Note: This guide is based on the April 2017 release of the Autodesk(R) InfraWorks(R) 360 software. There might be slight differences between the software used in this student guide and other versions of the software.

The Autodesk(R) InfraWorks(R) 2018 Fundamentals for Conceptual Design & Visualization learning guide is designed for people using any of the following software packages:

• Autodesk(R) InfraWorks(R)
• Autodesk(R) Architecture, Engineering and Construction Collection

The learning guide provides you with a fundamental knowledge of the accelerated design process that uses data-rich 3D models with high-end visualizations. This enables you to create, evaluate, and better communicate 3D site plan proposals for faster approvals.

Topics Covered

• Navigate the Autodesk InfraWorks user interface
• Create new models from scratch
• Incorporate existing data sources into the model
• Add essential design elements to the model
• Conceptual roads
• Conceptual bridges
• Conceptual buildings
• Coverages and land areas for shaping terrain
• Pipe networks
• Conceptual railways
• Water features (streams and bodies of water)
• Vegetation, vehicles, and other city furniture
• Display features according to data behind the model
• Create new styles according to project requirements
• Analyze a model to ensure that project constraints are met
• Collaborate with other project team members
• Create high-impact visualizations of the project for better communication
• Generate videos by using storyboards

Prerequisites
A fundamental understanding and knowledge of civil engineering terminology.
