The Navisworks software suite allows users to import different file formats into one centralized system. It helps visualize and manage data, coordinate projects, and create detailed reports. This software is compatible with many other programs like Revit or AutoCAD. Navisworks provides an interactive environment for viewing and interacting with large models as well as the ability to use 3D views in order to visualize your design.
The Navisworks application can be integrated with Revit to import files from this program. To import a Navisworks file in Revit do the following:
- Go to the Insert tab panel and select the Coordination Model button.
- Click the Add... button In the Coordination Model dialogue, and browse for the file. It should be in the format of .wc or .nwd. and click Open.
- Select the desired positioning option and click Ok.
- The linked Navisworks model will display in your current active view.
- To make sure you do not accidently move it, you should pin it in place right away.
- Now the linked file should be ready to be viewed or navigated within Revit. You can cut sections, rotate etc.
The import process is a one-time thing, so once the file is imported in Revit, you can save it and it will be available for future use. However, it cannot be edited inside Revit, it can only be used for viewing purpose only.
