Note: This guide is based on the April 2017 release of the Autodesk® InfraWorks® 360 software. There might be slight differences between the software used in this student guide and other versions of the software.
The Autodesk® InfraWorks® 2018 Fundamentals for Conceptual Design & Visualization learning guide is designed for people using any of the following software packages:
- Autodesk InfraWorks
- Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection
This learning guide 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.
Topics Covered:
- Navigate the Autodesk InfraWorks user interface
- Create new models from scratch
- Incorporate existing data sources into the model
- Add essential design elements to the model
- Conceptual roads
- Conceptual bridges
- Conceptual buildings
- Coverages and land areas for shaping terrain
- Pipe networks
- Conceptual railways
- Water features (streams and bodies of water)
- Vegetation, vehicles, and other city furniture
- Display features according to data behind the model
- Create new styles according to project requirements
- Analyze a model to ensure that project constraints are met
- Collaborate with other project team members
- Create high-impact visualizations of the project for better communication
- Generate videos by using storyboards
Prerequisites:
A fundamental understanding and knowledge of civil engineering terminology.
