Create parametric bridge parts in Inventor


Module overview

Creating editable parameters in Inventor makes it easy to modify the customer bridge components inside InfraWorks. In this module, you learn how to develop sketches using parameters with meaningful names and relationships that will make it easy for Infraworks users to tailor the Girder to their needs.
 
This module takes approximately 30 minutes to complete. By the end of the module, you should be able to:
  • Place geometric relationships on sketch elements to keep them connected
  • Create parameters while applying dimensions to the sketch
  • Import parameters from a spreadsheet for speed and consistency
  • Export the part for InfraWorks
