[APRIL 2018]

WHAT ABOUT IT INFRASTRUCTURE?
ISP – Access protocols – LAN prioritization
[14]
[APRIL 2018]

[15]
WHAT ABOUT IT INFRASTRUCTURE?
▪ What types of internet facilities can I have?
▪ Which internet service provider for my business?
▪ Who internally to adjust ports and proxies?
Important points to match: ISP, Access protocols, LAN prioritization.
[APRIL 2018]

OLE PROCESS WITH AUTODESK FUSION360
NEW ELECTRIFICATION – HSL V350 STI REGULARIZED
[16]
[APRIL 2018]

[17]
▪ Case n°1 : no input coming from a previous project,
▪ Case n°2 : you already have Inventor or Revit
components.
Preparation step: bring BIM families coming from Inventor Professional to Fusion360.
Here, rail sections (60E1, 50E6, etc.) and wood sleepers.
Two ways of work:
Solutions:
▪ Case n°1: start directly the model-authoring with
Fusion360,
▪ Case n°2: import external components in Fusion360,
paying attention with Inventor family's workflow.
[APRIL 2018]

[18]
▪ Carried out by plane,
▪ Altimetry: 1500m above the ground,
▪ Accuracy: around 5cm on the mesh definition.
Preparation step: create existing terrain with Autodesk Civil 3D (TIN Surface).
Input data: photogrammetric survey.
TIN Surface definition using the topographic
points coming from the input.
The result is a triangulated object surface, not
only a simple conglomeration of 3D faces.
[APRIL 2018]

[19]
▪ Define centerline alignment,
▪ Existing Ground (EG) vertical profile creation,
▪ Define Project Ground line (PG),
▪ Subassemblies creation (SAC),
▪ Corridor model-authoring.
Preparation step: corridor model-authoring.
[APRIL 2018]

[20]
▪ The subassemblies I would use are not mandatory available in
the default Autodesk Civil 3D library,
▪ Content customization using the .pkt file format,
▪ Codification of structure lines and shapes,
▪ Define conditional connection through EG (daylight),
▪ Import subassemblies in Autodesk Civil 3D.
Preparation step: customization with Subassembly Composer.
[APRIL 2018]

[21]
Preparation step: corridor model-authoring.
[APRIL 2018]

[22]
▪ No native workflow possible between Autodesk
Civil 3D and Fusion360,
▪ Fusion360 does not recognize LandXML or IMX,
▪ However, it knows how to import meshes,
▪ And currently manages STL and OBJ file formats,
▪ Here we will use a LISP conversion file.
Step n°1: Autodesk Civil 3D corridor import, model sizes and accuracy.

[APRIL 2018]

[23]
▪ Fusion360 recognizes the mesh (.obj file format),
▪ Keep object georeferencing (coordinates),
▪ Free and usable by anyone.
LISP advantages:
▪ If the TIN Surface is too large or huge, there is an
automatic splitting into several .obj files,
▪ Mandatory to explode the TIN Surface in 3D faces.
LISP disadvantages:
[APRIL 2018]

[24]
➢ Model space (+/- 100m
from the origin),
➢ Maximum distance
between two points:
1000m.
Reminder about Autodesk Shape Manager (ASM) physical limitations.
▪ ASM: it is the common kernel on which are based Autodesk
Fusion360 and Inventor Professional engines,
▪ Out of the physical limitations: creation of instabilities.
[APRIL 2018]

[25]
▪ On the left: in the ASM comfort box,
▪ On the right: out of the ASM comfort box (unstable).
For the same .obj mesh produced by the LISP:
[APRIL 2018]

[26]
▪ AEC traditional software: X/Y sketch then Z extrusion,
▪ Here with PDM approach: X/Z sketch then Y extrusion.
Beware of the mechanical conventions and default orientations of Fusion360!
[APRIL 2018]

[27]
▪ Import a .dwg file directly,
▪ Convert a .pdf into .svg file format and
insert it,
▪ Insert an image (traditionally .tiff file
format with SNCF) as Canvas picture.
The are several solutions:
Step n°2: Permanent-way layout redesigning and OLE layout.
[APRIL 2018]

[28]
▪ Files must be cleaned, purged and not corrupted,
▪ Only constituted by traditional AutoCAD elements,
▪ Ban all kind of objects coming from executables,
routines or “internal” developments,
▪ For a better compatibility, think before to offer a second
life to your old traditional CAD plans.
Pay attention of .dwg file transcriptions by Collaborative
Data Environment platforms BIM360 and FusionTeam!
Step n°2: Permanent-way layout redesigning and OLE layout.
[APRIL 2018]

[29]
▪ Initial model-authoring process with Fusion360,
▪ Management, sharing and collaboration with FusionTeam,
▪ Maintenance and BIM monitoring with Fusion LifeCycle.
Step n°3: BIM OLE object library creation.
[APRIL 2018]

[30]
▪ Data download,
▪ Edit archive with desktop app (.exe),
▪ Edit in the browser (webOS),
▪ Copy, move, delete,
▪ Share.
Administrator panel (cloud) :
[APRIL 2018]

[31]
[APRIL 2018]

[32]
▪ Online modification with internet browser,
▪ No need to have the executable on your HDD,
▪ When traveling on client premise, or on site,
▪ Existence of a Fusion360 version for iOS.

[APRIL 2018]

[35]
Tip: pay attention to the remarks entered in the save fields! Avoid standard “User Saved” for trackability.
[APRIL 2018]

[36]
▪ Joint (traditional assembly),
▪ As-built Joint (as you geometrically
defined it).
Two important functions:
Step n°4: OLE pole assemblies.
Keep in mind the Fusion archive file formats .f3d and .f3z!
▪ Rigid Group (sub-assemblies),
▪ Motion Link (relative assemblies).
Two secondary functions:
[APRIL 2018]

[37]
▪ Rigid,
▪ Revolute,
▪ Slider,
▪ Cylindrical,
▪ Pin-slot,
▪ Planar,
▪ Ball.
Several kind of assemblies (joints) :
Do not hesitate to use several sub-assemblies for cross-section construction schema.
[APRIL 2018]

[38]
▪ You have a constrained sub-assembly,
▪ Rigidize it once inserted into the global assembly! If
not, the entities will lose their mutual constraints.
Rigid Group:
Tip: use Rigid Group and Do not capture Design History functions.
Do not capture Design History: vanishes the
design tree to improve performance.
[APRIL 2018]

[39]
Tip: use Comparison function for monitoring and trackability with Fusion Team.
[APRIL 2018]

[40]
▪ Several modelers working on the library,
▪ Several stakeholders working on FusionTeam,
▪ A modification of one of the components?
▪ Automatically identified by Fusion360,
▪ Appearance of a yellow alert signal,
▪ Refresh the assembly.
Cloud collaborative advantage: direct modifications.
[APRIL 2018]

[41]
▪ Create a sleeper and track structure,
▪ Possible to integrate or not a rail template as
here,
▪ Sleepers duplication with Rectangular Pattern
and Path Pattern functions.
The method is ideal to automatize sleeper spacing
through a linear alignment or a constant radius
curve.
No transcription possible yet in the case of a spiral
connection.
Step n°5: permanent-way insertion.
[APRIL 2018]

[42]
MacOS release (iMac)
iOS App (iPhone)
[APRIL 2018]

[43]
▪ Glass,
▪ Leather and cloth,
▪ Metal,
▪ Other,
▪ Paint,
▪ Plastic,
▪ Wood.
Several appearance choices:
Rendering module.
[APRIL 2018]

[44]
▪ Difficult operation to set up without creating
an API (Dynamo4Civil not released in 2018),
▪ Compliance with normative tables and
standards,
▪ Possibility of carrying them out,
▪ Avoid making them adaptative dynamically.
Step n°6: droppers model-authoring.
[APRIL 2018]

[45]
▪ Create a part template for the contact wire, one for the support wire, one for the contact half-clamps
and the last one for the support wire hanger.
▪ Reduce the level of detail of these models (except for the contact wire),
▪ Define 3D splines on two points (ends of support wire),
▪ Add a central point and define the sag (support wire),
▪ Assemble droppers.
Tip: insert standard part templates and work in parametric for the spans.
[APRIL 2018]

[46]
[APRIL 2018]

[47]
Step n°7: rendering module, data and presentation/plotting.
RENDER module.
[APRIL 2018]

[48]
Do not be confused about Appearance and Physical Material functions.
[APRIL 2018]

[49]
Query the components and extract the information.
[APRIL 2018]

[50]
SIMULATION and CAM modules.
[APRIL 2018]

[51]
Fusion360 also directly manages 3D printing if you have a FabLab.
Sheet layout and plotting.

[52]
▪ Fix/UnFix function which will block geometrical elements in the current sketch if the latter is not fully
constrained,
▪ Normal/Construction function which will create construction geometries in a sketch (axes, projection
lines, boundaries, etc.). Note that a geometric element in construction lines does not allow the software to
recognize a closed boundary,
▪ Project / Include function group allows you to bring projections of points, edges or faces of an object on
another sketch in progress (equivalent to the Project Geometry function of Inventor Professional),
▪ Rigid Group function allows components to be joined together when a sub-assembly is inserted into a
global assembly,
▪ The Attached Canvas function will allow you to insert an image on a plan and redraw over it if necessary.
Important functions to keep in mind throughout model-authoring process (1/2):

[53]
▪ The As-built Joint function makes it possible to assemble components as they were manually positioned in
space (and maintain their current position),
▪ The Joint function will allow you to create the components’ assembly, offering you targeted points in
advance (same as on Inventor Professional),
▪ The Motion Link function will allow you to make a correspondence between two joints (assemblies). For
example, it’s the principle of alternate/internal angles when I rotate my cantilever (angular constraint) and I
want to keep a perfectly horizontal tube whatever happens,
▪ The Do not capture Design History function will allow you to freeze the design tree to improve
performance and not slow down the machine performance. Please find below the result before and after,
▪ The Physical Material function allows you to change the intrinsic characteristics of the material while the
Appearance function only changes its visualization aspect (rendering).
Important functions to keep in mind throughout model-authoring process (2/2):

BIM OLE FOR MONITORING WORKS
FUSION LIFECYCLE
[54]
[APRIL 2018]

[55]
▪ Current classifications in simple text format, at the best
case in CAD attributes,
▪ Still often omissions or errors in the reference principle
plans, markers and symbols.
OLE operators need to be able to transcribe the information
coming from the cross-section books.
Objective of BIM for monitoring works:
▪ Automatically federate the OLE deliverables (principle
plans, layouts, cross-section books, electrification
diagrams),
▪ Extract and know how to manage the Bill-of-Materials
(BOMs) on a collaborative cloud platform.

[56]
A common lifecycle platform: FUSION LIFECYCLE.
Features on a PLM approach:
▪ Introduction of new products,
▪ Projects breakdown into tasks and sub-tasks,
▪ Track progress.

[57]
▪ Gantt chart (4D),
▪ Bill of Materials (BOM): extraction of the nomenclature
and details of the modified, removed or added
components.
[APRIL 2018]

[58]
▪ Approval of infrastructure changes,
▪ Ensure the quality and conformity of the work thanks to
monitoring on tablets,
▪ Management of mandated companies and their
subcontractors.

* Nota:
▪ The Live Review function is based on a joint use of Revit,
Revit Live and 3DS Max Interactive,
▪ Check if a Fusion360 – Inventor Professional export in
Autodesk Exchange (.adsk) can generate VR if it is
transferred to a Revit or NavisWorks model.
[APRIL 2018]

[63]
FBX file format:
▪ Developed in 1996 under the name Filmbox,
▪ Mainly used in the M&E collection by 3DS Max
users,
▪ Must strongly evolve in the future with the
convergence of collections.
❖ Today, it describes a movement as animation for 3DS Max,
❖ Tomorrow, could he keep the limits and movements allowed in Fusion360 assemblies?
[APRIL 2018]

OOP
Object Oriented Programming
[64]
[APRIL 2018]

[65]
OBJECT ORIENTED PROGRAMMING
❖ Before: we programmed flow to input data which was converted into output data,
❖ Now: the objective will be to define the object data to manipulate in your studies.
Object-Oriented Programming differs from traditional programming, which involved processing data
according to a series of logical procedures.
▪ Software published in raw form and requiring the incrementation of "additional bricks",
▪ Fluent code practice for users (development),
▪ Langages: C#, VB.Net, Objective C, Python, Ruby, C++, Java, etc.,
▪ Fusion360: presence of a TEXT COMMANDS dialog box (based on Python language).
What changes for me as a user?
[APRIL 2018]

CONCLUSION
BIM Infrastructure
[66]
[APRIL 2018]

[67]
CONCLUSION
BIM: three letters B-I-M for Building Information Modeling.
▪ Information,
▪ Intelligence (object),
▪ Interaction.
Highlighted:
Feedback from the 2018 ‘Les Sommets du Digital’ exhibition related to digital business transitions.

[APRIL 2018]

[68]
CONCLUSION
[APRIL 2018]
“The data is not a stock but a fluid.”
“Digital transformation is data, data and data!”
“New paradigm: everything that served yesterday will be
useless tomorrow.”

[69]
CONCLUSION
[APRIL 2018]
“The platforms have created new expectations for consumers
and are becoming the norm.”
“The management of excellence is over. The manager must
take risks!”
“Today, the school must learn to learn so that everyone can
adapt to future environments.”
