OpenRoads is the new combination of InRoads, GEOPAK, and MX. At the Year in Infrastructure 2015 conference, Bentley Systems announced its OpenRoads CONNECT Edition software.
In this course, we are going to go through the basics of Bentley Open Roads Designer Connect Edition.
For this course, we will start with an introduction, overview, keyboard shortcuts, and user interface/navigation in Bentley Open Roads Designer Connect Edition. We will try to go through all the basics to get started. #AulaGEO
We will try to cover up all basic commands to execute and edit horizontal geometries, vertical geometries, super elevations, corridors, and terrains. We will also learn how to visualize different aspects of projects in different ways to get better conceptualization.
In later parts of this course, we will learn about civil cells which are preset templates in Bentley Open Roads Designer Connect Edition that become pretty handy when working on large-scale projects.
Please note that there is no hard and fast rule to execute a specific command as there are multiple approaches to create similar output, however, we will try to follow the simplest approach possible to make this course easy and fun to learn for you.
This section includes:
- Horizontal geometry
- Vertical geometry
- Super elevation
- Corridors – the basics
- Terrain – the basics
- Civil cells
Section 2 – Level II – Advanced Civil Work Design
At this level, we are going to go through different tools of Bentley Open Roads Designer Connect Edition. This is a software version that combines the legacy star products of Bentley for infraworks: InRoads, GEOPAK, and MX. #AulaGEO
We will start with an introduction, overview, keyboard shortcuts, and user interface/navigation in Bentley Open Roads Designer Connect Edition. We will learn the difference between Bentley Open Roads and other similar software. We will try to go through a few basics to get started.
We are going to go through different tools of Bentley Open Roads Designer Connect Edition. It is an intermediate to advanced level course we call it Level 3.
For this course, we will learn a Geotechnical workspace with a quick review of the Gint database, boreholes, and lithology cylinders. In the survey workspace, we will review and change the features of buildings, and terrain, etc. from the survey data. Later in the drawing production stage, we will learn to draft plans and profiles in single and multiple sheets respectively.
We will further grasp the concepts of Annotation, Dimensioning, Hatching, and Labeling. Students will learn how to add tables within Open Roads and from MS Excel. In the last part, the printing process and settings will be explained along with the batch printing procedure. At the end of the course, students will complete a practice exercise, revising the concepts of annotation, dimensioning, hatching, and labeling, etc.
