SUMMARY:Construction Estimating
DESCRIPTION:This class will help the student to develop the necessary fundamental knowledge of the procedures\, materials\, equipment\, and practices needed when estimating for any trade discipline and/or type of construction. The class will also provide the fundamental knowledge of construction materials & processes that utilize these materials. One trade discipline and material category\, process and system is covered each week. These materials and processes are normally encountered by the student in the workplace. \nThis class provides a starting point for developing the mathematical skills necessary through practice and application to the construction trade. Calculations and quantities of volumes and areas will include trades such as concrete\, masonry and carpentry as well as others. \nThe class will provide hands-on detailed estimating procedures in which students learn how to estimate the general conditions of a construction project\, site work\, excavation\, concrete and masonry as well as other trade disciplines. This course also features hands-on estimating and quantity take off activities associated with Metals\, Wood\, Doors and Windows and Finishes as well as other types of materials. \n  \nThis Class will run every Thursday Evening beginning on September 15\, 2022 – November 3\, 2021

SUMMARY:Autodesk Revit Exploring the Essentials
DESCRIPTION:$325 per person | 8 CPC/CEU credits \nThe design world has made the shift to BIM\, and working in 3D systems like Autodesk Revit is vital to every firm’s growth\, and every designer’s career. The problem is\, that many folks have been thrown into the Revit world with no more than a quick overview\, and in many cases a “figure it out as you go” directive from above.

From initial project setup\, through basic views\, annotations\, and working with linked Models this class is a must for every Revit user out there. This class will help you\, and your firm\, comfortably make the move from out-of-date 2D CAD work to the world of 3D BIM in Revit\, making you confident in your understanding and capabilities. \nThis eight (8) hour course is delivered in four (4)\, two-hour long sessions that students can attend online\, right from their own desk. A live instructor will explain the detailed functions\, and address questions as the class progresses. \nNote: Instructor will present using Autodesk Revit 2022. Students who wish to follow along with instructor are encouraged to use the same version. \nRecording: Registrants for this course will receive access to a recording of each session for 48 consecutive hours. Access will start the next business day after the session ends. \nMust attend all four sessions. \nSession 1: Understanding the Basics \n\nStarting a Project\nUnderstanding the User Interface\nView Controls\nLevels and Grids\nCreating Views – Sections & Elevations\n\nSession 2: File Linking and Visibility Graphics \n\nUnderstanding Linked Models\nObject Styles and Visibility Graphics\nDetail Levels\nView Range\nView Templates\n\nSession 3: Model Objects \n\nParameter Types\nCreating System Families\nLoading Component Families\nModify Tools\n\nSession 4: Annotations & Schedules \n\nCreating Detail & Drafting Views\nText Annotation\nDimensions\nTags and Schedules\nCreating Sheets
