When you say "plot" do you really mean "draw" as in: How do I draw a topographic map in Civil 3D 2009?

Assuming you are to locate survey points knowing the angle from North to the point through the instrument (Azimuth)...

Points > Create Points - Miscellaneous > Azimuth

You may want to consider trying Help > Tutorials > Autocad Civil 3D Tutorials > Surfaces Tutorials.

Also... if you search Youtube for Civil 3D, there are a number of video tutorials.
