Autodesk® Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection is software for creating 3D building designs and infrastructure designs for transportation, land, utility, and water projects. It supports building information modeling (BIM) and computer-aided design (CAD) workflows.
This donation provides a one-year subscription to the Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection for one user to install and run the software on a single computer and 25 GB of A360 cloud storage. This collection includes AutoCAD®, Revit®, Navisworks Manage®, and other applications. See a full list of software included with this suite.
The Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) Collection is a comprehensive suite of software tools tailored for professionals in architecture, engineering, and construction industries. As of mid-2024, the collection typically includes a range of software solutions aimed at enhancing design, visualization, collaboration, and project management across various disciplines. Here are some key features you might find in the latest version of the AEC Collection:
1. Autodesk Revit: Advanced BIM (Building Information Modeling) software for architectural design, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) engineering, and structural engineering. Includes tools for 3D modeling, documentation, and collaboration.
2. AutoCAD: Industry-standard CAD software for 2D drafting, detailing, and 3D modeling. Often includes specialized toolsets for architecture, MEP, and structural engineering tasks.
3. AutoCAD Civil 3D: Design and documentation software for civil engineering and infrastructure projects. Includes tools for roadway design, land development, and geospatial analysis.
4. Navisworks Manage: Project review software for 3D coordination, model simulation, and clash detection. Facilitates coordination between multidisciplinary teams and integrates with BIM workflows.
5. AutoCAD Architecture: Specialized version of AutoCAD for architectural drafting and documentation. Includes features like wall, door, and window design tools.
6. InfraWorks: Planning and design software for infrastructure projects, such as roads, highways, and bridges. Enables preliminary design, visualization, and simulation of large-scale projects.
7. Advance Steel: 3D modeling software for structural steel detailing and fabrication. Supports BIM workflows for steel detailing, documentation, and collaboration.
8. Robot Structural Analysis Professional: Structural analysis software for advanced structural analysis and simulation of buildings and bridges. Integrates with BIM workflows for improved design and analysis.
9. Revit Live: Real-time visualization and virtual reality (VR) software for Revit models. Enables stakeholders to experience designs in immersive virtual environments.
10. Cloud Services: Access to Autodesk cloud services such as BIM 360, which includes document management, collaboration tools, and project insights for improved project coordination and management.
11. Additional Tools and Resources: Depending on the specific offerings and updates, the AEC Collection may include additional software tools, updates, and resources to enhance productivity and collaboration across the AEC industries.
