Classes by Industry Advanced Survey CV318-2L 04-Dec-08 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm The unique database-driven paradigm for consuming, creating, and delivering survey and geospatial data in Civil 3D enables powerful functionality that few other software applications can match. In this class, we will cover three advanced survey workflows that exemplify such power: ground coordinate to grid coordinate conversions; using custom projections to transform and localize assumed data; adjusting and balancing open and closed loop networks. 90-Minute Lab Advanced Lando 4301 Lucy Kuhns, Technical Specialist | Autodesk and blocks that will make the drawings look like they have studied art for years. 90-Minute Class Introductory Delfino 4102 Michelle Rasmussen, Application Engineer | IMAGINiT Technologies No Building Pads Allowed: Real World Grading in AutoCAD® Civil 3D® CV310-6 04-Dec-08 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm Tired of seeing grading demonstrated with flat rectangular building pads? Would you like to learn how to build real site components, like the ones in your projects? This advanced class takes you through the top 10 most common site design elements that can be built with Civil 3D grading components, such as surfaces, feature lines, and grading objects. Learn how to build ponds, endwalls, channels, ramps, berms, and many other real-world features. A must see for anyone serious about grading. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Lando 4205 Eric Chappell, Consultant | Engineered Efficiency Preparing to Make the Leap to AutoCAD® Civil 3D® CV204-3 03-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am This session will help you understand what needs to be done when making the switch from your current engineering design software to AutoCAD Civil 3D. Learn how to tackle the key components to a successful deployment including styles and standards development, data management, process development and optimization and company-wide rollout techniques. This groundwork is vital for your company to successfully migrate from legacy 2D/3D engineering drafting software to the powerful, 3D model-centric approach used in Civil 3D. This presentation focuses on the best practices that organizations of all sizes can follow to get AutoCAD Civil 3D successfully implemented. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Delfino 4102 Brad Heil, Engineering Director | Eagle Point Software Styles the Musical CV310-1P 04-Dec-08 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm In this class, you’ll see how styles can sing and dance to produce drawings that will win rave reviews from the critics. You see a medley of hits from “The Style and I”, “South Pacific Styles”, “West Style Story” and more! We’ll dance down the yellow brick road from points to surfaces to alignments and profiles, and then break into song about label and table styles. As a bonus, we’ll be taking special requests for your favorite number (via the newsgroup) that will be shown in the class and available for download. You’ll leave the class humming the catchy tunes all the way back to your office. 90-Minute Class All Levels Palazzo O-P Peter Funk, Senior Product Manager | Autodesk Get Your Head Out of the Point Cloud: Using AutoCAD® Civil 3D® for Large Surface Data Sets CV304-2L 04-Dec-08 10:00 am - 11:30 am These days, we are buried in data. How much data is too much? It is often difficult to open our data files, let alone build a meaningful TIN surface from them. We are under a lot of pressure to use high tech field collection information such as LIDAR, Aerial Topography, and GPS points, so let’s figure out a way to use it with the software and computer systems we currently have in our office. 90-Minute Lab Intermediate Lando 4301 Dana Probert, Civil Software Consultant | Autodesk Show me the Money! Civil BIM and Sustainable Design CV310-5 04-Dec-08 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm Points for most projects are the cornerstone for your base plan. They are the basis for your ground surface as well as symbology for surface features. Many techniques are used in point creation, display, design, and export. This class will educate you and provide you with tips on squeezing the most out of your points. 90-Minute Class All Levels Marcello 4405 Daniel Philbrick, Application Engineer | Global CADD Systems Make a Civil Impression: How Non-Artistic Professionals Can Create Presentation Drawings with Autodesk® Impression CV214-4 03-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm Autodesk Impression a relatively new program included with AutoCAD® 2009 products. We will discuss how professionals, who do not have a background in the arts, can create attractive presentation drawings for their clients. Our focus will be on drawings for the Civil Engineering community. The attendees will be introduced to the Autodesk Impression interface. They will learn how to prepare their drawings for import into Autodesk Impression. They will learn how to create styles and blocks and how those styles are used. We will also look at possible sources for ideas about creating styles 32
