To Use Navigate tool to use Realism feature to walk through the model and record your moving as animation in Navisworks file.
INTRODUCTION :
- When you navigate a 3D model, you can use the realism tools on the Viewpoint tab Navigate panel to control the speed and realism of your navigation. The realism tools are not available in a 2D workspace.
- Navisworks (known for a while as JetStream) is a 3D design review package for Microsoft Windows. ... The software was originally created by Sheffield, UK based developer NavisWorks (a subsidiary of Lightwork Design).
PROCEDURE :
- The architecture file which we want to export to the Navisworks is to be opened.
- Then click on viewpoint tool and followed by selecting save view point option.
- Save the view with appropriate name and click enter, click on the realistic option from the ribbon and select third-person option.
- Now select walk option and use the curson to select where want to start the walk.
- we can move the view in the project with the help of arrows.

-
with the help of walk tool we can move to the desired position
-
Now we can use the record option and record the walk with the help of realistic third person


- The realism walkthrough automatically saved the file like a frame 1,2,3......,
- the saved living room file animation as given below
- And then finally exported the animation to our media


RESULT :
Finally the realism animation as be completed with the help of walkthrough and realism option in the view point tool bar and also help with use of export animation and recorder option
RESULT as been submitted in the browser.
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 Embed both architecture and structure *.nwc file to your Navisworks file. Create a clash detection test between the two modelsth architecture and structure *.nwc file to your Navisworks file. Create a clash detection test between the two models
INTRODUCTION :
- The Clash Detective tool enables you to search through your total project model, identifying cross-discipline interferences (clashes) earlier in the design process. This feature is available for Autodesk Navisworks Manage users only.
- Used primarily in construction industries to complement 3D design packages (such as Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, and MicroStation), Navisworks allows users to open and combine 3D models; navigate around them in real-time (without the WASD possibility); and review the model using a set of tools including comments, redlining
PROCEDURE :
- Open the naviswork manage software
- open the architectural file where you saved
- Next we can use the append option to link the structural file into the architectural file
- After finished the link we can check they are linked or not


- After finishing the linked project
- We can use the clash detective option to check the clash in the building

- The clash detective dialogue box as been opened
- opened box as shown below
- after they opened just pick the add test
- And give it name for that demo test
- pick the architectural in section (A), and pick the structural in section (B)

- after finishing selected of architectural and structural
- we can select the surface option and click the run test.
- And make its some time to run

- After finishing the detective test
- We can see the how clashes are detected
- I will detect 316 clashes in my building
- if we solved the any of the clashes we can marked with the colours by using status option
- with use of status option we make resolved, active, reviewed, approved
