DESCRIPTION

Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) unifies Autodesk Docs, BIM Collaborate/Pro, Autodesk Build, and Autodesk Takeoff in a common data environment for the AEC industry. In this course, you learn to configure projects, manage permissions and document control, collaborate on Revit models in the cloud, coordinate multidisciplinary models, and manage field workflows including issues, RFIs, submittals, checklists, and cost tracking.

OBJECTIVES

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

1. Set up Autodesk Docs projects, folders, roles, and granular permissions
2. Upload and manage files (Revit, DWG, PDFs, Office) via web and Autodesk Desktop Connector
3. Configure reviews, transmittals, versioning, compare and approval workflows
4. Use BIM Collaborate Pro for Revit Cloud Worksharing & Design Collaboration (teams, packages, consumed/shared data)
5. Run Model Coordination (automated clash, views, assignments, issue tracking)
6. Work in Autodesk Build: Issues, RFIs, Submittals, Forms (checklists), Daily Logs, Assets
7. Track Cost Management basics (budgets, contracts, change orders)
8. Create quantities in Autodesk Takeoff (2D/3D takeoff, classifications, exports)
9. Use the ACC mobile app for site workflows and offline sync
10. Connect to Insights & Reports for dashboards and analytics
11. Understand data governance, file naming, and project templates
12. Interoperate with Civil 3D, Navisworks, and CAD files
