Explore accelerated clash coordination and MEP modeling with Dynamo, using Navisworks workflows to create and manage clashes, reports, levels, and labeling for multi-discipline projects.
Master clash detection and coordination with Dynamo to reduce clashes in MEP modeling and improve team collaboration. Explore isolated, integrated, and hybrid work flows and script-based resolutions.
Export selected Revit elements to Navisworks by creating a lean view for clash detection, hiding nonessential elements, configuring visibility, and exporting discipline files for fast, clear clash checks.
Explore Navisworks overview and workflow, append files, manage selections, viewpoints, visibility, and color shading across architecture, hydraulics, air conditioning, electrical, and specialty systems for crash detection.
Explore how to run clash detection across multi-file coordination with Dynamo, set up tests, configure clash types (structure against architecture, structure against piping), and review results to resolve interferences.
Export clashes with the report tool to a CSV file for reading in our platform and cross-checking across files. Capture item id, grid location, and properties for each element.
Explore the latest Revit 2024 and Navisworks 2024 updates, noting minimal UI changes, consistent object properties, and streamlined export workflows for structural models within accelerated clash coordination with Dynamo.
Review Dynamo 2024 updates by inspecting libraries, packages, and custom nodes. Verify clashes workflow, visibility, and file management to ensure cohesive MEP modeling pipelines.
Create an interference file and use a glass sphere family to visualize clashes across linked models, while validating levels, elements, and links.
Use Dynamo to read a csv file, transpose headers, extract x, y, z values, then clean, filter, and export csv files by element id and structural, electrical, low voltage disciplines.
Create spheres and manage visibility of links using Dynamo, read input, identify clash points, and highlight clashes with color overrides to streamline clash coordination in MEP modeling.
Set linked view visibility across elements using a Dynamo script and the Dynamo player, then check clashes, refine visibility, and verify results in the glasses view.
Run a Dynamo script to detect clashes among generic model elements, compute center points, test intersections, delete duplicates, and rename remaining elements for unique, non-intersecting geometry.
Create and configure a generic clash view in Dynamo, selecting elements, extracting parameters, and setting bounding boxes and section views to visualize clashes for accelerated MEP modeling.
Organize clashes by creating grouped sheets, splitting elements into six groups across multiple pages, assigning an id parameter, and renaming elements by type for scheduling.
Create and format view-specific schedules by generating labeled items from view elements, applying category and parameter names, and building sorting, grouping, and field-based string filters for per-view organization.
Create sheets to organize views and schedules by group, assign indexed names, and place viewpoints using coordinates to support clash detection in Dynamo for MEP modeling.
This course is part of a dynamic series focused on using Dynamo as a core tool for BIM processes across all project types, with a special emphasis on clash coordination and MEP modeling. Designed to help you overcome the challenges of modeling piping installations and managing clash detection, it empowers you to achieve faster and more precise results.
Clash coordination can be a time-consuming process, especially when BIM workflows are introduced late in traditional CAD environments. This course tackles those challenges head-on, showing how to integrate clash detection and resolution early in the project lifecycle to maximize BIM’s benefits. You'll learn techniques for improving project scopes, workflows, and clash management, enabling a smoother development process from start to finish.
We’ll cover how to integrate Navisworks clash detection methods with Dynamo to identify and resolve clashes early on through a hierarchical breakdown. You'll also use Dynamo Player to remodel and accelerate clash coordination, making it easier to implement changes and maintain project accuracy.
In addition, this course dives into using Dynamo Player for engineering validation of pipes, ducts, and conduit elements, ensuring accurate information with custom scripts. We’ll walk through real-world examples, demonstrating how to convert CAD lines into Revit MEP elements and develop workflows that adapt to project needs.
BIM is evolving rapidly, reshaping the AEC industry through automation and smarter coordination. Dynamo is used worldwide to speed up Revit models, enable complex modeling, and streamline project management. This course helps you harness that power, bringing new possibilities to your work.
Go at your own pace with lifetime access, and don’t miss the chance to stay updated and improve your BIM skills to gain a competitive edge.
