REVIT_Naviswork_Project- 4

1. Use the Architecture/ Structure Project file developed by you in Week 6 to 8. Export the Revit architecture and structure model to Navisworks Cache file following the export settings discussed in class.

A: AIM: To Use the Architecture/ Structure Project file developed to export the Revit architecture and structure model to Navisworks Cache file.

TOOLS REQUIRED:

• File option
• Export
• NWC

PROCEDURE:

• Open architectural project file from week 7.
• Change it to 3D view.
• Now click on file tab and select export.
• In export click on NWC so that the file will be exported to NWC format.
• 
• Now open structural file and do the same.
• So that the structural file will also be exported to NWC format.
• 

RESULT:

Both structural and architectural project files are exported to Navisworks Cache (NWC) file.

2. Use Navigate Tool to walk around the model and walk through the rooms created and record your moving as animation in your Navisworks file.

A: AIM: To use Navigate Tool to walk around the model and walk through the rooms created and to record moving as animation in Navisworks file.

TOOLS REQUIRED:

• NWC
• View point
• Walk
• Record
• Stop

PROCEDURE:

• Open architectural file which is exported to NWC in Navisworks.
• Click on view point and select view.
• 
• Now select record option in view point.
• 
• And then click on walk and walk through the created rooms.
• 
• After it is completed click on stop.
• 
• 
• 
• 

RESULT:

The walk around model and through the rooms is created and recorded using navigate tool.

3. Use Navigate tool to use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in Navisworks file.

A: AIM: To use Navigate tool to Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in Navisworks file.

TOOLS REQUIRED:

• Navisworks file
• View point
• Realism
• Walk
• Stop

PROCEDURE:

• Open architectural project file in Navisworks file.
• Click on view point and select view.
• 
• Now click on realism and select third person.
• And then click on walk and record.
• 
• Start walking in rooms and after completion click on stop.
• 
• 
• 
• 

RESULT:

Walk through the model and moving is recorded as animation in Navisworks file is done using navigate tool.

4. Embed both architecture and structure *.nwc file to your Navisworks file. Create a clash detection test between the two models
   Run the Clash Detection Test
   b. Study the clashes between the two models
   c. List which of the clashes could be approved
   d. List which of the clashes could be neglected ( will be taken care later)
   e. List which of the clashes can be resolved
   f. Save the results after color coding the clashes to the Navisworks file
   g. In case of resolution annotate the clash and save the view to defined views in Navisworks

A: AIM: To embed both architecture and structure NWC file to Navisworks file. And to create a clash detection test between the two models.
a. Run the Clash Detection Test
b. Study the clashes between the two models
c. List which of the clashes could be approved
d. List which of the clashes could be neglected (will be taken care later)
e. List which of the clashes can be resolved
f. Save the results after color coding the clashes to the Navisworks file
g. In case of resolution annotate the clash and save the view to defined views in Navisworks

TOOLS REQUIRED:

• Open
• Append
• Clash detective
• Run test

PROCEDURE:

• Open architectural project file in Navisworks.
• In home tab click on append.
• 
• 
• Select structural model in order to find clashes between the both models.
• Now click on clash detective option and select new test.
• Name the test as architectural vs structural.
• 
• Now select the surface for both architectural and structural files.
• And then click on run test.
• After the clash detection is done study the clashes formed.
• List the clashes which are to be solved later.
• Also list the clashes that are resolved.
• 
• 
• Now save the file with a name after color coding is done.
• 
• 
• 
• 

RESULT:

Clashes are detected. All resolved, approved and neglected clashes are listed. And then the Navisworks file is saved.

5. Using the TimeLiner feature in Navisworks prepare a schedule for the project developed in week 6 to 8 by adding reasonable assumptions for task start date and end date and simulate the task completion as a visual simulation. Record it and save the timeline simulation to Navisworks file.

A: AIM: To use the TimeLiner feature in Navisworks to prepare a schedule for the project by adding reasonable assumptions for task start date and end date and to simulate the task completion as a visual simulation.

TOOLS REQUIRED:

• TimeLiner
• Add task
• Attach the materials

PROCEDURE:

• Open the structural project file in Navisworks.
• Now click on TimeLiner option.
• 
• 
• Add tasks and by clicking on selection tree attach the materials.
• In the tasks insert the planned start date and end dates.
• 
• Do the same process for entire building.
• The tasks should be completed in order.
• In view point click on record.
• Now click on simulate to play previously recorded tasks and to stop the recording.
• Save the project file.
• 
• 

RESULT:

A schedule for the project by adding reasonable assumptions for task start date and end date is created and the task completion as a visual simulation is done. It is recorded and saved to Navisworks file.
