Autodesk InfraWorks 2019: Engineering Design (Imperial Units): Autodesk Authorized Publisher - Paperback

by Ascent -. Center for Technical Knowledge (Author)

Note: This guide is based on the April 2018 release of the Autodesk^(R) InfraWorks^(R) software. There might be slight differences between the software used in this guide and other versions of the software.

The Autodesk^(R) InfraWorks^(R) 2019: Engineering Design guide is designed for people using any of the following software packages:

• Autodesk^(R) InfraWorks^(R)
• Autodesk^(R) Architecture, Engineering and Construction Collection

The 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

• 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 simulation 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

Prerequisites

• Access to the 2019 version of the software (April 2018 release). The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions.
• A fundamental understanding of how to navigate the Autodesk InfraWorks software. This includes how to create new models, add and modify features to those models.
• It is recommended that you first study the Autodesk InfraWorks Fundamentals for Conceptual Design & Visualization learning guide.
