The following enhancements have been made in Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016
Service Pack 1:
- A .NET API is now available for feature lines.
- DGN 3D Polyline linetype are now supported.
- Hydraflow Storm Sewers now exposes K inflow coefficient values in calculation results.
- Hydraflow Storm Sewers now supports the Composite Energy Loss Method (FHWA HEC-22 2001), which requires both critical depth as a minimum depth and that the inlet control checks be selected. This supplements the Automatic condition which used only the geometry of the network to determine the energy losses at junctions.
The following issues have been resolved in Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D 2016
Service Pack 1:

- An issue has been resolved where while opening an InfraWorks 360 sqlite model that contained an intersection, the numbers were inconsistent in the import progress bar.
- An issue has been resolved where opening an InfraWorks 360 model with a design road that had a non-zero start station would result in an existing ground profile in AutoCAD Civil 3D that started with a station of zero.
