Overview

The Autodesk(R) Navisworks(R) 2023: Fundamentals guide teaches you how to use the Autodesk(R) Navisworks(R) Manage software in a BIM workflow to better predict project outcomes, reduce conflicts, minimize changes, and lower project risks. The guide provides instructions on how to consolidate civil, architectural, structural, and MEP models into a single BIM model and check for conflicts. It also discusses how to use the Review and Markup tools to communicate issues across disciplines, the Quantification module to create estimates for building material, and the TimeLiner, Animator, and Clash Detective to simulate construction and to identify any constructibility issues and on-site clashes. Finally, it describes how to use the Rendering feature of the software to better communicate design intent to the project team and other stakeholders. This guide is designed for new and experienced users of the Autodesk Navisworks software in multiple disciplines. Topics Covered Understanding the purpose of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and how it is applied in the Autodesk Navisworks software Consolidate Models Navigating the Autodesk Navisworks workspace and interface Creating a composite model Transforming models for proper alignment Review and Analyze Models Using basic viewing tools Saving and retrieving views Sectioning a model Investigating properties Searching for items Hiding and unhiding items Communication Measuring a model Adding tags and comments to model components Marking up the model Animating a model Writing scripts for interacting with the model Creating photorealistic images Collaboration Reviewing a model for clashes Consolidating markups from other team members Performing quantification calculations and material takeoffs Construction Creating a construction timeline Animating a construction timeline Prerequisites Access to the 2023.0 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide.
