This paper is a study on the earth volume calculation using CAD and LISP(LIST Processing) in the route alignment. The utility enlargement in the industry field and the considerable progress of computer make the automatic design and manufacture for the development of CAD/CAM/CAE technique possible, and the automatic design of civil engineering works is continuously progressive. In this study we are intend to improve an effect of civil engineering work by the automatic earth volume calculation in route alignment. This paper aims to construct the automatic design system of civil engineering work and the procedures; (1) The programming of the self-scanning program of the land information introducing Digital Terrain Model concept in the map (2) Systematic algorithm construction using LISP and grafting CAD system (3) Automatic design and calculation of the mass curve and earth volume.
