    Description

    We’ve pulled out all of the stops when it comes to the tools we use in building information modeling (BIM) coordination. In this session, we’ll explore the various plug-ins for Navisworks software and Revit software that we use to streamline the BIM coordination process, and we’ll show how we’ve optimized our workflow using a combination of Model Coordination and Navisworks to achieve an issue-free model. We’ll discuss setting up the Model Coordination space and breaking up coordination models into manageable sizes. We’ll cover clash grouping, automated viewpoint creation in Navisworks using HoloBuilder, and the creation of 3D room tags using Dynamo. We’ll also discuss using search sets, selection sets, appearance profilers, batch utilities, automated NWC exports, and the use of Autodesk Build software during coordination.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn how to use both Model Coordination and Navisworks to the fullest extent to communicate issues to subcontractors.
    • Learn how to execute BIM coordination on large projects.
    • Learn about model and file size management—overcoming the challenges of web-based files in coordination.
    • Learn about the Autodesk Build platform—Issues, Meeting Minutes, Schedule—and about using the built-in tools to enhance your BIM coordination process.
