Challenge

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

1.

Aim:

To export the Revit architecture and structure model created in week 6 challenge to Navisworks Cache file following the export settings.

Procedure:

  • Initially Open the Autodesk account and download the Naviswork Manage software.
  • Now, open the Architectural model created in week 6 challenge in the Revit software.
  • Then go to File --> Export --> NWC file.

Now, save the file

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Hence, the file is exported.

Result:

  • The architecture model of the office building is successfully exported to the Naviswork cache file.

 

2.

Aim:

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.

Procedure:

  • Initially open the architecture file in the Naviswork.

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Now, go to walk option in the viewport tab of the Naviswork software.
  • Use the record option in the save viewport option to record animated view of each and every room

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

 

  • Entrance area:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Manager's room:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Work station cum conference area:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Wash Room:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Courtyard:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Cafeteria:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Wash room in Cafeteria:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Toilet:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Hence, Walk through the building is completed.

<!-- [if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Result:

<!-- [if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Walk around the model is completed.

3.

Aim:

To use Realism feature to walk through the model and record moving as animation in Navisworks file. 

Procedure: 

<!-- [if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->In the Naviswork software under the Viewport tab go to Realism and in realism choos third person. 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Now, again record the moving from save viewport option. 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Entrance area: 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Conference area and work station: 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Manager's Room: 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Courtyard: 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

Cafeteria:

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Wash area at cafeteria: 

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  •  Hence, the realism walk around is completed.

Result:

Walk through the model using Realism is completedly successfully.

4.

Aim:

To create the clash detection test between the two models.

Procedure:

  • Initially append the structural model to this architetural model.

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

a)

  • Initially go to home tab and in that choose clash detective icon.

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

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

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

f)  Save the results after color coding the clashes to the Navisworks file

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Hence, completed.

Result:

The Naviswork clash analysis have been successfully carried out.

 

5.

Aim:

To use the Timeliner feature in Navisworks to 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. 

Procedure:

  • Initially open the structural model in the revit.
  • Then go to file menu --> Export --> NWC file.

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Now, open the structural model in Naviswork software.

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Click add task option available in the Timeliner to add new tasks.

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

  • Next we have to update the planned and actual dates and provide type (construct).

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->

Click on simulate and record it and save the work.

  • Hence, the Timeliner simulation is completed.

<!-- [if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Result: 

<!-- [if !supportLists]-->·        <!--[endif]-->Timeliner feature in the navis work has been successfully completed and the result is given below-

<!-- [if gte vml 1]> <![endif]--><!-- [if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->
