4) Embed both architecture and structure *.nwc file to your Navisworks file. 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
AIM : To embed both files and run clas detection test , study and list clashes that could be approved,neglected and resolved and save the results, annotate and save the view in navisworks.
TOOLS USED : Append, architectural, structural files, Clash Detective, Resloved, approved, reviewed , comment, save viewpoint , save.
PROCEDURE :
1. Open the navisworks and open Architectural view in it.
2. Click Append in the home tab and open structural file and click ok.

7. Save the navisworks manage file and name it suitably to save the test results as well.
RESULT : The above mentioned operations a,b,c,d,e,f,g are done succesfully.
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
AIM : To use timeliner feature and prepare a schedule for project developed in week 6 to 8, simulate the task as visual simulation and record it and save the timeline simulation to navisworks file.
TOOLS USED : Structural file, timeliner, Selection tree, Simulate, record.
PROCEDURE :
1. Open the structural file and click on Timeliner tool.
2. Click on selection tree and we can view what all are need to be constructed or need to be scheduled.
3. Now in the timeline dialogue box, Click on add task and name it properly and add start date, end date, actual start, actual end, task type.
4. Now select the members needs to be added to the attach in timeliner and select the task and click on attach to the current task. Continue to complete all the members to be constructed and do the schedule same as done above.
5. Now after completing the schedule, Click on simulate and click on record to record the progress of project stage wise according to the timeline we have set.
RESULT : The timeline is set successfully and the animation of simulation is also recorded.
The recording is saved right side in the saved viewpoints.
