Infinite Skills | Autodesk Revit Architecture 2013 Tutorial Video Course Provides Beginner-Ready Training in BIM Software


(PRWEB) July 26, 2012

Training development company InfiniteSkills Inc has announced its new Autodesk Revit Architecture 2013 Tutorial Video Course, designed to provide a convenient and professional guide to the fundamentals of the industry-leading BIM (Building Information Modeling) solution.

The course includes 89 lessons covering topics from importing CAD files created in other programs to rendering finished models ready for virtual walkthroughs. Available on DVD-ROM or as a direct download from the InfiniteSkills website, the 6.5 hour tutorial uses a self-directed learning model to allow viewers to learn entirely at their own pace.

Autodesk Revit Architecture 2013 Tutorial Video – Training Course for Beginners

Beginning with a basic introduction to BIM concepts and the Revit family of software, the Revit Architecture 2013 training first goes through the program’s user interface, examining the ribbon, project browser and key menus used in professional building design. Next, author Jay Polding moves into project setup, helping viewers work with location settings and CAD imports to create a toposurface and raw outline of the structure to be built, a dinosaur-themed museum that serves as a common model throughout the course.

The Revit training moves piece by piece through viable building design, showing how to create walls, floors, stairs, roofs, ceilings and more. As each component is covered, the Revit tutorials examine the most common professional approaches as well as variations the viewer is likely to encounter in real world projects.

Colortrac to Co-Sponsor Autodesk University Russia 2012 in Moscow

(PRWEB) August 21, 2012

Colortrac Executive Director Peter Brown commented Colortrac have joined with our exclusive distributor Russian Industrial Company who are also an Autodesk Gold Partner, to exhibit a selected range of Colortrac SmartLF wide format scanners and SmartWorks Pro software. We aim to demonstrate how the Colortrac SmartLF range of large format scanners such as the SmartLF SC42 or SmartLF Gx+ 42 can be integrated into your CAD systems to help support the transfer of paper archives to electronic document format.

Coupled with a set of advanced tools for managing the scanning and digital archive of technical documentation, the Colortrac SmartLF wide format scanner solutions can provide customers with the ability to fully utilise the resulting bitmap image, by converting them into vectorized versions of topographical maps, construction plan drawings etc. This operation is done using Autodesk Raster Design which is now also available in a number of other software packages such as AutoCAD Design Suite 2013 and Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite 2013.

The vectorized data can also be transferred to Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD Civil 3D or Autodesk Revit Architecture for producing 3D-model details, topography and building representations. These may then be incorporated into other project processes or advanced enterprise workflows.

Join us at Autodesk University Russia 2012 to see live demonstrations of how the Colortrac SmartLF large format scanners and SmartWorks Pro software can create images that add value to your workflow operations. Our experts will be ready to advise you on any stage of the workflow.
