Usage of Navigation tool , Timeliner and Clash Detection test using Naviswork
Q 1) Use the Architecture/ Structure Project file developed by you in weeks 6 to 8. Export the Revit architecture and structure model to the Navisworks Cache file following the export settings discussed in class
Aim:- To export Revit architecture and structure model to the Navisworks Cache file.
Procedure:-
- First, we have to Navisworks software from the Autodesk website.
- download the Navisworks extension file also. Install both in your system.
- Now, open your exciting project.

- To export the current file into Navisworks go-to File>export>NWC

- choose file destination.

- repeat the same process for the architectural files.
Result:-

Q 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 use Navigate Tool to walk around the model and record your moving as animation in your Navisworks file.
Procedure:-
- open the exported Revit file in Navisworks software.

- go to viwepoint> walk


- to record go to viewpoint>save viewpoint > record


Result:- The walk-through and video have been created.
Q 3) Use Navigate tool to use the Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in the Navisworks file
Aim:- To use the Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation
Procedure:-
- open the same file.
- go to viewpoint>realism>third person

- go to animation >record
Result:-






Q 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 create a clashes detection test between the two models
Procedure:-
- open your naviswork architecture.
- now, add structural file also in that for that go-to home>append>click on the structural file

- go to home tab > clash detective>clash detection test.

- Run the Clash Detection Test


- Study the clashes between the two models

- List which of the clashes could be approved

- List which of the clashes could be neglected

- List which of the clashes can be resolved


- Save the results after color-coding the clashes to the Navisworks file

- In case of resolution annotate the clash and save the view to defined views in Navisworks

Result:- The clash detective is done successfully.
Q 5) Using the Timeliner feature in Navisworks prepare a schedule for the project developed in weeks 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 the Navisworks file
Aim:- To create a timeline feature in Navisworks.
Procedure:-
- open model in Naviswork
- before starting timeliner enable selection tree, Home> selection tree.

- go to Home>TimeLiner

- now we can see the time liner tool panel.

- Add task and give start and end date, task type(construction)

- Now, attach the desired level and component to each task by clicking attach on task and selecting from the selection tree.

- click on simulate, play it and record it.

- to save the animated video go to export animation and save it.

Result:-
