Navisworks Manage Essentials | Session 2

Navisworks Manage | Essentials - Clash Detection and Timeliner is an intensive 2 sessions x 3.5 hours (Total: 7 Hours) virtual course, led by a Certified Autodesk Instructor, designed for professionals looking to develop a foundational understanding of Navisworks Manage. This course focuses on essential workflows for performing clash detection and creating 4D simulations using the Timeliner tool, facilitating effective project management and collaboration.

During the course, you will explore Navisworks’ interface and navigation techniques, learning how to initiate new projects and link various model types to ensure smooth integration of BIM data. You will develop skills in analysing model data, creating search and selection sets, and managing element appearances to enhance visualisation. As you progress, you will practise clash detection workflows, gaining the ability to identify and manage clashes effectively, preventing costly errors and ensuring project coordination. You will also learn how to generate detailed clash detection reports to maintain project accuracy and streamline communication among project teams. In addition, the course will cover how to create project walkthroughs, both simple and advanced, providing you with tools to improve project visualisation and communication with stakeholders. You will further enhance your skills by using the Timeliner tool to produce 4D simulations that integrate project timelines with model data, helping you track construction phases and overall project progress. These simulations, along with high-quality renders, will allow you to clearly communicate project updates and milestones to stakeholders, ensuring informed decision-making throughout the project lifecycle.

Upon completing the course, you will have gained a solid understanding of how to use Navisworks Manage for clash detection and project simulations. This foundational knowledge will enable you to improve project coordination and deliver more accurate project outcomes, preparing you for more advanced Navisworks functionalities.

This course is delivered in multiple sessions, and participants are encouraged to attend them in the recommended order to support consistent learning.

To join the course, participants will need basic computer skills and a solid understanding of construction project workflows. No prior experience with Navisworks is required, but exploring the user interface beforehand is recommended.

During this session, you will explore the following topics:

• Module 3 – Clash Detection | Clash Management | Reporting: Gain a comprehensive understanding of clash detection workflows and their importance in ensuring project coordination and accuracy. Learn how to execute clash detection processes and manage clash results effectively, resolving issues early to prevent delays and costly design errors during construction. Practise generating clash detection reports to ensure project accuracy and prevent costly design oversights.
• Module 4 – Walkthroughs | Timeliner | Simulation | Renders: Create both simple and advanced project walkthroughs to improve visualisation and enhance stakeholder engagement. Learn how to use the Timeliner tool to produce 4D simulations, integrating project timelines with model data to track construction phases and overall progress. Practise generating high-quality renders and simulations that clearly depict project development, allowing you to communicate updates, timelines, and documentation effectively to stakeholders.

Before the course, you will receive a Course Pack containing training notes and/or files that need to be downloaded prior to joining the training. Please note that our training sessions are not recorded to maintain the privacy of all participants.

As an Advantage member, you receive complimentary access to course-related eLearning materials to support your knowledge retention. Login details to the e-platform are provided upon joining ARKANCE Advantage.

ARKANCE, an Authorized Autodesk Training Center, delivers high-quality training for Autodesk software users. To receive an official ARKANCE Certificate of Completion — a recognition of your commitment to ongoing professional development — you must attend all parts of the course.

Participants joining this course virtually will need:

• Navisworks Manage '22 or higher installed on their computer (required). We strongly recommend that participants join using the most recent version of the software. Please contact us if you need to purchase a software licence.
• The latest Zoom version installed on their computer (required).
• A stable internet connection with a minimum download speed of 10 Mbps (required).
• A secondary screen to follow instructions shared by the course instructor during training, along with a mouse for easy software navigation (recommended).
• A headset to ensure clear communication with the instructor, and preferably a microphone and webcam for interactive conversations (recommended).

Our Courses and Deep Dive sessions are delivered virtually by Autodesk Certified Instructors, Bluebeam Certified Instructors, and experienced Subject Matter Experts. These regularly scheduled sessions are only available to Advantage customers and are not open to the public, meaning you will attend alongside other Advantage members who have registered.

Alternatively, all our courses can be organised privately for your team, following either a standard agenda or a customised curriculum tailored to your specific requirements. Private training sessions are available both virtually and in-person.
