In this technical session, we'll go through the entire corridor workflow using the new corridor interface. Here we'll look at creating a corridor with multiple baselines (alignments and feature lines). We'll also add corridor transitions to the model and review best practices. We'll also incorporate several custom subassemblies into the model. This will be an in-depth look at ways these new tools can improve our corridor model.

The complexity of bid packages, which combine 3D models and 2D drawings, has estimators worldwide struggling to calculate accurate quantities. The added pressure of receiving updated bid packages has also caused estimators to work long hours and have sleepless nights. The result is either not winning the job or winning with little profit. This is where Autodesk Takeoff software—the cloud-based 2D and 3D QTO tool hosted on Autodesk Construction Cloud—is proving to be a game changer. This lab will focus on giving attendees a hands-on experience of the connected takeoff process using the industry-leading automated 3D takeoff capabilities combined with easy-to-use 2D takeoff tools. You'll learn the process of setting up 3D and 2D takeoff types, adding unit cost to takeoff types, performing accurate takeoffs, updating the bid package with the new set of drawings, comparing existing snapshots to active takeoff currently in progress, and then exporting the combined 3D and 2D takeoff inventory.

Ensuring accuracy in a large set of construction documents can be complicated. Spelling errors, missed annotation, and multiple users on a project can still waste a project's budget time when they don't need to. Automating the keynote creating and editing process can help eliminate these time wasters, saving considerable time and money for some of our most basic needs. This lesson will cover a feature in AutoCAD software that will use an Excel file as one source of truth for keynotes on construction documents. We'll create a table that will be dynamically populated with keynotes as they are used in a drawing, allowing for concise tables that, along with the Excel file, can be updated together to match for the duration of project design. Any engineering discipline using AutoCAD will be able to use this workflow.

Today, much of the mechanical design has been completed before electrical design has barely started, practically eliminating any possibility of effective mechanical-electrical co-design. We propose an integrated MCAD-ECAD flow, harnessing generative AI to make mechanical electrical co-design a reality—to achieve optimal design and reduce turnaround time, design churn, and cost. We'll show how integration between Autodesk Fusion software and OrCAD X combined with Cadence's generative-AI printed circuit board (PCB) design solution, can transform mechanical-electrical co-design. The flow helps users achieve two seemingly contradictory goals: shift-left for mechanical and electrical engineers and shift-right for layout designers. In hours, mechanical/electrical engineers can get information like fully placed boards and thermal profiles early in design cycle, while PCB designers can start their work when the design is stable. This flow can help users reduce design cost and turnaround time, and create much more optimal designs.

This session will provide hands-on instruction in the use of the Grading Optimization extension in Civil 3D software. We'll explore the product features and put the software to use on a commercial/retail development project. The instruction will use many of the included grading objects (i.e., building pads, curbs, drain lines, ponds, and more) to quickly develop a proposed surface, and import the results back to Civil 3D.

Subassembly Composer for Civil 3D software is an amazingly powerful tool for anyone who uses corridors in Civil 3D. There are so many situations where the built-in subassemblies just won't get you what you need. In this class you'll get a chance to build your own subassemblies and see them in action in Civil 3D. We'll start off with a simple shape, and then continue on to something more complex with targets and logical decisions.

Heathrow Airport is the fourth-busiest airport in the world, serving more than 80 million passengers annually.

Discover how we create a digital community where we can test new ideas in a real-world setting and help change to be embraced.

While it's common knowledge that additive manufacturing (AM) has become an integral tool in product development, it can be difficult to know how to fit AM into your workflow. In this talk, we'll discuss how to effectively use AM to accelerate product development and prepare designs to ramp up to production. We will include an overview of the common additive technologies and materials currently used by product designers, and look at the advantages and disadvantages of each from a product development perspective. Building on this overview, we'll discuss example workflows and case studies where additive manufacturing was used effectively to reduce time to market and mitigate process and design risk.

Creating custom bridge parts ready for modeling transportation projects in InfraWorks software can be challenging for the uninitiated. This class will provide the chance to learn how to create these parts using both the Revit and Inventor methodologies from scratch in a hands-on environment. We will look at the benefits of each method and how each can be incorporated into a transportation project and progressed through the workflow from modeling in InfraWorks to the documentation phase in Revit. These techniques will be worked through in the context of bridge engineering, but they will also be applicable to tunneling.

This presentation will focus on using the integration between Autodesk Construction Cloud, Revit, Power Automate, and Power BI software to effectively manage projects and family creation. Using Power Automate, project management tasks in Autodesk Construction Cloud are automated, reducing team members' workloads. Power BI is then used to analyze data collected from Autodesk Construction Cloud, providing real-time insights into project progress and performance for swift decision making. Additionally, in family creation, collaboration with domestic equipment manufacturers facilitates semiautomated creation of families with manufacturer specifications. Integration with Inventor software streamlines the creation of equipment parts like support steel, further enhancing the efficiency of the family creation process. Finally, the created families are managed in a database within Power BI, contributing to improved project productivity.

Arup has made a significant commitment to sustainability in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry by pledging to conduct whole life carbon assessments (WLCA) for all its building projects. This initiative is part of a broader industry movement toward responsible resource management and sustainable development. The creation of "Zero," a digital platform for carbon assessment, reflects Arup's dedication to influencing design practices and decision making toward the reduction of carbon emissions. The platform benefits from data gathered from 1,000+ projects worldwide, and has been showcased at the Global Building Forum. This session will provide an overview of collaborative efforts (including those with Autodesk) aimed at standardizing a WLCA data schema and methodologies; resolving disparities between global and local carbon data sources' using digital technology to capture, store, and enhance data quality; and extracting design recommendations from data analytics to promote global sustainability efforts.

This session will look at the full parametrization of an automated rebar modeling and drawing extraction used for infrastructure projects using Civil 3D, Revit, and Dynamo. This idea advances the automation of building information modeling (BIM) for bridge and tunnel reinforcement by developing a novel workflow in Germany's most progressive state, THE LÄND. Using a parametric template for rebars, the study integrates Dynamo, facilitating the automatic generation of intelligent models and rebar schedules. This method was successfully applied to real, large-scale, bridge and tunnel projects, demonstrating its effectiveness. The workflow enables automatic extraction of detailed rebar drawings and annotations. By streamlining project execution and enhancing data coherence, this integrated approach significantly improves BIM lifecycle management for infrastructure construction. The underlying ontology connecting normative requirements, FE results, and our long-term experience is the final step on our road map for an AI-based reinforcement generation.
