Featured LEARNing: Bentley's Virtual Classroom, February 2-6, 2015

The following virtual classroom courses for Road & Site Design are scheduled the week of February 2-6, 2015. Visit Bentley's LEARNing events listing for course details and registration or to see more of what's upcoming in the weeks ahead.

Live training in a virtual classroom setting complements on-demand video course lectures.  You'll work with practical, hands-on exercises and real-world datasets while interacting live with Bentley experts. 

QuickStart for Terrain & Geometry Using OpenRoads Technology
02 February 2015 – 09:00 EST (United States)
Instructor: Alan Mather

This course is for both new users and users upgrading from previous versions of PowerCivil, Power GEOPAK, MX, and Power InRoads software to use the OpenRoads Technology in SELECTseries 3. You will learn to use the software to setup working files, attach existing ground terrain and aerial imagery, and define horizontal and vertical geometry. After completing this course we recommend you continue your learning with the QuickStart for Roadway Modeling Using OpenRoads course where you will learn how to model a roadway corridor and intersection.

Creating and Annotating Cross Sections
02 February 2015 – 13:00 EST (United States)
Instructor: Jeffrey Martin

This class teaches how cross section sheets are created and annotated, earthwork volumes are computed, and mass haul diagrams are formulated.


Modeling a Superelevated Divided Highway with a Wall
02 February 2015 – 16:00 EST (United States)
Instructor: Jeffrey Martin

Model a divided highway with superelevation in a corridor and model a wall using linear templates. Integrate the wall model into the corridor model.


QuickStart for Roadway Modeling Using OpenRoads Technology
03 February 2015 – 09:00 EST (United States)
Instructor: Alan Mather

This course is for both new users and users upgrading from previous versions of PowerCivil, Power GEOPAK, MX, and Power InRoads software to use the OpenRoads Technology in SELECTseries 3. You will learn to model the roadway corridor using an existing 2 lane urban typical section with curb and cutter and sidewalk, control the pavement with geometry, and review the 3D corridor model. You will also model a T intersection complete with curb returns and side slopes using a civil cell. Finally, you will place pavement markings on the model. Before completing this course we recommend you complete the QuickStart for Terrain & Geometry Using OpenRoads course.
