The design of roadways is typically based on the development of an alignment, then a profile, and finally a typical section. Many users who design intersections, ramps, or widenings run into difficulties because the process in AutoCAD Civil 3D software assumes that the road edge profile is designed independently of the two centerlines. In this class, you will learn a technique that allows the use of the classic alignment–profile–section process to design a widening, a ramp, or the turning lanes of an intersection. This technique can be used for all types of corridors where the pavement edge elevations are to be controlled by a specified crossfall from another profile or surface.

Learn how we used laser scanning and Building Design Suite to coordinate the installation of a new chiller and air handling unit in the basement of one of Florida's premier performance venues. We demonstrate how we used ReCap™, Revit®-based software, Navisworks® software, and Apple® iPads® tablets to create a 4D clash detection model to preplan the movement of a 8.5-ton chiller into the existing mechanical room. Because performances scheduled throughout the construction limited downtime, having an efficient process was critical. The virtual design and construction (VDC) team learned the most efficient ways to transfer point cloud files using the ReCap RCS format, perform clash detection in the point cloud in Navisworks, create models, and distribute the information to the team for use in the field. This lean process helped all team members visualize and plan their work, and it provided the owner with a useful as-built model for future work.
