Classes by Industry The Robots are Coming! Using BIM, CNC Tools, and Rapid Manufacturing Techniques in the AEC Industry AB314-4 04-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm Rapid Manufacturing, or CNC-driven production of parts, furniture, and elements is drastically changing our world, making the ideas of mass customization, direct fabrication, and personalization truly accessible to everyone. In this class, you’ll see real-world techniques and examples of using CNC automated tools along with Revit® and 3ds Max®. You’ll learn how to scale from simple 3D printing for in-house planning and client presentation to template production for construction aids for contractors, and even move on to fully automated part creation for direct involvement in the construction of the project. 90-Minute Class All Levels Delfino 4003 Jeffery McGrew, Owner | Because We Can AutoCAD® Architecture Secrets Exposed! AB110-7 02-Dec-08 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm This session offers you the opportunity to learn some of the lesser well-known commands and new features in the latest release of AutoCAD Architecture. Discover how you can take advantage of the new tools and eliminate the time-wasting habits of doing things the “old way”. We all have a tendency to embrace the familiar and resist the new; however, some of the best productivity tools have been introduced in recent versions. Attend this session to uncover the possibilities, and then go home and dazzle your co-workers. A surefire way to get a ticket to attend next year! 90-Minute Class All Levels Delfino 4105 Jeanne Aarhus, President | Aarhus Associates, LLC Custom Stairs and Railings in Revit® Architecture AB314-3 04-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm In this lab, students will learn how to create families for posts, balusters, panels, railings, and stair nosing. Focusing on design for high-end commercial and residential projects, this class will dive directly into the use of the Family Editor to physically build the components needed. Once the families are established, the class will move to Assembly in the project to expose the difficulties designers face. The commercial portion of the class will cover extruded steel with glass panels; the residential portion will cover custom handrails and raised panels. You’ll also learn how to design winding and spiral staircases, as well as how to create custom materials with wood hatching that you can apply to the stair components to give the stairs and railings your personal touch. 90-Minute Class All Levels Lando 4205 Eric Wing, Senior Application Engineer | IMAGINiT Technologies From the Existing to the Beyond with Revit® Design Options and Phases AB404-3 05-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am In the CAD world, you show your options and phases with a complex group of layers. This session will cover how you use the tools inside Revit to assist with projects with phases, how to show design options, and how to document revisions. Revit has unique tools to assist you in these areas, while allowing you to keep your project proceeding into future phases at the same time as design decisions are being contemplated. We’ll cover the techniques and best practices for this design alternative when applied to the drawing set—all views, tags and schedules are coordinated instantly. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Lando 4205 Michael Massey, Vice President, Architectural Design Solutions | ALACAD AutoCAD® Architecture: Advanced Modeling Techniques AB314-5 04-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm This session will focus on advanced modeling techniques in AutoCAD Architecture. Mass Elements and Groups, Curtain Walls, and Structural Members will be used to create the unordinary! 90-Minute Class Advanced Marcello 4406 Charles Busa, Technical Consultant | Autodesk BIM 3.0: Digital Craftsmanship with Revit® Architecture and Autodesk Inventor® AB318-4 04-Dec-08 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm BIM 1.0, the use of Revit for 2D documentation, is established. BIM 2.0, the extension of the computable data of a BIM for structural and environmental analysis, is a present reality. BIM 3.0, the use of the “I” in BIM for Digital Craftsmanship—rapid prototyping, pre-fabricated architectural components, supply chain integration—is the next wave and it’s here now. In this class, we’ll look at ways in which Inventor can be used in conjunction with Revit Architecture to extend your BIM even further downstream in the supply chain, potentially interfacing with suppliers, manufacturers, and fabricators. We’ll also take a closer look at ODBC capabilities in Revit Architecture as we look to move Revit beyond 2D documentation and into BIM 3.0. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Marcello 4503 Jason Dougherty, Director of BIM Implementation | Microsol Resources Corporation 21
