HHPR

MicroStation and InRoads Training

The following tutorials result from a series of desired learning outcomes provided CAD Productivity by HHPR. They have been arranged in the sequence that would be followed in an instructor-led training class, but each can be viewed independently. Each section contains related videos so it is recommended to watch each in order, but if you would like to see a cross reference to each video from the initial questions, click here.

For some of the videos, there is a written lab activity. If you would like to practice using these labs, download the data files here. This is a zip file containing the data files and an Exercises subfolder containing PDFs with the video or section in the title. These labs are pulled from different CAD Productivity courses, so the folder structures will differ. When you are working in the activities and it calls for loading a file, always look in the folder where you installed these files rather than the folder listed in the PDF.
