Objective
1. Navisworks is coordination tool
2. It is useful to simulate, timeline, and Clash detection
3. We can use Revit also for clash detection, Navis will help us to
make detection in depth. But, Main work of Navis is to view whole
model whether it is architecturally and technically good or not.
Export setting from Revit
1. Open 3D view which needs to export. Hide all unuseful elements
form visibility, Filter or, EH.
2. FILE>EXPORT>NWC 3. Click on Navisworks Settings
4. Match settings as shown bellow
5. You can export all discipline(architecture, structure, MEPF from one file with this setting.
6. If you need to categorise discipline individually you need to export files individually from all Revit
files. For this just change marked setting as number 6
