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 :

The aim is to Export the Revit architecture and structure model to Navisworks Cache file following the export settings discussed in class

Steps:

• Open the Revit files.
• From file option select export and NWC.
• Save the file in NWC format

Result:

Hence the files are saved in NWC format.

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:

The aim is to Use Navigate Tool to walk around the model and walk through the rooms created and record your moving as animation in your Navisworks file

Steps:

• Open the revit file in Naviswork by exporting the NWC.
• Using the save view point option under viewpoint tab create a view point.
• The using the walk option create a recording of animation video. 
• The video can be saved using the export animation option.

Result:

Hence the walk through the rooms created and recorded.

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

Aim:

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

Steps:

• Using the realism option create a thrid party view.
• And record the walk, save the animation video.

Result:

Hence the Navigate tool used to Realism feature to walk through the model and 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:

The aim is to Embed both architecture and structure *.nwc file to your Navisworks file. Create a clash detection test between the two models

Steps:

• Open both Architectural and structural models in Naviswork.
• Make sure both are in same coordinates.
• Then click the clash test option.
• Add test and select the Arch and structural, then run the test.
• The clashes will be displayed. 
• Change the status for all the displayed clashes and re-run the program.

Result:

Hence the models are uploaded and the clash test is conducted.

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:

The aim is to Use the Timeliner feature in Navisworks prepare a schedule for the project.

Result:

Hence the schedule is prepared based on the activities.
