Autodesk Navisworks Manage (Clash Detection-4D-5D-BOQ-Walk)

Explore clash detection concepts in Navisworks, including clash matrix, hard and soft clashes, and sets, for case studies in mechanical, electrical, and piping systems.

Define a clash matrix to set clash detection criteria and ensure contractor and consultant review the same model with identical metrics before submission.

Explore the detailed clash matrix in Navisworks, defining hard clashes, clearance criteria (C50), and not applicable cases, and align your criteria with the consultant for clash detection.

Build a customizable clash matrix by defining vertical and horizontal element lists across mechanical, electrical, architecture, and structure. Group ducts, cable trays, equipment, lighting, doors, walls, floors, and ceilings.

Build and configure the clash matrix as the core of clash detection, defining vertical and horizontal items like ducts, cables, equipment, and fixtures, with c50 clearance and five centimetres.

Export nwc files from Revit using the nwc exporter add-in, then export all models—architecture, structure, and services—for Navisworks clash detection.

Navigate the Navisworks interface for clash detection, focusing on the Home tab and clash detective tool, and learn to use visibility, selection tree, and properties for review.

Explore the Navisworks interface, opening multi-file projects exported from Revit, and use the selection tree, properties, and visibility controls for efficient clash detection.

Create clash tests in Navisworks using the clash detective and define sets to simplify selection; group ducts and pipes into duct and pipe sets for efficient clashes.

Learn how to translate components into sets, create and manage save selections and save searches, and perform clash detection between sets using the clash matrix in Navisworks.

Learn to use find items to create duct-related sets (ducts, fittings, insulation, lining) with category and property filters, then compare save selection and save search for clash detection.

Master clash detection set management in Navisworks by using save search instead of save selection; build pipes and ducts sets updated from Revit for the clash matrix.

Create all MEP sets in Navisworks by selecting cable trays, mechanical and electrical equipment, sprinklers, air terminals, lighting and electrical fixtures, low current devices, then export without the center line.

create arch and structure sets in navisworks while exporting bim files without center lines, defining walls, floors, ceilings, doors, windows, stairs, plumbing fixtures, and structural elements before running clash detection.

Learn to create clash detection in Navisworks using the clash detective, set hard clashes with tolerances, and run tests across duct, pipe, cable trays, and mechanical sets.

Learn to create clash detections in Navisworks by exporting Revit links to nwc, compiling them into an mwf, and testing ducts, doors, windows, and ceilings for clashes.

Learn to create and update clash detections in Navisworks for pipes, ducts, and cables, export from Revit to refresh metrics, and understand nwf versus nwd submission workflows.

Learn the Navisworks clash detection cycle: export NWC from Revit, update all clashes in NWF, and save as NWD for submissions, with repeated validation.

Learn clash detection management in Autodesk Navisworks Manage, including reviewing, solving, and approving clashes, exporting reports, and using hide or dim views to distinguish actual clashes from clearances.

Use the time liner in Navisworks to create 4D simulations by linking project time to the 3D model, and extend to 5D by adding project cost.

Link the baseline program to the project time frame in Navisworks to enable 4D and 5D simulations by defining start and end dates for each activity, foundation and floor slabs.

Explore how to set up 4D and 5D simulations in Navisworks using timeliner, aligning baseline and actual dates, costs, and activity types (construct or demolish) for project planning.

Connect the 3D Navisworks model to the 4D timeline by manually adding a foundation task, attaching elements, and reviewing blend versus actual dates in the Gantt chart.

Learn to import data sources into Navisworks Timeliner, map CSV fields to external sources, save as CSV, and rebuild the task hierarchy for 4d planning.

Create sets and save selections to organize foundation, ground floor slabs, and roofs; use manual and auto attach using rules to map elements to activities.

Apply Navisworks 4D simulation to visualize construction sequence, monitor progress, and evaluate the project plan for timing issues, using sets and attachments to align start and end dates.

Compare planned and actual Navisworks 4D dates by adding actual start and end dates, detecting delays, and visualizing performance with color-coded timeliner and synchronization.

Learn to build 4D and 5D simulations in Navisworks by editing a CSV to add labor, equipment, subcontractor, and material costs, map data, and display costs with a Gantt overlay.

Learn to build a 4D Navisworks case study by synchronizing mechanical, structure, and drainage models into sets and a multi-phase schedule, then simulate and verify via a 4D timeline.

Navisworks 4D simulation with animation shows how to create saved viewpoints, build an animation sequence from rotating and zooming, and link the 4D simulation to the saved viewpoints.

Discover Navisworks quantification by configuring project settings, building an item catalog for structure, columns, walls, floors, stairs, and foundation, taking off model quantities, and exporting results to XML or Excel.

Export quantities to Excel from Navisworks quantifications, review item and group pivot tables for summaries and details, and use item catalog property mapping to add description one and description two.

Create and update quantities in Navisworks using scratch methods or catalog templates; import model parameters, apply uni format or CSI format, and organize substructure, shell, superstructure, and services across models.

Use the appearance profiler to create a color template for model categories, assigning colors to floors, framing, columns, walls, stairs, and foundations, then save and reuse it in other projects.

Master Navisworks clash detection, Timeliner, quantification, and appearance profile to manage construction projects, then assign and edit materials for rendering with full render and view options.

Apply materials such as concrete cast in place, set up lights and sun, adjust environments and sky, and explore rendering effects and performance in Autodesk Rendering 2.

Walkthrough 1 demonstrates navigation and camera control in Autodesk Navisworks Manage, including zoom, orbit, look around, and focus, with gravity and collision to create realistic walk and fly-through simulations.

Learn to create a guided walkthrough in Navisworks by enabling gravity and collision, navigating with left-click, scroll to rotate, and using view points to move across floors and stairs.
