Explore the Navisworks interface, from the quick access toolbar and the ribbon to windows, workspaces, and the view cube, and learn how to open, save, and manage NWF/NWC files.
Append and open Navisworks different files
Master object selection and visibility in Navisworks by using the select tool, select box, save selection, and sets. Navigate the selection tree, find items, and apply hide, unhide, or require.
Explore Navisworks sectioning tools to enable planes or a section box for cross-sections. Save viewpoints for ground floor plan view and elevation, and share comments via the saved viewpoints window.
Learn to use the grids tool to locate areas at specific levels. Use fixed grids to align with second floor, below and above modes, and plane one.
Review BIM models in Navisworks to address consultant comments, RFIs, and internal team commands, aligning shop drawings with specifications and design drawings for accurate project outcomes.
Master measurements, redlines markups, and comments in Navisworks Manage by using the Review tab tools to create point-to-point, area, and tagged viewpoints, and to manage comments and revisions.
View and extend element properties in Navisworks using properties window and quick properties, add custom user data, and manage item tools with supplier links, transforms, and appearance.
Navisworks clash detection training teaches how to configure a clash test between MEP and structural elements, set rules, adjust tolerance, and generate shareable reports synced with Revit.
Convert clash tests into shareable html tabular reports by selecting contents and properties, showing item id, status, layer name, and grid location for architecture vs structural elements.
Sync clash report results between Revit and Navisworks to identify and resolve MEP clashes by switch back or element ID, then export and refresh the clash test.
Explore introduction to quantification in Navisworks, comparing designer BOQ workflows with contractor takeoffs, using CSI-16 and other standards to build and export a structured quantification workbook.
Create a material takeoff report in Navisworks by organizing project activities with the item catalog and quantification workbook, level by level from foundation to top, including stairs with property mapping.
Export the quantification workbook to Excel, organize by activity name with its cubic meter quantity, then create a pivot table to generate a readable material takeoff.
Learn to use the Navisworks resource catalog to add plaster and paint, assign finishes to columns, compute surface-area quantities via the quantification workbook, and export rebar data.
Discover how BIM supports construction management with Navisworks quantification, quantity takeoffs, cost estimates, and clash detection to streamline scheduling and improve project outcomes.
Create the schedule of activities for the management building using concrete and rebar quantities to drive a 4D and 5D Navisworks simulation via an Excel sheet.
Master Navisworks animations using saved viewpoints, record tool, and animator; export 4d and 5d simulations as videos and choreograph a car park and tower crane sequence.
Explore variation orders that modify scope, time, or materials, and document them clearly using a variation order form; BIM and Navisworks aid change detection and cost quantification.
Explore practical rendering in Navisworks: assign Revit materials, use Autodesk library, adjust render styles and lighting, map materials, and export renders; note Navisworks is not ideal for detailed rendering.
Master the scripter in Navisworks to trigger door animations during a walk-through, using events, actions, and conditions like on start, timer, key press, collisions, and hotspots.
Publish Navisworks files as NWD using save as or publish, embedding all NWC data, enabling password protection. Add metadata with title, author, publisher, keywords, comments, set expiration, and share securely.
*First course on Udemy about CONTRACTOR SERVICES
*In this course students will be familiar with the BIM services that Navisworks can provide for any BIM project. First, we will cover Navisworks workspace, how to control it and how to navigate through BIM model, then we will move to the Model Review process, we will learn more about the different sources of comments that we receive as contractors and how to review the models against those comments. The next topic which we are going to cover in this course is the Coordination. The coordination is one of the biggest challenges that we face as contractors on the construction site, so we will learn how to use navisworks to help us in the coordination process between different disciplines and how to sync these results with Revit models. Then we will learn how to create Material Takeoff reports to make the contractor orders based on the construction site activities. Then the activities will be linked with time and cost to create the 4D & 5D Simulation.
Preparing (VOs) is one of the most important tasks that we make as contractors, we will discuss that topic as well.
At the end of this course you will learn how to create a very nice animation and rendering
