USACE CAD Tasks & Templates

This document is intended to provide step-by-step instructions to implement the US Army Corps

of Engineers CAD Tasks and Templates with the Tri-Services 09Q4b_V8i Bentley Workspace. This

implementation should be carried out by a CAD Manager with knowledge of Microstation management

and workspaces.

These CAD Tasks and Templates were created by/for the US Army Corps of Engineers and are an

introduction to new technology in MicroStation V8i SELECTSeries. These Tasks and Templates are to

replace the old NetSpecs toolbars along with Settings Manager resources and will offer all the functionality

that Settings Manager did and more.

The MicroStation Tasks are collections of similar tool groups organized using MicroStations Task BasedInterface. The tools in the USACE Customized CAD Tasks are linked to MicroStation Element Templates,

which behavior similar to the old Settings Manager. The Element Templates linked to individual tools of

the the customized Tasks will automatically set the proper symbology (Level, Color, Weight, Line Style,

Cell, Scale, etc) for the selected tool to be compliant with the AEC CAD Standard. The various Task sets can

be accessed from the USACOE Tasks menu that has been added to the standard MicroStation menus.
