates complex subgrade areas and offers hatching functionalities for swift quality control checks.
From cross-sections for volumes to crafting machine control models with super elevations, Carlson Construction excels in road-related tasks. It encompasses features like Import/Create/Draw Centerlines, vertical profiles, design templates, and cross-sections to streamline road construction processes.
With the robust RoadNET command, users can dynamically construct roads and model intersections, while tools for calculating end areas volumes and conducting mass haul analysis further enhance project preparation capabilities.
For seamless transition to fieldwork, the software offers commands like Draw-Locate Points, Create Points from Entities, Divide Along Entity, Triangulation File Utilities, alongside support for Topcon, Trimble, and Leica Machine Control Surface Export, ensuring accurate stakeout or machine control implementation.
