INTELLICAD
CARLSON 2020-2025 WITH INTELLICAD 9.X, 10.X, 11.X OR 12.X
- Compatible with 64 bit Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 11 (Vista and 32 bit are not supported)
CARLSON 2016-2019 WITH INTELLICAD 8.X
- Compatible with 32 or 64 bit Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, and 10
HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
Intel® Pentium® 4 or comparable (minimum), Intel i7 or at least Intel i5 or comparable (recommended). Due to the variety of processors on the market, one can use cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php to do comparative analysis. While the overall processor score matters, the single thread performance is of the most interest.
- 32-bit Windows 7-8.1: 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM minimum, 4 GB recommended.
- 64-bit Windows 7-10: 2 GB of RAM minimum, 8+ GB recommended.
- Windows Vista: 1 GB of RAM minimum, 4 GB recommended.
- Windows XP: 512 megabytes (MB) of RAM minimum, 2 GB recommended.
Graphics card compatible with OpenGL Version 1.4 or higher:
- Recommended are desktop graphics level discrete (not integrated cards like Intel HD) graphics cards.
- Preferably Nvidia Geforce due to their more consistent driver support.
- Discrete ATI/AMD cards will be adequate, but ATI’s driver support has been spotty and user is frequently deferred to the computer manufacturer for support.
- Professional Nvidia Quadro cards are not currently recommended due to driver issues.
- Powerful gaming cards are not required and probably would not provide as much benefit as investment in more memory or better CPU

Description
Carlson Construction is an integrated cut/fill takeoff and 3D surface modeling software solution designed for site and road construction from CAD files. It offers powerful section and 3D viewing tools for elevating 2D designs to 3D model files.
Core 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
• As-Built Mapping
Carlson Construction’s Material Quantities Reports give estimators the volume, area, length and/or count for items such as asphalt, gravel, curb, or any “subgrade” or “select fill” that’s defined. For construction data prep, Carlson Construction creates surfaces from points and contours and can easily move lines from the “wrong” elevation and slope to the correct elevation and slope.
Be “project ready” and meet the demand for data prep/3D model building with Carlson Construction – the software solution that works with CAD or PDF files for:
• Construction staking
• Machine Control Data Prep
• Cut/Fill Volumes
• As-Built Mapping
Carlson Construction can do it
Need to import and/or upload data from a field survey?
Looking to create a surface from data within a CAD drawing?
Have to move «break-lines» or «grade-lines”?
Carlson Construction can create surfaces from points and contours and can easily move lines from the «wrong» elevation and slope to the correct elevation and slope. Also, take edge-of-pavements, contours and annotation from 2D to 3D, or to re-engineer projects when necessary.
