Import the multi-sheet DWF files into the Navisworks Project Browser.Append all NWC files in Navisworks – creating your multi-discipline model.Repeat this for each project discipline.Export all of the associated 2D sheets, views, elevations, floor plans etc.Export your model as a Navisworks NWC file as usual.In all seriousness, this is a fantastic enhancement, and opens up a host of opportunities. So the question is, 2D or not 2D? Which is best? I don't know about you, but I like to have my cake and eat it, so why choose? Why not have both!Ĭheck out this short video of Navisworks 2012, demonstrating the new 2D and multi-sheet support: Models are great for analyzing coordination between trades, whilst engineering drawings are better suited to the clear presentation style of a 2D sheet.
The reality is that when communicating information, there's no 'one size fits all' – different data is better suited to different formats or mediums. And Navisworks itself has had to become more sophisticated in order to continue to handle these monster datasets.īut for all the developments and advantages of a model-based approach to design, construction documentation is still delivered in 2D… on paper would you believe?! Over the years this data has exploded in terms of size, as CAD and BIM design software continues to become more and more sophisticated. The technology behind Navisworks was first developed in order to handle large models – 3D design data.
