Dive deep into the world of structural modeling and documentation, starting with the basics and progressing to advanced concepts. You'll begin by crafting a structural model based on a linked architectural design laying the groundwork with structural levels and grids.

From there, immerse yourself in the intricacies of foundation and steel design and then learn how to place floors, slabs, and reinforcement in your model. Create different views of the model to display information, culminating in the creation of professional-grade construction documents. Along the way, you’ll get details on how to use analytical automation and add loads to your model for analysis. In the concluding lessons, you’ll discover how to collaborate with team members using Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC). You'll learn important concepts and get hands-on practice with engaging exercises and an accompanying dataset. Elevate your skills and transform your approach to structural design with this comprehensive and interactive learning experience.

After completing this course, you’ll be able to:

Describe building information modeling (BIM) and its role in structural engineering.
Create a new project using an architectural model.
Create structural foundations.
Model structural steel systems.
Place structural floors and slabs.
Add structural reinforcing.
Create and manage views, sections and callouts.
Query the model to create documentation and schedules.
Use Civil 3D to place a project using shared coordinates.
Workshare Revit models to the cloud.

Add levels

Video quiz

A structural designer creates levels at the top of steel, which is deliberately 152 mm lower than the architectural level. How does the structural designer create an alert if the architectural level moves in the linked model?
