A few things that should be considered by Navisworks users during clash detection

Navisworks is a great contribution of Autodesk for design and construction professionals which can thoroughly review and examine 3D models developed for representing the design of different building disciplines. Prior to the presence of Navisworks there was no such software that had the potential to examine even the integrated 3D models which are developed by coordinating all the multidiscipline models. This software is purposely designed by Autodesk to sort out the problems of design and construction professionals when it comes to improving their accuracy by identifying design inconsistencies between them.

Apart from helping in identifying clashes between model elements it is also used by AEC professionals for developing simulation videos that are used for showing step by step method of construction. Simulation videos are extremely crucial for design and construction professionals for keeping themselves aware about the step by step construction process.

Now coming to the point, what are those things that should be remembered by Navisworks users when they execute clash detection services in Navisworks? There are quite a few things that should be taken seriously by users for accomplishing clash detection services. The first thing would be creating viewpoints which incorporate comments, measurements and markups etc that are very necessary for users to understand the technicalities of clashes. Without creating viewpoints Navisworks users won’t be able to deal properly with clashes identified during the process.  Without the assistance of markups and comments Navisworks users would find it difficult to sort out the clashes. Viewpoints must be organized systematically or into sensible hierarchies so that effective workflow can be created for the rectification of clashes. Navisworks users must understand the gravity of the clashes in relation to their ability to harm or affect the project in question. Navisworks must have clarity about hard clashes and soft clashes and they should be provided with appropriate solutions depending upon their seriousness. But it doesn’t indicate that soft clashes should not be rectified instead it means that hard clashes should be given the priority since they can have adverse effect on the project.

And finally the results of clash tests must be studied properly by the users and it is mandatory for them to organize the results properly so that appropriate solutions can be provided for them.

BIM Execution Plan and Its Importance for Construction Companies

Image
Overview The advent of BIM Modeling into the construction industry has prevailed the implementation of BIM Execution Plan to enhance the right flow of work to execute the project successfully. It can be analysis and execution during various phases of the project. What is BIM Execution Plan? BIM Execution Plan is a complex and detailed document that helps the project team to identify and execute the role of BIM in various phases of construction in the project. BEP needs to be accurate to make the teams keep on track by focusing on details, saving on time and reduces rework. BEP is primarily used when there is a higher level of complexity and project size is huge. It lays an overall plan with details as to how the process will be executed. It is the process of creating a digital model of building or structures to aid collaboration among people involved in the project. BEP Comprises of type of information as followed: •     How to create data in BIM fil...

An Introduction of 4D BIM Techniques

Image
Overview Construction scheduling in project management is about recording project benchmarks, outputs, start and end date of a predetermined building project. 4D BIM that caters to Construction Scheduling is also known as Construction sequencing. It includes project drafting and project extraction arrangement for every project management. Construction Scheduling is vital for the construction as labor force, equipment and other related activities require effective organizing and scheduling of construction activities. It helps in knowing the time to accomplish the project and streamline the cost estimation factor for all the construction professionals. Construction scheduling techniques of projects Several techniques help the contractor to keep construction scheduling of the project. Aiding in project requirement assessment and overcome challenges of the project schedule. Bar Charts: It is considered as one of the most common technique to generate construction schedul...

BIM modeling services: Which software solutions can be used for developing 3D parametric models?

Building Information Modeling technology is closely related to the development of 3D parametric models for architecture, structure and MEP, which are effectively packed with all the essential information pertaining to design and construction. Building Information Modeling services have become the cardinal requirement for architects and engineers when it comes to the flawless execution of building projects.  Building Information Modeling services are not only important for design and construction professionals but also for building owners, construction managers and fabricators etc.  BIM is the process of developing the entire building in virtual world through high-end Building Information Modeling applications like Revit Architecture, Revit Structure and Revit MEP. All these BIM applications are used for developing the entire building in 3D. Actually the design of every building discipline is separately represented through 3D parametric models which are generat...
