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:
Using the Architectural and Structural project that are created before export it to the navisworks.
Introduction:
Use the Architectural and Structural project that are created before and export it to the Naviswork using the Navisworks manage and save it as nwc. file.
Procedure:
- Install the Navisworks Manage.
- Open the Naviswork Manage.
- Go to the Architectural file and save it as the nwc. (Naviswork) file.

Result:

- Open the Naviswork Manage.
- Go to the Structural file and save it as the nwc. (Naviswork) file.

Result:

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:
Use the Navigate tool to walk around the model and walk through the rooms created and record your moving as animation.
Introduction:
Using the Navisworks Manage walk option walk through the all rooms that are created and record the movings as animation.
Procedure:
- Go to Navisworks Manage.
- Open the Architectural Model.
- In the Viewpoint option there will be walk option.
- Select the walk option.

- And in the Animation the Record option will be there.
- Select the record option.
- Then walk through the rooms.
- The animation video will be created.
- Then save it.

Result:

3) Use Navigate tool to use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in Navisworks file
Aim:
Use Navigate tool to use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation.
Introduction:
Using the Navisworks use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in the naviswork file.
Procedure:
- Go to Naviswork Manage.
- Open the Architectural model.

- Go to the Viewpoint.
- In the Realism feature there will be a Third person option.
- Select the third person option.
- Then select the walk option.
- In the save view point slect the Record option.
- Then walk through the rooms.

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:
The aim is to using the both architectural and structural model run the clash detection test between the two models.
Introduction:
Using the both architectural and structural model run the clash detection test between the two model and study the clashes between the two models.
Procedure:
- Go to Naviswork manage.
- Open a architectural model.
- Then open a structural model using the append feature.

- In the home tab Select the Clash detection.
- Then Add test.
- Select the Architectural and Structural Model.

- Then run the test.

- The all clashes will be shown.
- Then change the status of the each clash.
- The each clash will shown as each picture.
- Save the Model.

Result:

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 using the timeliner feature in Navisworks prepare a schedule for the poject developed in the past weeks and Record the timeline simulation.
Introduction:
Using the timeliner feature in Navisworks prepare schedule for the project and record the timeline simulation in an animation view.
Procedure:
- Go to Naviswork manage.
- Open Architecutral model.
- In the Home tab select the Timeliner Option.
- Also Select the Selection tree.


- In the Selection tree select the Ground Floor, Floor option.
- Then in the TimeLiner add the task.
- GF Floor, Date and the Task type as construct and attach it to the current selection in the selection tree.
- Likewise add the task for Ground Floor, First Floor and Second Floor.

- Then go to the Simulate option and run as animation.

Result:
