Classes by Industry Advanced Curtain Wall Design in AutoCAD® Architecture AB404-1 05-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am If you have explored the basics of curtain walls but are looking for the advanced design techniques to push them to the limits, this class is for you. This hands-on lab will take you step-bystep from a design sketch of a complicated curtain wall to a finished, flexible curtain wall model in AutoCAD Architecture. You will create louvers, custom profiles, stone piers, and nested styles, among other techniques. If time permits, the instructor will answer questions regarding attendee curtain wall designs. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Marcello 4401 James Upton, System Adminstrator | Grimm + Parker Architects Intro to Rendering In Revit® Architecture 2009 AB100-6 02-Dec-08 8:00 am - 9:30 am Creating your model and construction documents is only part of your design process. From the early conceptual stages to the final design, you can create realistic images in Revit Architecture by applying materials to the building components. You can also create realistic images of the interiors of a building model to show the images to a client as well as for advertising. In this course, you’ll learn about the new mental ray® shaders and settings, as well as what’s changed in lighting. 90-Minute Class Introductory Delfino 4003 Reid Addis, Application Specialist | Microsol Resources Corporation Top Secret: Using Classifications to your Advantage in AutoCAD® Architecture AB300-1 04-Dec-08 8:00 am - 9:30 am In this lesson, you will gain an understanding of classification techniques within AutoCAD Architecture, and then learn how to use them to leverage object and data manipulation for projects that may require New, Existing, and Demolition work phases. You will learn the steps needed to setup Classifications, Display Representations, MVIEW Blocks, Scheduling, and other AutoCAD Architectural Objects so that items interact properly. These techniques will help you to streamline the way renovation projects are approached and completed within your organization. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Marcello 4404 Jason Dodds, CAD Manager | OPX AutoCAD® Architecture 2009 Tips and Tricks AB100-5 02-Dec-08 8:00 am - 9:30 am “Something old”, “something new” and “something cool”— each release of AutoCAD Architecture improves on the already solid foundation of the software. However, with so much new functionality coming at us so quickly, we can often miss useful features from one release to the next. Presented in over a dozen cities on the 2009 Autodesk Experience Tour, this session gives you a collection of tips and tricks drawn from old and new releases alike. Learn how to get the most from your schedules, see what’s new in Project Navigator, and why the “rules” of wall cleanup are forever changed. To end the session, you’ll learn how to use AutoCAD Architecture objects in ways they were never intended. 90-Minute Class Introductory Marcello 4503 Paul Aubin, Author/Consultant | Paul F. Aubin Consulting Services Revit® Families: the Step-by-Step Intro AB500-1L 05-Dec-08 8:00 am - 11:30 am So maybe you know how powerful the Family Editor is, but until now you’ve avoided it or have been just plain intimidated by it. Wait no more! This lab will introduce you to the basics of the Revit Family Editor. Once you get past being intimidated (that’s it, breathe easy…that’s better…) you’ll find that the family editor is extremely powerful and can actually be great fun! Yes, fun! In this short introduction to the family editor, we’ll work hands-on through the creation of a Revit component family complete with constraints and parameters. Don’t worry if you don’t know what a constraint or parameter is; we’ll cover that too. So whether you’ve never worked in Revit Architecture before, or have used Revit for awhile but simply avoided the family editor, come to this session and learn the basics of the editor in the best way possible—handson! 3.5-Hour Lab Introductory Lando 4301 Paul Aubin, Author/Consultant | Paul F. Aubin Consulting Services An Introduction to AutoCAD® Architecture MultiView Blocks AB100-4 02-Dec-08 8:00 am - 9:30 am Take your AutoCAD blocks to the next level of usability with AutoCAD Architecture or MEP MvBlocks. MvBlocks are essential in getting the most out of AutoCAD Architecture, because they represent both 2D and 3D objects. This class will examine the usefulness of MvBlocks from soup to nuts. We will build new blocks, assign classifications, and create new property set definitions. Then we will bring it all together by creating tags and schedules. After building the blocks, we will discuss proper file management and determine where to share the information with your users—Tool Palettes vs. Design Center. 90-Minute Class Introductory Marcello 4404 Jason Dodds, CAD Manager | OPX 19
