685 Autodesk has launched a specialist training and certification package for civil engineers to bring them up to speed on modem BIM (information modelling) workflows. The Autodesk Official Training Guide, is not just teaching the functionality of the programs says the company, but aims to show how the Autodesk infrastructure software workflows "can help owners and service providers on roads and highways improve productivity, optimise designs, and accelerate project approvals." The course simulates a roadways project from planning and design through visual communication and construction documentation using an integrated BIM workflow using the latest 3282 AutoCAD Civil 3D, Autodesk InfraWorks, Autodesk InfraWorks 360, and Autodesk Navisworks Manage software. The Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite 2014: BIM Workflow for Roads and Highways guide is available in hard copy or eBook format by online purchase from Ascent publishing (%$Linker: 2External<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><dictionary />000oLinkExternalwww.ASCENTed.comwww.ASCENTed.comfalsehttp://www.ascented.com/falsefalse%>).
Bauma will be the platform for Soilmec’s next generation of hydraulic drilling rigs for large diameter piles and smaller drilling rigs for micropiles and anchoring. The new rigs have been designed by the ground engineering specialist to improve productivity and operating flexibility and are installed with tier 3 and 4 diesel engines. Powerful and lightweight rotaries have allowed torque levels to increase by up to 20% and the units use high-strength steels. To further improve safety and efficiency, they als
Finnish company Tamtron is launching its self-developed and self-manufactured Power wheeled loader scale with ”the first full-colour touch screen in a wheeled loader scale.” Said to be as easy to use as a smartphone, the Tamtron Power scale offers many key features including three weighing modes in one scale (standard scale for basic weighing, memo weighing for professional users, and stock control weighing); weigh while lowering the boom meaning no more weigh and subtract lifts; zeroing only once an hour n
It’s been a decade since South Korea’s capital city Seoul took the bold step of replacing a major urban throughway with a park, complete with a river, to create the Cheonggyecheon Walkway. Now, Seoul is getting ready to host the 25th World Road Congress from November 2-5. The event is being produced in cooperation with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport of the Republic of Korea, the Korea Expressway Corporation, the Korea Road & Transportation Association and the PIARC Korean National Commit
Atlas Copco launched five new products for underground construction and mining applications at bauma.
The new series of Boomer E rigs features the COP 4038 and the new COP 1800+ series. Both product lines include a new rig control system as well as a new version of Atlas Copco´s Advanced Underground Manager system. This much-improved user interface takes planning and evaluation to the next level in performance and efficiency.
