Autodesk InfraWorks for Infrastructure (Roads, Drainage and Bridges) Concept and Preliminary Design Training
Online
Transform civil infrastructure design processes with InfraWorks software. Manage larger-scale infrastructure models created from existing data sources and generate proposals and early design concepts more effectively in the context of the built environment. Rapidly generate data-rich proposals to better predict how design alternatives may perform in the existing environment. Autodesk InfraWorks is a visual 3D design and communication platform for civil engineers, designers, and land planners which enables you to:
​
-
Build context for your designs.
-
Create, explore, and evaluate your designs.
-
Envision and understand the implications and impacts of the project Explore multiple alternatives.
-
Share and develop better designs through collaboration.
-
Get a jump start on detailed design and documentation.
The Autodesk InfraWorks Fundamentals course is designed to enable learners acquire basic skills and fundamental functionalities of Autodesk InfraWorks.
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 super-elevations 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 analyse 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.
-
Analyse the pavement drainage network.
