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

Ans.

AIM : To export the Revit architecture and structure model to Navisworks Cache file

TOOLS USED :

• File
• Export
• NWC

PROCEDURE :

• Open revit and open architectural model file
• Go to 3D view
• Click on file command and select export and then click on NWC

• The architectural file will be exported to Navisworks in NWC format
• Open Structural model file in revit
• Go to 3D view
• Click on file command and select export and then click on NWC

• The structural file will be exported to Navisworks in NWC format

RESULTS : The revit architecture and structure models are exported to Navisworks

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

Ans.

AIM : To walk around the model and walk through the rooms created using Navigate tool and to record the moving as animation

TOOLS USED :

• Navisworks
• Viewpoint
• Walk
• Record
• Stop

PROCEDURE :

• Open architecture model file in Navisworks which is exported from revit

• Click on the viewpoint command and select the view
• Select record option in viewpoint

• And click on walk under viewpoint

• Now walk through the created rooms of the model
• Click on stop command after walk is done

RESULT : Animation is recorded for the rooms which walked through

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

Ans.

AIM : To use realism feature to walk through the model and to record it as animation in Navisworks

TOOLS USED :

• Viewpoint
• Realism
• Walk
• Stop

PROCEDURE :

• Open architecture model file in Navisworks which is exported from revit
• Click on viewpoint command and select the view

• Click on realism command
• Check on third person and select the record option and then select walk

• Now walk into the rooms of the model

• Click on stop button on the top right

RESULT : Animation is created using realism feature and is recorded

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 architecture and structure *.nwc file to Navisworks file and to create a clash detection test between the models

a. To run the Clash Detection Test
b. To study the clashes between the two models
c. To list which of the clashes could be approved
d. To list which of the clashes could be neglected ( will be taken care later)
e. To list which of the clashes can be resolved
f. To save the results after color coding the clashes to the Navisworks file
g. In case of resolution annotate the clash and to save the view to defined views in Navisworks

TOOLS USED :

• Home
• Open
• Append
• Clash detection
• Run test

PROCEDURE :

• Open architectural file in Navisworks

• Click on append command under home tab

• Select the structural model to determine the clashes between both models
• Click on clash detective under home tab

• Click on new test and rename it as required
• Select the architectural and structural file
• Select the surface for both files
• Click on the run test

• Clash detection is done

• After the test study the clashes like beam and column clash etc.

• List the clashes which can be approved by selecting approved in drop down menu in the status

• List the clashes which can be taken care later as reviewed

• List the clashes which are resolved by selecting resolved from drop down menu

• After color coding is done save it with appropriate name

RESULT : Both architecture and structure *.nwc files are embedded to Navisworks file and clash detection is completed. Clashes between two models are studied, clashes which can be approved, neglected and resolved are listed and the results are saved to Navisworks file

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

Ans.

AIM : To prepare a schedule for the project using timeliner feature by adding reaonable assumptions for task start date and end date and to simulate the task completion as a visual simulation.To record it and to save the timeline simulation to Navisworks file

TOOLS USED :

• Home
• Timeliner
• Add task
• Attach the materials(Columns, Walls etc.)

PROCEDURE :

• Open the structural file in Navisworks which is already exported from revit

• Go to home tab and click on timeliner

• Add tasks and attach the materials by clicking on selection tree

• Assign the planned and actual start and end dates to the tasks

• Follow same procedure for entire building in which order the tasks have to complete
• Click on record under viewpoint
• Click on simulate to play recorded tasks and stop recording
• Then save the project

RESULT : Aschedule is prepared for the project using timeliner feature by adding reaonable assumptions for task start date and end date and simulated the task completion as a visual simulation. Recorded it and saved the timeline simulation to Navisworks file
