Site Rendering with Civil 3D, Infraworks, & Twinmotion

This session is for engineers who want to leverage different tools already available in the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering, and Construction Collection to create a polished 3D rendering of their designs with minimum effort and investment.

Challenges we’ll address:

• Traditional concept plans, and 2D renderings can be difficult for stakeholders to visualize what a project will look like when complete

• 3D rendering is expensive and time consuming

Session Outcomes:

• Leverage conceptual design elements from traditional CAD tools, such as Civil 3D, to generate 3D models for rendering

• Quickly add context to your model with Infraworks, FormIT, and other AEC Collection resources

• Render and polish your design with Twinmotion, to create assets that visually sell your project to clients and project stakeholders

Traditional 2D concept plans and renderings, while valuable, don’t always provide a clear vision of what a finished project will actually look like. 3D renderings can fill that gap and provide a much more complete picture but can sometimes be difficult and costly to create.

This session will show you how to leverage the design assets you already have to create a polished 3D rendering including animated assets like vehicles and people, to generate clear and compelling presentation assets with minimum effort and investment.

Key Topics:

• Take the design information from your Civil 3D design into a format for rendering

• Aggregate design elements from multiple sources into a cohesive model using Infraworks

• Leverage Twinmotion to render and add animation to the model

• Create presentation assets to help sell a project to your client, municipal reviewers, or the public
