Usage of Navigation tool , Timeliner and Clash Detection test using Naviswork
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 use the architecture/ structure project file to export the Revit architecture and structural model to the Naviswork cache file
TOOLS USED:
- FILE
- EXPORT
- NWC
PROCEDURE:
- open an architectural model created in week 8
- click on 3D view
- go to the file
- click on export and save as NWC
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 spaces created and record my moving as animation in the Navisworks file
TOOLS USED:
- NAVISWRKS
- VIEWPOINT
- WALK
- RECORD
- STOP
PROCEDURE:
- Open the file exported previously
- click on the viewpoint
- click on the walk
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: Using navigate tool to use the realism feature to walk through the model and record moving as animation in the Navisworks file
TOOLS USED:
- VIEWPOINT
- REALISM
- WALK
- STOP
PROCEDURE:
- open the architectural model in naviswork
- click on viewpoint and select the view
- click on the realism command
- check on the third person and select the record option
4) Embed 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 embed both architectural and structure *.nwc file to navisworks file and create a clash detection between the two models
TOOLS USED:
- HOME
- OPEN
- APPEND
- CLASH DETECTION
- RUN TEST
PROCEDURE:
- Open the architectural file in naviswork
- click on append in the home tab
- select the structural model to identify clashes between models
- click on clash detective
- select the architectural in one section and the structural in another section
5) Using the Timeline feature in Navisworks, prepare a schedule for the project developed in weeks 6 to 8 by adding reasonable assumptions for the task start 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 use the timeline feature in the naviswork and prepare a schedule for the project developed in weeks 6 to 8 by adding reasonable assumptions for task date and end date and simulate the task completion as a visual simulation.
TOOLS USED:
- HOME
- TIMELINER
- ADD TASK
- ATTACH THE MATERIALS
PROCEDURE:
- open the structural file in naviswork exported from Revit
- go the home
- click on the timeline
- add tasks and attach the materials by clicking on the selection tree
- assign planned and actual start and end dates to task
- Follow the same procedure for the entire building in which order the tasks have to complete
