We recently highlighted some of the many AutoCAD sessions available to register in-person at AU 2024. If you’re still looking to fill your schedule, here are more recommendations to make the most of your time in San Diego!
Design Changes Using Trace, Markup Import, and Markup Assist in AutoCAD 2025
Tuesday, October 15: 4:30 PM – 5:30 PM PDT
AutoCAD users spend most of their time drafting based on markups and incorporating revision changes. This session with Volker Cocco will show you how to automate workflows and decrease the time spent on design changes using Trace, Markup Import, and Markup Assist in AutoCAD. Whether design changes are made in the field, at the office, or remotely, these tools will increase your efficiency and improve collaboration on markups and revisions.
Autodesk AI: AutoCAD Smart Blocks and Markup Import & Assist
Tuesday, October 15: 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM PDT
Join Autodesk’s Anum Mithani and Anand Rajagopal to learn about AutoCAD software’s AI features that make your drafting more efficient than ever: Smart Blocks, Markup Import, and Markup Assist.
Enabling a Connected Design Experience with AutoCAD Web and Mobile Apps
Thursday, October 17: 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM PDT
AutoCAD web and mobile apps redefine the design experience by providing an integrated, connected ecosystem for design and collaboration. This session with Sachin Singh, Wenqian Yan, and Tedman Martinez from the AutoCAD team will demonstrate how AutoCAD web and mobile apps can revolutionize the way we work on DWG files and the collaborative features of AutoCAD web and mobile apps.
Empowering Renewable Energy: Using Autodesk Tools to Drive Value and Overcome Industry Challenges
Thursday, October 17: 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM PDT
AutoCAD files are critical in the renewable energy market, providing the precision needed, especially with the shift toward 3D designs for energy yield modeling. Well-optimized and structured preconstruction stage designs in AutoCAD can make or break a potential project’s funding and eventual construction, thus driving customer value. This panel will explore how Autodesk software can empower customers to unlock the renewable energy sector’s potential, overcome bottlenecks, and mitigate risks.
Enhancing AutoCAD Plant 3D: How Autodesk’s Custom Plug-in Transformed Artelia’s Design Process
Wednesday, October 16, 8:00 AM – 9:00 AM PDT
French engineering firm Artelia faced a challenge in generating secondary supports assembly drawings from AutoCAD Plant 3D software. Discover how Autodesk Consulting developed a new AutoCAD Plant 3D plug-in, leading to a 75% time reduction across Artelia projects, potentially saving approximately 208 days in the first year alone.
Skill Shift: New Approaches for a Resilient Workforce
Thursday, October 17: 1:30 PM – 2:30 PM PDT
Our built world is responsible for more than 40% of annual greenhouse gas emissions globally, including both embodied and operational carbon. Technology is being developed to reduce this impact—often faster than it can be implemented. Explore how we can adapt the construction processes and the products we use to meet the architectural needs of a growing global population in a way that’s better for people and the planet.
