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

Aim:

To Exporting the Revit architecture and structure model to the Navisworks Cache file as discussed in the video.

Tools Used:

1. File
2. NWC
3. Navisworks

Procedure:

Step 1:

1) Go to the Autodesk website

2) Search Naviswork export utility and download 2021 version

3) Click run and extract it.

Step 2:

1) Open a saved file in the Revit application

2) Click file and export it into NWC

3) Save the file in an appropriate location

Step 3:

1) Open Navisworks Manage 2021

2) Click the File menu and choose Open

3) Open a file that we saved from the Revit application

Result:

Thus the Revit file has been exported to Navisworks successfully.

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

Aim:

To creating the walk-through model and recording the movements using Navisworks.

Tools Used:

1. Walk
2. Record

Step 1:

1) Open a Naviswork and import a file

2) Click the Walk tool in the Viewport tab

Step 2:

1) In the selection tree select the 3d view which you want to walkthrough

2) By using the mouse move as your wish

3) Depends upon the mouse moving the screen will moving inside the room as human walking.

Step 3:

1) Click the record option in the viewport

2) Once the recording starts move your walkthrough

3) Stop the recording and the saved files will automatically appear in the selection tree

Result:

Thus the Walkthrough our model using the navigation tool has been done successfully.

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

Aim:

To creating the Realism feature to walk through the model using the Navigation tool in Navisworks

Tools used:

1. Walk
2. Realism
3. Record
4. Framings

Procedure:

Step 1:

1) Open a Naviswork and import an architectural file

2) Click the Realism tool in the Viewport tab

3) Choose the Third-person option.

Step 2:

1) After clicking the Realism option

2) A human model will appear on the screen

3) From this human model we can easily walk through and seeing the plan more realistically.

Result:

Similarly, we can record these walk framings as we did in the normal walk through the tool

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 of 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 run the clash detection test between two files and listing the clashes using Navisworks

Tools used:

1. Clash detective
2. Run
3. Status

Procedure:

Step 1:

1) Open an Architectural file

2) Export it to the Naviswork

Step 2:

1) After exporting the architectural file click Append

2) Choose to Append and import Structural file into this file

Step 3:

1) Once the architectural and structural file has been merged click the Clash detective tool in Viewport

2) Click Start Test

3) Choose Architectural vs Structural

4) Click Run test

5) After running the test the result screen will appear.

Step 4:

1. Here I allocate the status as Approved, Reviewed, Active. Resolved based on the preference.
2. When you click the clash and switch it into Approved it turns as Green round similarly Yellow for Reviewed, Orange for Active

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

Aim:

To create the schedule of the project using Navisworks.

Tools used:

* Item tools

* Timeline

* Simulate

Procedure:

Step 1:

1) Open Naviswork and import the file you want to schedule

2) Click the Timeliner tool in the home tab

Step 2:

1) After clicking the timeline tool enable the selection treen on the left side of the screen

2) Click the Add task option

3) Name the task and assign the start date and end date of the activity

4) Click Attach and choose the current selection simultaneously.

Step 3:

1) After entering all the necessary data in the field

2) Click the Simulate tool

3) Click the play option

4) Now the schedule will play as per the selection and date

5) Video will play from foundation to roof as per the date we scheduled

Result:

Thus the schedule has been done using timeline features in Navisworks successfully.
