1. Making Use of Substation Design Models for Project Estimating Trevor Scullion Managing Director, Automationforce inc

2. In this class, we use Autodesk® Inventor® software to demonstrate techniques to combine a 3D substation project model and component pricing, extract bill of materials (BOM) information, and help estimate station costs. Class summary

3. At the end of this class, you will be able to:  Leverage your existing Autodesk Inventor Models for Estimating  Apply Navisworks Property Mapping to Inventor Models  Use maps to lookup categories of part  Use Virtual Items  User Resources  Built a Complete Project BOM  Export to Excel Key learning objectives

4. Navisworks Overview Demonstration

5. Setting up for Estimating

6.  Inventor Model Attributes  Mapping to Navisworks  Running Analysis Setting Up

7.  Properties  Costing  Dates  Catlog No.  Etc. Inventor Setup

8.  Parameters  Weight  Length  Depth  Any Dimension  Etc.
