Challenge

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:-

Use the Architecture/ Structure Project file developed by you in Week 6 to 8.Export the revit file to navishwork cache file.

PROCEDURE:-

  • Open the revit file which we want to export to the Navishwork file.

  • Click on file and select export option and choose NWC.

  • Now the exporting work finished.
  • Now open Navisworks software and click on open tool from file menu.

  • Open dialog box appears,type the file which we want to open in Navishwork and select the NWC extension and click on ok.
  • Now the Revit file opened in navishwork.

RESULT:-

With the help of navishwork software we can develope and export the architectural file into navishwork cashe 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:-

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:-

  • Go to Navishwork software and click on view point tool and select save view point option.

  • Save the view with appropriate name and click on enter button.

  • Select walk potion and click the cursor where we want to start the walk.

  • With the help of arrow keys we can move the view in the project.

  • We can use the record option and record the walk.

RESULT:-

With the above steps we can use navigate tool to walk around the model and walk through rooms and record our movings.

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

AIM:-

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

PROCEDURE:-

  • Click on view point tool and select save view point option.
  • Click on realistic option from the ribbon and select third person option.

  • Select walk option and click the cursor where we want to start the walk.

  • We can use the record option and record the walk with the help of realistic third person.
  • The pictures will saved as frames.

RESULT:-

With the help of above steps we can use navigate tool to use realistic feature to walk through the model and record moving.

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 create a clash detaction test between the architectural and structural model.

PROCEDURE:-

  • We load and open the structural and architectural files we can start the clash test.

  • Go to home menu and select clash detective.
  • Clash detective dialog box appears.
  • Click on add test option.
  • Now select the files which we want to test and click on run test.

  • We can approve the clashes as the part of construction,these clashes will not be appeared.Once we click on approve,it turns into green.

  • We can neglect the clashes which will not cause any disturbance to the project.

  • Once we change all the clashes we can save the navisworks file.Now file is ready and can be sent for review.

RESULT:-

We have done the clash detection test and can resolve the problems .

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:-

Using the timeliner feature in Navishwork we can prepare a schedule for the project by adding reasonal assumptions like task start and end date and simulate the task.

PROCEDURE:-

  • Open the Navishwork file and click on timeliner tool from the home menu.

  • Timeliner dialog box appears.

  • Click on selection tree to select the components and add them to the timeliner.

  • Click on add task to add the first work in the project.

  • We can add the actual and planned start and end dates.
  • Once we finish all the details in the timeline dialog box we can click on simulate option.

  • The simulation starts and we can see the construction from the starting date to end in the form of video.

RESULT:-

We can use the timeliner feature to prepare a schedule for the project and add dates to our project and complete a visual simulation.
