The cof file extension is used by Autodesk AutoCAD-family products for data used in civil engineering calculations. The file is typically stored as readable ASCII text rather than as a binary database.
A cof file can contain one or more sets of engineering data, including TT channel Manning's n values, channel or culvert calculator Manning's n values, runoff curve numbers, Darcy-Weisbach friction factors, culvert diameters, Manning's coefficients, TC sheet-flow Manning's n values, and Hazen-Williams coefficients.
These files are associated with AutoCAD for Microsoft Windows, Autodesk Civil 3D, and AutoCAD for Mac. They support calculation features in the relevant Autodesk software.
Open a cof file with the Autodesk product that created or uses it, such as AutoCAD or Autodesk Civil 3D. AutoCAD for Mac is also associated with this file type.
Because the file is usually ASCII text, a text editor can display its contents, but editing the values outside the Autodesk application may make the file unusable or change calculation results.
There is no general-purpose conversion that turns a cof file into a standard document or drawing format. The file contains calculation data rather than a standalone drawing.
When supported by the relevant Autodesk workflow, use AutoCAD or Autodesk Civil 3D to export or recreate the associated data in another supported format. Otherwise, retain the file as ASCII text and transfer its values through the application's calculation tools.
