CI1697-R: Bridge Modeling Approaches Dave Simeone – Senior Product Manager, AutoCAD Civil 3D Edmundo Herrera – Autodesk Technical Specialist, Transportation Ara Ashikian – Product Manager, Autodesk Bridge Solutions

 CI1697-R - This roundtable session focuses on the Autodesk® solution for design and implementation of typical overpass bridges. We also evaluate approaches for working with tunnels, retaining walls, and other structural elements that are common to road, rail, and highway projects. Attendees can learn how these structures can be initially located by the roadway engineer in the context of the road or rail model, further designed and detailed by the structural engineer, and finally used by the contractor for construction planning. Key to this workflow is the ability for all project participants including civil, structural, contractors, and owners to work in a coordinated way with the goal of reducing production cost, compressing project timeline, mitigating risk and improving the overall quality of the end product. This session has a live walk-through of the process, primarily using a combination of Autodesk® AutoCAD® Civil 3D®, the Civil 3D Bridge Module, and Autodesk® Revit® Structure software. Class summary
