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.

Procedure:

Open revit files of architectural file

goto file > export > naviswork nwc

Specify the file location > click save

open structural file

repeated the above steps to export in navis work 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

Procedure:

Open navis work file

select recording option

select the walk option

Control the walkthrough arrows key and mouse to move on

select the save view

Name the view

Repeat the above steps for more views

Result:

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

Procedure:

Open navis work file

select the walk option

elect recording option

select relism option

Move the reality object with the help of mouse and keyboard arrows

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

Procedure:

  • Open previous week architectural file in Navis work
  • Click Append option >select the structural file click open
  • click on clash detection option

CLick on Add test and name the test

select the file to test in both sections

  • Run the test

Result:

As we observed the clash has been observed in the background

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

Procedure:

Open navis work file

Click on time liner option

rename in the name option
  • select the elements in selection tree and attach the selection option
Do repeat the same steps to create multiple task
Result:
select the simulation option
click on play botton
Finally the animation of construction will be playing till end.
