ASCENT- Center for Technical Knowledge® Releases New Title: Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite 2014: BIM Workflow for Roads and Highways
Rand Worldwide announced that its courseware division, ASCENT- Center for Technical Knowledge, today released the latest Autodesk Official Training Guide (AOTG) – Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite 2014: BIM Workflow for Roads and Highways. This training guide is the first ever by ASCENT to integrate a suite of software so that planners, engineers-in-training, and civil and transportation engineers can immediately integrate workflows across the Autodesk software products to intelligently leverage the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process.
“As Autodesk suites include more software products with enhanced capabilities, the power of BIM workflows increases,” says Michelle Rasmussen, Senior Instructional Designer, ASCENT. “When Autodesk asked us to develop this training guide, the vision was to ensure the engineer could immediately start leveraging the full power of BIM using this robust software suite. To reach this goal, we knew we had to create a training guide that would connect the software pieces together so that the end-user could develop effective workflows that would dramatically increase their effectiveness.”
Comprehensive Training Guide
This unique training guide walks through an example of a workflow for a road and highway design project using Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite Ultimate. Students will use Autodesk InfraWorks, AutoCAD Civil 3D, Autodesk Navisworks Manage, Autodesk 360, AutoCAD WS, and Autodesk 3ds Max Design to complete a road design project from project planning through visual communication and construction documentation.
Ideal for both individual self-study use and instructor-led classroom use, this guide focuses on teaching a workflow for designing roads and highways to help Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite Ultimate users be more efficient, accelerate project approvals, and win more work. It is the only AOTG training guide that walks through the project oriented workflow using the multiple products of a software suite.
