Autodesk InfraWorks 2023: Fundamentals

This Course provides you with a fundamental knowledge of the accelerated design process that uses data-rich 3D models with high-end visualizations. This enables you to create, evaluate, and better communicate 3D site plan proposals for faster approvals.

Objectives

• Roadway Design:
• Create property boundaries for parcels, easements, and right of ways
• Create and modify design roads with precise parameters
• Add components and decorations to roads
• Adjust roadside grading
• Apply and review superelevations in component roads
• Modify how design roads intersect using a standard intersection or roundabout
• Optimize the vertical design of a roadway
• Create gradient maps based on selected feature sets to identify areas with low impact for site or corridor optimization
• Find an optimal horizontal design of the roadway which yields a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution
• Run traffic simulations to analyze and animate design traffic
• Bridge Design:
• Add bridges to a design roadway
• Work with bridge deck and girder cross sections
• Perform analysis and design checks on all the pre-stressed girders of your bridge
• Drainage Design:
• Run a watershed analysis
• Create or modify culverts
• Create a pavement drainage network
• Analyze the pavement drainage network
• Point Cloud Modeling:
• Preparing the point cloud
• Create a terrain from a point cloud
• Create features from a point cloud
