The video lessons are structured to match the exam’s objective domains and follow the typical workflow and features of the Autodesk® AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software, including sections on points, parcels, and surveying, surfaces and grading, alignments and profiles, corridors and sections, pipe networks, and plan production and data management. In the course, you'll review advanced infrastructure topics. You’ll work with points and point groups, parcels and parcel styles, and the surveying tools. You'll also gain an understanding of exam topics such as TIN surfaces and volume surfaces, profile views, and both pipe and pressure networks. Brush up on feature lines, sites and grading models, corridors, note label styles, data shortcuts, and much more.
The provided Civil 3D dataset allows you to follow along with the lessons and try out methods and workflows. Practice exercises and challenge assignments help you practice and review the exam topics on your own. Finally, you can test your knowledge by taking one of the full practice exams that accompany the course.

What You Will Learn

  • Work with point and point groups, parcels, surveying tools, surfaces, alignments, and profiles.
  • Create corridors, sections, pipe, and pressure networks.
  • Use workflows for plan production such as creating note label styles, view frames and sheets, and data shortcuts.
  • Demonstrate the skills and knowledge required for taking the Autodesk Certified Professional: Civil 3D for Infrastructure Design exam.

Syllabus

WEEK 1
Points, Parcels, Surfaces, and Grading
In Week 1, we'll covers the key aspects of the Civil 3D project, from creating points and point groups to creating and modifying parcels and using the surveying tools. You’ll get an in-depth review of surfaces, feature lines, sites, and grading models.

WEEK 2
Alignments, Profiles, Corridors, Pipe Networks, and Plan Production
In Week 2, we'll go deeper into Civil 3D projects, with sections on creating alignments and profiles, corridors and sections, and pipe networks. You’ll also learn about plan production and data management, important aspects of any civil engineer or designer’s job.

Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics 1 (Coursera)

An appreciation of thermodynamics is required to become a chemical and biomolecular engineer. Thermodynamics can assess the viability of a process and is one of the curriculum's most essential topics. The principles are utilized in following engineering courses (kinetics, mass transfer, design, materials) and are applicable to numerous engineering disciplines. The increased emphasis on energy usage and transformation as a result of rising demand, diminishing supply, and global warming necessitates that the engineers who will tackle these issues have a firm grasp of thermodynamics.

Quantitative Formal Modeling and Worst-Case Performance Analysis (Coursera)

Welcome to Quantitative Formal Modeling and Worst-Case Performance Analysis. In this course, you will learn about modeling and solving performance problems in a fashion popular in theoretical computer science, and generally train your abstract thinking skills. After finishing this course, you have learned to think about the behavior of systems in terms of token production and consumption, and you are able to formalize this thinking mathematically in terms of prefix orders and counting functions. You have learned about Petri-nets, about timing, and about scheduling of token consumption/production systems, and for the special class of Petri-nets known as single-rate dataflow graphs, you will know how to perform a worst-case analysis of basic performance metrics, like throughput, latency and buffering.
