Visualization and documentation of the bridge design
Creating compelling visuals for stakeholders streamlines the approval process. When you have the design right where you want it, you can document the design.
Course overview
Project Visuals in InfraWorks
Creating compelling visuals for stakeholders streamlines the approval process. Use InfraWorks tools to create both rendered images of the bridge in context of its surroundings and animated walk throughs to help you better communicate the design intent.
Use Civil 3D to Document the Road Design
When you have the design right where you want it, you can document the design. Taking advantage of Sheet Set Manager can speed up the creation of plan and profile sheets.
Documenting and Scheduling Bridge Components
Next you will export the InfraWorks bridge to Revit for documentation. Here you can tag, dimension, detail and schedule the bridge components.

Documenting and Scheduling Bridge Components
Revit is used for bridge design documentation. Here you can tag, dimension, detail and schedule the bridge components. The advantage of exporting the bridge to Revit is that if the InfraWorks model updates, anyone who has the bridge open in Revit will receive a notification that a sync is required. Learn how to add tags and schedules for documenting the design.
Module outline
- Tag bridge elements.
- Create a pier schedule.
- Create a pier foundation schedule.
