Note: This learning guide is the second of a two-part series, with each guide sold separately. The Autodesk(R) Civil 3D(R) 2022: Fundamentals guide is designed for Civil Engineers and Surveyors who want to take advantage of the Autodesk(R) Civil 3D(R) software's interactive, dynamic design functionality. The Autodesk Civil 3D software permits the rapid development of alternatives through its model-based design tools. You will learn techniques enabling you to organize project data, work with points, create and analyze surfaces, model road corridors, create parcel layouts, perform grading and volume calculation tasks, and lay out pipe networks. Topics Covered Learn the Autodesk Civil 3D 2022 user interface. Create and edit parcels and print parcel reports. Create points and point groups and work with survey figures. Create and manage styles and label styles. Create, edit, view, and analyze surfaces. Create and edit alignments. Create data shortcuts. Create a Civil 3D template drawing. Create sites, profiles, and cross-sections. Create assemblies, corridors, and intersections. Create grading solutions. Create gravity fed and pressure pipe networks. Perform quantity takeoff and volume calculations. Use plan production tools to create plan and profile sheets. Prerequisites Access to the 2022.0 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions (e.g., 2021). Experience with AutoCAD(R) or AutoCAD-based products and a sound understanding and knowledge of civil engineering terminology.

The Autodesk(R) Civil 3D(R) 2023: Fundamentals for Surveyors guide is for surveyors and survey technicians that do not necessarily need all of the functionality that is taught in the Autodesk Civil 3D: Fundamentals guide. This guide equips the surveyor with the basic knowledge required to use Autodesk Civil 3D efficiently in a typical daily workflow. You will learn how to import converted field equipment survey data into a standardized environment in Autodesk Civil 3D and to use the automation tools to create an Existing Conditions Plan. Data collection and traverses are also covered. Other topics that help in increasing efficiency include styles, correct AutoCAD(R) drafting techniques, the methodology required to create linework effectively for variables used in defining symbology, surfaces, categorizing points, and using online maps. Topics Covered The Autodesk Civil 3D interface Points overview and styles Importing points and coordinate transformations Creating points and drafting Point groups, grips, and reports Point security and editing Introduction to data collection in the field Introduction to Civil 3D Survey and automated linework Survey networks Coordinate Geometry Editor for entering traverse information or legal descriptions Surface overview Surface editing Surface labels and analysis Prerequisites Access to the 2023.0 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide might not be compatible with prior versions (e.g., 2022). Experience with AutoCAD or AutoCAD-based products and a basic understanding of Surveying is recommended.

The Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) CAM 2022: Milling Fundamentals guide focuses on instructing new users on how to use the Inventor CAM add-on to create milling toolpaths. The guide begins with an introduction to the overall Inventor interface and explains how to manipulate your 3D model to change its orientation and view display. Through additional hands-on, practice-intensive curriculum, you will learn the key skills and knowledge required to take the 3D model, set it up in the CAM environment, and assign the 2D and 3D milling toolpaths needed to generate the CNC code required by milling machines. Topics Covered Navigate the Inventor software interface to locate and execute commands. Use the model orientation commands to pan, zoom, rotate, and look at a model. Assign visual styles to your models. Locate, modify, and create tools in the Tool Library. Set up machining operations using Inventor CAM. Create 2D Milling, 3D Milling and Drilling toolpaths using the Inventor CAM interface. Use the Simulation option to visualize toolpaths. Import a tool library. Create a toolpath template. Post process an Inventor CAM setup to output the CNC code required to machine a model. Prerequisites Access to the 2022 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide are not compatible with prior versions (e.g., 2021). As an introductory guide, Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) CAM 2022: Milling Fundamentals does not assume prior knowledge of Autodesk Inventor CAM. However, this guide will not provide instructional content on how to create 3D models using the Inventor modeling tools. Its focus is solely on generating 2D and 3D milling and drilling toolpaths once models are created. The Autodesk(R) Inventor(R) 2022: Introduction to Solid Modeling guide should be used to learn to create 3D models. It is recommended that users have prior experience with the Windows operating system, knowledge of 3D model creation/modification, and an understanding of the CNC milling process.
