Establish the existing conditions model in InfraWorks

Module overview

At the conceptual design phase, both the road designer and bridge designer work inside InfraWorks to identify the best routes for a new road and the location of any bridges. InfraWorks helps you create a model of the existing environment within a matter of minutes using the Model Builder. This automatically brings in roads, waterways, ground imagery, buildings and more. Then, you can enhance the model with additional GIS data and run some initial analysis for constructability using Themes and Styles.  

This module takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. By the end of the module, you should be able to: 

• Use Model Builder to create the existing conditions model
• Analyze the existing conditions for constructability
