OpenRoads Designer I

MicroStation is built into OpenRoads and MicroStation I (or a basic working knowledge) is a prerequisite to this course. This course guides you through an OpenRoads Designer (ORD) roadway workflow using terrain models, civil geometry, dynamic profiles, creating templates, corridor modeling, dynamic sections, volumes, plottable sections, plan and profile creation as well as proposed terrain model creation. The drafting portion of the software is covered in MicroStation I.

Description
MicroStation is built into OpenRoads and MicroStation I (or a basic working knowledge) is a prerequisite to this course.  This training course guides you through an OpenRoads Designer (ORD) roadway workflow using terrain models, civil geometry, dynamic profiles, creating templates, corridor modeling, dynamic sections, volumes, plottable sections, plan and profile creation as well as proposed terrain model creation.   The drafting portion of the software is covered in MicroStation I.

Target Audience
Civil Engineers and Designers who want to apply OpenRoads Designer to corridor-type projects.

Prerequisites

To be successful, students should already know the basics of MicroStation (or ORD drafting), which are not covered in this training class. A familiarity with Civil terms and concepts is also a must (i.e. alignments, cross sections, profiles).

This 2-day course exposes students to the entire workflow for using OpenRoads Designer (ORD) Survey. Students import data from a number of sources, reduce it to coordinates, display the results and correct coding errors. The data is then used to generate reports for uploading, terrains for design and graphics for planimetrics. This course is recommended for surveyors and others who will use ORD Survey for the office-side of preparing survey data to pass on to designers.

More Information

This course is designed for civil engineers and designers who currently use OpenRoads Designer (ORD) for design and evaluation of highway or other corridor projects. It goes above and beyond the basic ORD course to enhance the students’ productivity and troubleshooting skills with the software in the topics listed below, with a primary focus on corridors and the creation of 3D models.
