Classes by Industry Real World Problems – Real World Revit® Solutions: Model Management AB214-3 03-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm Using real-world solutions as examples from real-world Revit problems, this seminar will introduce some core concepts for successful Revit model management. You’ll see why the proper setup and use of the correct template is a critical first step to a successful Revit project. You’ll learn how to intelligently manage data between several disciplines and still maintain modeling accuracy. We’ll explore the principles of file linking, exchanging data between linked files, and coordinating building locations. We’ll also learn how to avoid and resolve conflicts between building systems and design teams by strategizing work division between Revit models (or within a single model). See why your production quality is only as good as your IT strategic goals, and how your PC specifications may affect the bottom line on a project. 90-Minute Panel Intermediate Lando 4205 Jeff Gravatte, CEO | CADD Microsystems, Inc. Inside the AutoCAD® Architecture Tool System AB304-2 04-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am The AutoCAD Architecture Tool System provides a great way to fully use the power of ACA. But how does it really work? Most people quickly learn how to use Tools and access Catalogs, but this understanding only scratches the surface. Many quickly find that the Tool System is a complex beast whose inner workings are difficult to fully comprehend. This class is not a simple “how to” session on using the ACA tool system—you already know the basics. Instead, we will go deep inside the Tool System structure, right into the various XML files that make up the complete Tool System to see how everything works under the hood. By understanding the entire Tool System, you will learn how to incorporate your own company-wide tools, palettes and catalogs, be able to easily maintain your systems, and analyze and solve problems. 90-Minute Class Power User Marcello 4402 Matthew Stachoni, CAD Manager | Bernardon Haber Holloway Architects PC Sections and Elevations in AutoCAD® Architecture: Manual Drafters Need Not Apply AB304-4 04-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am Learn how to customize Section and Elevation styles to conform to your office standards. We will provide in-depth, step-by-step instructions to create the styles to your standards. You’ll learn to improve your overall accuracy while streamlining production and coordination time. You’ll also learn how to prepare your construction documents more uniformly. This class will benefit CAD managers and end-users alike. Attendees should have a basic understanding of the Style Manager and AEC objects. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Marcello 4404 Thomas Morales, Instructor | Cerritos College A Better Understanding Of Revit® Architecture Families for Advanced Users AB304-1 04-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am Confidently creating Revit families is an empowering and essential skill for any Revit user. This lab will quickly cover the basic concepts, and then move into exercises demonstrating and proving a better understanding of some more advanced procedures including: making a titleblock, making tags, nesting a component, creating arrays, using formulas, making detail components, making and using solids and voids, making a type catalog, and shared families. 90-Minute Class Advanced Lando 4205 Bruce Gow, Application Specialist | KarelCAD Materalize in AutoCAD Architecture 2009 ® Practical Sustainable Design Workflows with Ecotect® and Revit® AB300-4 04-Dec-08 8:00 am - 9:30 am This session looks in detail at the day-to-day practicalities of designing high performance and sustainable buildings. While there are tools to calculate whole building energy use, the actual design techniques for achieving substantive reductions are often ignored. Using Revit modelling with Ecotect analysis and visualization techniques, participants will be guided through the processes of site solar access assessment, mapping incident solar radiation on building facades, designing highly optimized shading systems, calculating daylight levels in any room, and selecting the most appropriate building materials based on real hourly thermal analysis. Also covered are the workflows required to calculate and document LEED™ requirements associated with these design tasks. 90-Minute Class All Levels Lando 4205 Andrew Marsh, | Autodesk AB114-1L 02-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm This lab will go over how to maximize the use of material definitions inside AutoCAD Architecture 2009. You will learn how to implement material definitions throughout the Display System to help automate various project drawings. 90-Minute Lab Intermediate Lando 4201 Philip Russo, Director / Primary Author | CADLibOnline 16
