The objective of AutoCAD/AutoCAD LT 2012 Fundamentals is to enable students to create a basic 2D drawing in AutoCAD. Even at this fundamental level, AutoCAD is one of the most sophisticated computer applications that you are likely to encounter. Therefore, learning to use it can be challenging. To make the process easier and provide flexibility for instructors and students, the course is divided into two parts that can be taken independently. Part 1 (three days) covers the essential core topics for working with AutoCAD. The teaching strategy is to start with a few basic tools that enable the student to create and edit a simple drawing, and then continue to develop those tools. More advanced tools are introduced throughout the course. Not every command or option is covered, because the intent is to show the most essential tools and concepts. Topics include:

• Understanding the AutoCAD workspace and user interface • Using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools • Organizing drawing objects on layers • Inserting reusable symbols (blocks) • Preparing a layout to be plotted • Adding text, hatching, and dimensions

Part 2 (two days) continues with more sophisticated techniques that extend your mastery of the program. For example, here you go beyond the basic skill of inserting a block to learning how to create blocks, and beyond the basic skill of using a template to understand the process of setting up a template. Learn skills such as:

• Using more advanced editing and construction techniques • Adding parametric constraints to objects • Creating local and global blocks • Setting up layers, styles, and templates • Using advanced plotting and publishing options

Civil 3D 2012 Fundamentals 5 Days @ R 6 000.00 (ex Vat) per person Includes: 1x Original Autodesk Training Manuals, Autodesk Authorized Certificate and Meals

Dates: 16th – 20th July 2012 27th – 31st August 2012 AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) solution for civil engineering design and documentation. Civil 3D is designed for civil engineers, drafters, designers, and technicians working on transportation design, land development, and water projects. The Civil 3D 2012 Fundamentals training guide is designed for Civil Engineers and Surveyors who want to take advantage of AutoCAD Civil 3D software’s interactive, dynamic design functionality. AutoCAD 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 layout pipe networks. Topics include:

• Become familiar with the AutoCAD Civil 3D user interface • Create /Edit Parcels and print parcel reports • Create and manage Points and Point Groups and work with survey figures • Create, edit, view, and analyze surfaces • Create and edit Alignments • Create data shortcuts and vault projects • Create sites, profiles and cross-sections • Create assemblies, corridors, and intersections • Create complex grading solutions • Create pipe networks • Perform quantity takeoff and volume calculations • Utilize Plan productions to create plan profiles sheets.
