Just recently, selected Modelers and Architects undergo a SPOT (Self-Paced Online Training) in 12D Model.


Forsspac aims to enhance the knowledge and capabilities of its modeler by learning 12D Model.


It will equip the users with the skills and knowledge needed to efficiently use the software for surveying, civil engineering, and infrastructure design.


The training ensures that professionals can effectively create, edit, and manage 3D models, terrain data, and design elements to improve project accuracy and efficiency.

What is 12D Model?

12D Model is a powerful civil engineering software used for surveying, civil design, and construction projects. It provides an efficient platform for 3D modeling, terrain modeling, road design, drainage analysis, and land development.


Widely used in industries such as transportation, water, and infrastructure, 12D Model enables engineers and surveyors to design, visualize, and analyze projects with high precision.


Developed by 12D Solutions, the software integrates various engineering disciplines and allows for smooth data exchange with CAD and GIS platforms. It supports BIM (Building Information Modeling) workflows, making it a valuable tool for modern infrastructure projects.


Key Features of 12D Model

3D Terrain & Surface Modeling

Handles complex terrain data for accurate landform analysis.


Road & Highway Design

Facilitates alignment design, cross-section generation, and volume calculations.


Drainage & Stormwater Analysis

Includes hydrology and hydraulic modeling for efficient water management.


Surveying & Geospatial Analysis

Supports field data processing, LiDAR, and GIS integration.


BIM & Data Interoperability

Works with multiple file formats, ensuring smooth collaboration.


Why Use 12D Model?

  • Increases efficiency in civil design workflows.

  • Reduces errors by providing an accurate 3D visualization.

  • Enhances collaboration with seamless data integration.

  • Supports automated design tools, reducing manual work.

 

What is SPOT (Self-Paced Online Training)?

It’s a way to learn and practice using 12D model at your own pace through online courses, including video lessons, quizzes, and access to the software itself, provided by the Civil and Surveying Institute.


Forsspac create a customized 12D Training Plan – Course Syllabus that is aimed to complete within 3-weeks’ time.

  • SPOT – 12D Model Fundamentals V15

  • SPOT – Getting Started for Design V15

  • SPOT – Getting Started for 12D Field V15

  • SPOT – Getting Started for Utility Modelling V15


Opportunities of Learning 12D Model

Mastering 12D Model opens up a range of business opportunities in civil engineering, surveying, and infrastructure development.


As the demand for 3D modeling, digital terrain analysis, and BIM integration grows, professionals with 12D Model expertise are highly sought after.
