ACEC Suggested Topics for Discussion • Practical Tips for Better Use • Pull down menus • How ODOT implements • What do Contractors have to do, specifically • Where are their choices • Plan Sheets
Ambiguous Topics for Discussion • Practical Tips for Better Use • Pull down menus • How ODOT implements • What do Contractors have to do, specifically • Where are their choices • Plan Sheets
Practical Tips for Better Use • New MDL – SScloud • Places a defined cloud around an area. • InRoads .ini’s • Some are not set to ODOT’s standards, or perhaps I should say some are. • InRoads Standards committee/CAD Standards Committee. • Seed Files
InRoads Standards committee • Working on configuring InRoads to conform as close as possible to the CAD Standards • In Planning, a manual similar to the Contract Plans Development Guide, for InRoads.
CAD Standards Committee • Manage change to ODOT’s CAD Standards • Review existing standard for errors and omissions
Seed Files • MicroStation Seed Files • C:\Program Files\odot_space\Standards\seed • InRoads Seed files • C:\Program Files\odot_space\ENG_APP\InRoads
Pull down menus • Navigation of the menus • If missing menus what to do • If inconsistencies what to do • Order Of Precedence • Plan Menus • Quick Guide • CPDG and other manuals/guides • When all else fails, e-mail or call.
How ODOT implements • Changes to ODOT Workspace • Internally we update once per month if there are any changes. • As ODOT moves to using By-Level Symbology, the symbology will change with the workspace. • Changes do not need to be incorporated into projects in advanced stages, unless specifically noted. • Example, Highway Engineer Stamp on Title Sheet.
Changes to ODOT Workspace • ODOT maintains an incomplete list of consultants using our workspace. • If your firm uses the workspace, but doesn’t get announcements of updates, please e-mail me • If your firm gets the announcement, but to the wrong person, please e-mail me
What do Contractors have to do, specifically • Define the 305 spec in relation to MicroStation/InRoads deliverables. • Talk about SP 305. • SP 305 will be re-written. • Inroads Standards • TC Names
Where are their choices • Contract Plans Development Guide • Bridge • Traffic • GeoEnvironmental • Geotech • Hydraulics • Roadside Development • Environmental • Etc.
Plan Sheets • CPDG • What makes a Quality Deliverable? • Consistency. • Follow CPDG • Use ODOT WorkSpace
