Usage of Navigation tool , Timeliner and Clash Detection test using Naviswork
Aim : 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
Procedure :



1. Go to Revit Software
2. Open the architecture File of the model
3. Go to files and then export.
4. In Export go to nwc File.
5. Select nawiswork type file and then save the file by naming it as Architecture file.
6. Do the same process for the Structure File
Aim : 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
Procedure :
Go to Naviswork software
2. Open the file which was exported from the revit
3. After Opening Architecture file and just go to the viewpoint tab
4. After going to viewpoint tab go to walkthrough option and start walking using the mouse and scroll button
5. You can also record the video while processing the walk through option.
6. After recording go to the Export Animation.
7. And then you can save the recorded walk through in your selected file
Aim : 3) Use Navigate tool to use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in Navisworks file
Procedure :
1. Go to Navis software
2. Open the Model which is exported through the Revit
3. Go to view point option
4. Then go to Realism and then third person option
5. After going to third person option the third person will appear
6. Open the save view point option and then rename it as realism
7. While doing the walkthrough you can record the walkthrough
8. And then you can stop the recording option
9. And then in Export Animation you can save the recording
Aim :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
Procedure:
1. Go to Append tool
2. Choose the structure file and open it
3. To run the clash detection test you have clash detuctive option under home tab
4. Rename the test as demo test
5. Select the architecture from section A and then select Structure from Section B
6. Choose the surface option and run test
7. And then clash will be deducted
8. New Active, Resolved, Approved all the clashes will be deducted
Conclusion : In this way the challenge 11 is completed
