Isn't there a button in the lower left hand corner of your screen for both 2D and 3D views?

I don't think AUD had 3D blocks, it didn't a few versions ago.

AUD 2014 apparently does.

Try this page http://www.autodesk.com/products/autocad-utility-design/overview

 

Also do you have a 3d surface in the project yet?

[kulfi]

i do not have any surface in the project what you mean?

[ReMark]

The surface would define the lay of the land so to speak.

[kulfi]

So, you means if i lay the surface than all my objects will be elevated?

[ReMark]

Do you have a flat site or are there changes in elevation?

 

It sounds to me as though you are new to this. Have you taken the opportunity to view the Trial Experience Tutorials posted at the AutoDesk website?

 

Which version of the product are you using?

[kulfi]

I am using AUD 2013 version.

thanks

[kulfi]

Yes i have seen all the Videos on the Autodesk Site.

thanks

Have you had any formal training?

[kulfi]

Not Yet Can you provide me the training or assistance.

thanks

[ReMark]

Unfortunately I cannot. I would suggest that you or your employer contact your local authorized AutoDesk reseller and inquire or go online at the AutoDesk website and do a search on training facilities where you are located. It would be a worthwhile investment.

[kulfi]

Thanks we have contacted the authorized Autodesk dealer and Europe and in USA i do not why they are not ready to deliver BIM trainings.

Where specifically are you located?

It will "drap" the objects over the surface when you click the 3D view button on the status line, it does not change the elevation property (z) of the objects.
