Modern rail design demands more than just precision—it also demands speed, adaptability, and coordination across disciplines. Traditional CAD workflows, often manual and rigid, struggle to keep up with frequent design changes and complex geometries.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how parametric CAD modeling is transforming the way that rail and road infrastructure is designed—from early geometry to final deliverables. We’ll explore how constraints, variables, and rule-based logic can be applied to automate design geometry, minimize manual rework, and ensure model integrity throughout the project lifecycle.

You’ll also discover how parametric cells simplify repetitive detailing tasks and how design changes propagate automatically, cutting down on errors and improving turnaround time. Whether you’re working on alignments, corridors, or component-based design elements—such as overhead line equipment, masts, and guardrails—this session will help you make the shift toward smarter, model-driven design.

What you will learn:

• Introduction to Parametric CAD Modeling in Infrastructure Design
• Differences between traditional CAD workflows and parametric modeling
• Benefits of using constraints, variables, and rule-based design to reduce errors
• Using parametric cells for repetitive design elements (e.g., OLE masts, guardrails)

In today’s fast-paced infrastructure projects, the demand for accurate, up-to-date, and as-built documentation is greater than ever. Yet, manual processes often introduce errors, delays, and compliance risks—especially when working with complex, multidiscipline models.

This webinar is designed for BIM modelers and design engineers looking to transform how they produce as-built deliverables. We’ll explore CAD-based workflows that automatically generate 2D drawings, 3D models, and compliance-ready documentation directly from federated models.

You’ll learn how to eliminate redundant manual drafting, ensure 2D outputs stay synchronized with 3D changes, and streamline project handover using rule-driven automation. From quantity take-offs to regulatory formats, we’ll walk through practical strategies to save time, reduce errors, and boost confidence in your deliverables.

What you will learn:

• Understand the role of accurate as-built documentation in infrastructure project closeouts and why it matters for clients, contractors, and regulators
• Learn how to extract 2D and 3D deliverables directly from your 3D CAD models, ensuring every drawing stays in sync with design changes—automatically
• Discover best practices for standardizing deliverables, ensuring consistency and compatibility with client and regulatory handover requirements

This webinar is designed for BIM modelers, digital coordinators, and project managers who want to streamline coordination across disciplines using a federated 3D CAD modeling approach.

We’ll explore how CAD platforms, such as MicroStation, support efficient collaboration by referencing multiple discipline-specific models into a single, federated environment. Learn how to link civil, structural, and MEP designs, optimize model performance, and avoid clashes—without compromising model integrity or speed.

From managing massive datasets to enabling smoother handoffs via ProjectWise, this session will give you practical tools and proven methods to take your multidisciplinary coordination to the next level.

What you will learn:

• Understand the difference between federated and monolithic CAD models, and why federation is essential for large-scale rail projects.
• Discover strategies for integrating track, bridge, tunnel, station, and utility models into a single coordinated 3D environment.
• Explore performance optimization techniques including level filters, display rules, and selective model loading for working with large datasets.
