The Course
This course is designed for employees of the Municipality of Amsterdam who have little to no experience working with CAD software. During this course, you will become thoroughly acquainted with the MicroStation Connect version. Over three days, you will engage in various exercises and master the 2D functions of the software.
Day 1: Introduction to MicroStation
The first day lays the foundation for working with MicroStation. The instructor will introduce participants to the interface and the various mouse functions of the program. Following this, work will begin with Accudraw. Under the instructor’s guidance, participants will complete several exercises, taking their first steps in drawing with MicroStation.
Day 2: Developing CAD Drawing Skills
The skills acquired on the first day will be further developed on the second day, which focuses entirely on CAD drawing. Participants will complete numerous exercises to refine their skills. The day includes working with various snapping and drawing functions and learning how to modify and manipulate elements in the drawing. Attention will also be given to layers and hatching.
