Week 17-18

Physical & Cloud Worksharing with CDE

By introducing physical and cloud worksharing methodologies within a Common Data Environment, this module underscores the importance of collaborative practices and efficient data management for successful BIM implementation in civil engineering projects. Learn how to integrate and real-time collaborate with your team-mates on BIM models using ACC Collaborate Pro.

WEEK 18-19

BIM Model Coordination and Clash Detection

This module highlights the critical importance of clash coordination within the context of BIM. Clash coordination involves the identification and resolution of clashes or conflicts in a 3D digital model, ensuring seamless collaboration among various disciplines involved in civil engineering projects

WEEK 20

4D, 5D BIM with Navisworks

This module highlights the critical role of time (4D) and cost (5D) dimensions within the BIM process, particularly when utilising Autodesk Navisworks and emphasises how incorporating these dimensions enhances project planning, coordination, and overall project success.

WEEK 21-22

Introduction to Infraworks

This module familiarises civil engineers with Autodesk InfraWorks, a powerful software solution that plays a significant role in the BIM process for infrastructure projects with the capabilities for efficient conceptualization, visualisation, and informed decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.

WEEK 21-22

Prefabrication with TEKLA

This module empowers civil engineers to leverage the capabilities of Tekla Structures for efficient and accurate prefabrication design. It highlights how steel prefabrication, when integrated with BIM, can streamline construction processes, by developing unit-part, assembly & GA drawings followed by machine-readable model files.

WEEK 23-24

Dynamo

This module acquaints civil engineers with Dynamo, a powerful visual scripting tool that extends the functionality of Autodesk Revit for enhanced automation, parametric design, and improved collaboration within the BIM environment.

WEEK 23-24

Primavera

This module empowers professionals to Oracle Primavera, a project management software solution that plays a significant role in the context of BIM for construction management. Primavera is widely recognized for its advanced project planning, scheduling, and control capabilities to streamlined project workflows.

WEEK 25
