Over the past few weeks, some really good CE News webcasts were held.

Water Infrastructure Design & Management Webcast Series, Part 3
Automation Innovations in Stormwater Modeling
Automation innovations in Autodesk’s recently released water resource engineering software allows civil engineers to more efficiently and economically complete stormwater analysis and design projects. This presentation showcases a stormwater project in which a major engineering firm was able to complete a 30 square mile metropolitan stormwater management plan in half of the time that it would normally have taken.
This project incorporated wetlands, ponds, streams, and stormwater pipe and ditch networks, and the stormwater management plan had to accommodate 10 and 100-year storms and comply with city, county, state and federal EPA standards. This project was completed within 5 weeks, using a variety of CAD and GIS source data to construct the model. The final model was turned over to the city stormwater utility department to use on future projects, particularly in evaluating the impact of new developments on existing structures.

CE/RAI Transportation Webcast Series, Part 2
Visualizing Civil Designs with the Power of BIM
Every design has a story to tell, and design visualization is the key to telling that story in a compelling fashion. Whether you are taking designs through review and approval processes or soliciting public comment, impressive design visualizations can make a difference.
And, working in a BIM environment makes using visualization as part of the design process much more accessible. Through project examples, learn how design visualization plays a role throughout a project from exploring project alternatives, to validating designs, to communicating design intent to project stakeholders, to winning more work for your organization.

It took me a few minutes to figure out how to launch the archives because I don’t have my glasses on. In case you have the same problem… Just click the “Launch Presentation” button at the bottom of the landing page.
