This course will cover a variety of options to help you develop your own presentations while improving your productivity and efficiency. This includes sections on shop drawings, general arrangement drawings, as well as bill-of-materials.  \nSpeaker  \nPhilippe Bonneau is the Technical Marketing Manager for Advance Steel software at Autodesk. Prior to joining Autodesk, Philippe spent 20 years filling various roles in the structural industry, including working in steel engineering & detailing companies and then acting as product manager for Advance Steel at a Platinum Autodesk partner. Philippe attended the University du Maine in Le Mans, France. He is based in Paris, France.  \nBest practices for creating the documentation  \nThis section will walk you through different methods for checking your 3D model and will cover best practices for creating the documentation with tools available out-of-the-box in Advance Steel 2019.  \nValidate your 3D model  \nIt is always a good thing to check your model before creating the documentation out of it, in Advance Steel you will find different tools for checking e.g. if elements are well-connected together and if the numbering has been run correctly.  \nModel browser  \nThe Model Browser provides a complete control of all the elements of the model. You can open the Model Browser at any time to get up-to-date information on each object. The list of elements and their properties are displayed as a table. The set of displayed properties can be customized by adding or removing columns.  \nDisplay an entire assembly  \nYou can easily display an entire assembly, just pick any part in your 3D model and display what is shop-bolted or shop-welded with this part by using the “Show only selected assemblies” icon.  \nMark loose parts  \nYou can easily find and mark loose parts (= standalone parts) in red color by clicking“Mark loose parts” icon.  \nShop drawings  \nAdvance Steel provides ready-to-use templates that aid the creation of high-quality shop drawings.  \nUse a dedicated process for selected parts  \nYou can use the Search tool to find specific parts    \nand then create their shop drawings with a drawing process based on selected parts.  \nInclude a Qty per assembly list on a Single Part drawing  \nThe “Qty per assembly” will list the number of instances per assembly which helps organize the fabrication at the workshop.  \nAdd a 3D view on an assembly drawing  \nYou can easily add an isometric view of a (complex) assembly to its shop drawing.  \nGeneral Arrangement drawings  \nGeneral arrangement drawings can be quickly created in isometric, top, elevation, and anchor views, and automatically dimensioned and labeled by using drawing styles or processes.  \nCreate views with cameras  \nYou need to create cameras at key locations before you start generating the (general arrangement) drawings.  \nIn the camera properties tab, you can specify the type of camera and the style & scale tobe used to generate the drawing using this camera.  \nYou can then create drawings from the cameras using drawing processes and edit the cameras later to adjust the resulting drawing views.  \nCreate a callout view  \nYou can use the feature “Call out on drawing” to create a call-out from a 2D view or 3D view on your drawing.  \nLabels in dimensions  \nBoth automatic and manual dimension lines can be affixed with a text label entered by the user or filled automatically by using available attributes.  \nDimensioned grid on an","cbCaisJi4Uw3elJe","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisJi4Uw3elJe","pdf",4510856,"English","# Learning Objectives\n# Description\n# Speaker\n# Best practices for creating the documentation\n## Validate your 3D model\n## Model browser\n## Display an entire assembly\n## Mark loose parts\n# Shop drawings\n## Use a dedicated process for selected parts\n## Include a Qty per assembly list on a Single Part drawing\n## Add a 3D view on an assembly drawing\n# General Arrangement drawings\n## Create views with cameras\n## Create a callout view\n## Labels in dimensions\n## Dimensioned grid on an isometric view\n## Show main parts with hidden lines\n## Show main parts with exact representation","[{\"question\":\"What is the main goal of the class?\",\"answer\":\"To help users use Advance Steel features to create documentation and presentations that look great, while improving productivity and efficiency.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the course suggest validating the 3D model before documentation?\",\"answer\":\"Use Advance Steel tools to check that elements are well-connected and that numbering has been run correctly before creating documentation from the model.\"},{\"question\":\"What key tools and methods are covered for generating shop drawings and general arrangement drawings?\",\"answer\":\"The class covers ready-to-use shop drawing templates, processes based on selected parts, adding Qty per assembly lists and 3D views, and creating general arrangement views with cameras, callouts, labeled dimensions, and custom drawing styles for visibility and representation.\"}]","Tricks for Getting Great-Looking Advance Steel Presentations - Best practices and advanced options | PDF",1789208234]
