Classes by Industry Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Points, But Were Afraid to Ask CV210-5 03-Dec-08 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm BIM is an innovative method for bridging communications between the various disciplines in a Civil Engineering project. With BIM, engineers efficiently develop 3D models which can be used to exchange information and digital representation during all stages of the project. Companies can more accurately design, visualize, and analyze designs. The result is the ability to deliver projects faster, and with reduced environmental impact. With Civil 3D® as the cornerstone of the model, we’ll examine the development of the model and the distribution of information to planners, consulting and construction disciplines. This class will look at the BIMenabled analysis tools that can be used for design. BIM enables the evaluation of design scenarios in order to achieve the most sustainable design. Designers and architects can collaborate on a design and achieve the best overall site and building combination for sustainability. 90-Minute Class All Levels Delfino 4005 Matt Kolberg, Software Development Manager | Autodesk Get Your Head Out of the Point Cloud: Using AutoCAD® Civil 3D® for Large Surface Data Sets [Repeat] CV218-1L 03-Dec-08 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm 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 4201 Dana Probert, Civil Software Consultant | Autodesk The Secret World of AutoCAD® Civil 3D® Code Sets CV318-5 04-Dec-08 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm Aren’t corridor objects great? They can update with our design changes and are wonderful for creating finished ground surfaces, calculating volumes, and other tasks. But what about how they look? How can we control their appearance? How do we control the large amount of link, shape, marker, and feature line styles? How do we set things up so they will automatically label section information? How do we create code sets to speed up 3D viewing? Come to this class and all of these things will be revealed! Code sets can increase your productivity and accuracy with a few very simple steps. Put them in your template so they are available to all users. Create custom codes for links and marked points. Create and apply material area fill styles. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Zeno 4609 Martin Young, Infrastructure Technical Specialist | Global CADD Systems Corp. Using AutoCAD® Civil 3D® to Prepare Designs for Machine Control CV318-3 04-Dec-08 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm There is already a wealth of data that is lost when we take our designs and print them for bidding. The final step is now available, where our designs can be downloaded directly to the construction equipment, giving the machine operators direct displays of our site and roadway designs. This class will cover the preparation necessary to format the data, the extra data that needs to be generated, and the formats necessary to deliver the data. We will discuss the differences between delivering DTMs and Road Templates. Examples of a site and a roadway project will be shown, along with an intersection and a roadway ramp. The actual display that the operator sees in the equipment will be emulated to discuss the differences and advantages of each data delivery system. 90-Minute Class Intermediate Delfino 4103 Joe Kubala, President | TMS Conditions for Success: Using the Conditional Subassembly in AutoCAD® Civil 3D® CV114-2 02-Dec-08 3:00 pm - 4:40 pm ® Explore the functionality in Autodesk Raster Design and AutoCAD® Map 3D for working with aerial imagery, viewing DEM data, editing scanned maps and photos, and converting raster data into vector. Learn how to accurately insert georeferenced images; insert and correlate non-referenced images; access and manage imagery using image manipulation tools; improve image display with nonlinear tonal adjustment and palette controls; and create slope and elevation maps from DEM data. The class will also look at draping images on surface models and the raster capabilities of the AutoCAD Map FDO functions. This course is intended for Autodesk® Map 3D, Land Desktop, and Civil 3D® users of all levels. 90-Minute Class All Levels Delfino 4105 Nick Zeeben, CAD Manager | Nolte Associates, Inc. The Basics of 3-Line Profile Grading using Corridors CV210-2 03-Dec-08 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm A look at some basic Corridor modeling concepts used for 3-Line profile design and production using AutoCAD® Civil 3D®. This is a grading-specific session, which details the steps in creating a “street model” for the purposes of curb and gutter, warp intersection and cul-de-sac and knuckle design and production. 90-Minute Class Advanced Marcello 4501 Jeffrey Lyons, Senior Technical Analyst | CAD MicroSolutons Inc. 40
