Course description
Navisworks: Beginner
With Autodesk NavisWorks designers and collaborators can unite 3D models and BIM data to create a cohesive model for virtual design and construction tasks. With this model they can create rendered visualizations that are static or animated. Scan the model for conflicts with clash detection. Or use the model for 4D planning and analysis.
Upcoming start dates
Suitability - Who should attend?
This is an introductory course for architects, engineers, and construction managers who are new NavisWorks users.
Assumed Knowledge
Students should have working knowledge of either building information modeling or model-based design, and be comfortable using any type of scheduling software.
Outcome / Qualification etc.
After completing this course, students will be able to confidently use NavisWorks, Animator, Clash Detective, Presenter, Scripter, and TimeLiner tools to create, analyze, and animate models for coordinating designs across a variety of disciplines.
