collisions in Navisworks?
For flawless construction which is largely becoming popular in Architecture, Engineering and
Construction industry today, we should not forget to give credit to cutting-edge tools such as
Navisworks Manage and Revit, which are important for the creating and bettering the quality and
standard of building design. Navisworks Manage includes a high-end system for identifying,
organizing, evaluating and resolving clashes from multidiscipline Revit files. AEC professionals
have to make efficacious use of the tools which are contained in Navisworks Manage for
handling clashes.
Use the following tips for handling the identified collisions in Navisworks
• There are extensive options which can be used by Navisworks users for managing and
organizing a huge number of element collisions which are determined during clash
detection.
• Buttons accommodated in results area can be utilized for grouping and ungrouping
identified clashes, which can minimize the doubts of design and construction
professionals when it comes to providing solutions to them.
• For example, if Navisworks Mange users want to develop a new clash group for
combining all similar clashes in a group, they have to use the icon called New Group for
doing so.
• That means the new clash group can only be created if ‘New Group’ icon is selected by
design and construction professionals from the result area of Clash Detective tool.
• The icon named as ‘Group’ should be used by Navisworks users for developing a group
out of selected clashes. In this way a new folder can be developed by users which contain
a new clash group.
• The ‘Remove From Group’ icon or option dismantles the selected clashes from a group.
That means if users want to remove a few clashes from a previously generated group,
they can use Remove From Group option for doing so.
• On the other hand when it comes to dismantling the entire group of clashes, Navisworks
Mange users can make use of the icon named as Explode Group. With the help of this
option, the entire clash group can be ungrouped by users.
• If Navisworks users want to remove the clash test results without affecting the settings
they can use ‘Reset’ button for this purpose.
• For showing the clashes that are associated to the elements presently selected by users, in
the view they can use Filter by Selection option.
