The interface follows standard Autodesk design with a ribbon-based navigation system.
By integrating heterogeneous design data from various disciplines, it transitions construction management from a reactive state to a highly predictable, proactive environment.
The Quantification tool automates the traditionally manual and error-prone process of quantity takeoff. It allows users to accurately extract material quantities—such as lengths, areas, volumes, and counts—directly from the 2D sheets or the federated 3D model. This data can then be exported to create precise Bills of Quantities (BOQs), support cost planning, and inform procurement decisions, ensuring material orders are accurate and reducing waste. Navisworks Manage
TimeLiner is the powerful 4D scheduling tool within Navisworks Manage. It imports schedules from various sources, including Microsoft Project, Oracle Primavera, and Excel spreadsheets. Users can then connect tasks in the schedule with objects in the model to create a .
A published, standalone snapshot of the full model. It embeds all geometry and data, making it perfect for sharing with clients or viewing in Navisworks Freedom. Quantification (Takeoff Tools) The interface follows standard Autodesk design with a
It detects hard clashes, clearance clashes (needed for maintenance), and duplicate items. 2. Comprehensive Model Federation
Supports over 60 different file formats, allowing teams using different CAD software to collaborate in one environment. and track their resolution status.
Clash management is equally important. Once clashes are found, the tool allows you to assign them to specific team members, set priorities, and track their resolution status. Issues can be grouped logically by trade or zone, such as "Structure vs. MEP - Floor 3," to prevent an overwhelming number of individual clash points. This organized workflow ensures accountability and a clear path to a resolved, clash-free model.
Navisworks Manage links 3D model geometry to external project schedules (from tools like Microsoft Project or Primavera P6). This integration creates a 4D simulation, visually representing the construction sequence over time.
