Live eSeminars

Using ProjectWise to Supercharge Your Revit Workflow and Performance

Please join us for a no-cost LIVE eSeminar featuring ProjectWise, which has several mission-critical infrastructure and management benefits that support Revit. This combination allows organizations to develop and support a single data management platform. Revit users file I/O operations and team collaboration will be improved by ProjectWise collaboration and network performance optimizations without adding expensive network hardware appliances.

In this eSeminar, users will learn about:

• Multivendor software support – Manage design and construction information to streamline information sharing throughout integrated project teams.
• Delta File Transfer (DFT) – Discover how V8i solves the "big file" problem that traditionally slows productivity across distributed project teams.
• Model review – Learn how to create an i-model that is information rich, reliable, and optimized for purpose. Easily create 3D PDF for immersive model review.

GC and Interoperability

In this eSeminar, users will learn about:

• Learn to work with legacy data using Import, Export, and Referencing.
• Explore the new feature "ElementSensor" to benefit from existing files.
• Share their work with other platforms like Rhino, Revit, and 3DS.

Integrated GIS & Hydraulic Modelling Workflows for Water and Sewer Networks

This seminar will demonstrate the interoperability of Bentley’s water distribution and sewer modelling software solution. In particular, we will show integration between GIS asset data and hydraulic models using WaterGEMS and SewerGEMS. The GIS data can be based on ArcGIS geospatial databases, MicroStation DGN files, CAD files, Shape files, Oracle Spatial, and other spatial data stores.

In this eSeminar, users will learn to:

• Utilise virtually any GIS data source to help support hydraulic modelling efforts, using WaterGEMS and SewerGEMS’ ModelBuilder.
• Keep your GIS asset data current with your hydraulic model using bidirectional synchronization.
• Maintain associations between records in your source file and elements in your model, with the new GIS-ID property.
• Use Network Navigator to assist in finding and fixing network topology and connectivity issues resulting from inconsistent source data.
• Work within an ArcGIS environment and quickly build hydraulic models using WaterGEMS geospatial features, and more.

BIM Features for GC

In this eSeminar, users will learn about:

• Learn about BIM Features, an add-on that introduces walls, structural members, doors, and windows as features in GenerativeComponents.
• Explore DynamicViews in GenerativeComponents, which enables rule-based drawing extraction including re-symbolization.
