This session will delve into the exciting integration of InfoDrainage software with Civil 3D, a development with the potential to revolutionize drainage design in civil engineering. With its advanced features and capabilities for both traditional and green infrastructure, InfoDrainage aligns perfectly with the versatile functionalities of Civil 3D, paving the way for more-streamlined, efficient, and environmentally sustainable design workflows. We will explore the unique features of InfoDrainage, how they can be integrated with Civil 3D, and the benefits of this integration in improving the accuracy and speed of drainage designs. We'll provide practical insights into the integration process, giving you a clear understanding of how to use these tools effectively in your projects.

This class will showcase a connected data workflow used to deliver large water and sewer infrastructure projects from design to commissioning. This is accomplished with a systematic use of Civil 3D software and ArcGIS integration, asset data governance, and Industry Foundation classes (IFC) for digital-twin commissioning. The sewer and water designs are first developed in Civil 3D. Dynamo and Python are used to attach a class library as property set data and generate a spreadsheet model database. The spreadsheet is linked to an Esri geodatabase through geoprocessing and Python. This geodatabase is updated with field-collected attribute data and as-built data via Esri Field Maps. The computational process is reversed to update the spreadsheet and subsequently the Civil 3D model. The model is delivered as-built, and an IFC version containing the asset data is exported for the owner's digital-twin ecosystem.

Before we consider paperless building sites and PDF-free projects, we'll need to accelerate the process of modeling and make it reliable. SOFiSTiK proposes Rebar Modeler and Rebar Templates tools for Revit 2023 and 2024. In this session, you'll see how easy it is to build your clash-free reinforcement models in both worlds: civil buildings and bridge and infrastructure models. Revit has evolved a lot over the last years, and SOFiSTiK has used the software at its finest level.

In today's fast-paced construction landscape, precision and productivity are more crucial than ever. In this session, HP will share its vision for the in AEC, highlighting how HP Construction Services is bridging the gap between the digital and physical worlds—from design to layout to on-site execution. Learn how HP SitePrint, has evolved, delivering unmatched speed, accuracy, and consistency on construction sites. Today, SitePrint goes even further, now offering floor deviation marking capabilities. This advancement allows teams to mark both layout and deviation points in a single, real-time process, helping crews identify out-of-tolerance areas early and streamline coordination across trades. Discover how HP is helping Construction Professionals build with confidence by rethinking layout and enabling smarter, connected construction workflows that improve productivity and reduce rework.

Digital Prototypings are transforming the infrastructure and construction industry by bridging the gap between physical and digital realms. Join us at Autodesk University for a dynamic meetup where we’ll dive into the complexities, practical realities, and future of Digital Prototyping technology.

We'll also explore how data insights are driving intelligent construction and fostering integrated ecosystems.
Whether you're evaluating the potential of Digital Prototyping technology, seeking to understand its benefits for Infrastructure and Construction, or looking to connect with industry experts over casual networking, this meetup has something for everyone. Hosted by knowledgeable Autodesk employees from our research, product and consulting teams, participants will gain valuable insights, share experiences, and build meaningful connections.
Join us for an engaging conversation on what it takes to bring Digital Prototypings to life and explore the future of construction and infrastructure through the lens of this transformative technology.

Don't have plans or any design details for a given bridge? Join us for an insightful discussion on how Parsons and Autodesk have teamed up to use high-resolution photogrammetry coupled with Autodesk’s newest Reality Capture capabilities to streamline the creation of existing-condition intelligent models for downstream bridge design and analysis. This session will showcase the innovative collaboration between industry leaders and the transformative impact that advanced technology is having on bridge engineering.

In the summer of 2023, Cleveland, Ohio, faced extreme convective storms that caused localized flooding due to intense rainfall overwhelming catch basins. However, a catchment flood model simulation showed no flooding, highlighting the model’s failure to capture surface water. To address catchment model limitations, Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District (NEORSD) partnered with MIT to develop a regional, 2D, ICM model. This research develops a scalable, data-driven, pluvial flood model using a 2D, rain-on-mesh, ICM hydrodynamic model with detailed urban textures. The ICM model findings accurately replicated observed flood locations. High-resolution model validation is key, supported by advances in sensors, monitoring, and crowd-sourced data (though often underused). NEORSD and the City of Cambridge (Massachusetts) offer rich data sets. This presentation will showcase a novel validation framework integrating remote sensing and real-time data, applied to a city-scale, high-resolution flood model in Cleveland and Cambridge in collaboration with local agencies.
