Usage of Navigation tool , Timeliner and Clash Detection test using Naviswork
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 use the architecture/ structure project file to export revit architecture and structural model to Naviswork cache file
TOOLS USED:
FILE
EXPORT
NWC
PROCEDURE:
Open an architectural model created in week 8
Click on 3D view
Go to file
Click on export and save as NWC
Repeat it for both architctural and structural model
Open the filesin NAVISWORK Software
RESULT: revit architecture and structural model has been exported to Naviswork cache file.




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 walk through the rooms created and record my moving as animation in Navisworks file.
TOOLS USED:
NAVISWORK
VIEW POINT
WALK
RECORD
STOP
PROCEDURE:
Open the file exported previously
Click on viewpoint
Click on walk
Go to animation tab click on record and it will star recording
Walk throughly all the rooms
Click on stop after finishing
RESULT: Animation is recorded for the rooms walked thorugh and stored in saved view points




3) Use Navigate tool to use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in Navisworks file.
AIM: Using navigate tool to use realism feature to walk through the model and record moving as aniation in Navisworks file
TOOLS USED:
VIEW POINT
REALISM
WALK
STOP
PROCEDURE:
Open the architectural model in naviswork
Click on view point and select the view
Click on realism command
Check on third person and select the record option
Select walk
Walk through all the rooms of model
Click on stoP
RESULT:




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 architectural and structure *.nwc file to navisworks file and create a clash detection between thhe two models.
TOOLS USED:
HOME
OPEN
APPEND
CLASH DETECTION
RUN TEST
PROCEDURE:
Open the architectural file in naviswork
Click on append in home tab
Select the structural model to identify clashes between models
Click on clash detective
Select the architectural in one section and structural in other section
Click on run test
After test study aboout clashes like beams colukns etc.,
List the clashes which can be approved,reviewed,resolved by selcting them in drop down menu
RESULT:
Both architectural and structural files has been embed and clash detectin has done and they are studied and clashes which can be reviewed,approved,resolved are listed and saved in naviswork 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.
AIM: To use timeline feature in naviswork and prepare a schedule for the project developed in week 6 to 8 by addding reasonable assumptions for taskdate and end date and simulate the task completion as a visual simulation.
TOOLS USED:
HOME
TIMELINER
ADD TASK
ATTACH THE MATERIALS
PROCEDURE:
Open the structual file in naviswork exported from revit
Go to home
Click on timeliner
Add tasks and attach the materials by clicking on selection tree
Assign planned and actual start and ends dates to task
Follow the the same procedure for entire building in which order the tasks have to complete
Click on record
Click on simulate to play recorded tasks and stop recording
Save the project
RESULT:
Schedule has been done using timeline features in naviswork
