Adolfson & Peterson Construction reduces construction waste, rework and delays using Autodesk Navisworks.

 



SHP Leading Design
Aaron Phillips, Director of Technology & BIM Services states that "Both Navisworks and Revit-based software were instrumental in helping to keep construction changes to a minimum and the construction schedule on track."



 
 

Autodesk® Navisworks®

The Autodesk® Navisworks® family of products helps architecture, engineering, and construction teams improve control over the outcome of their projects. With Navisworks solutions, detailed design models can be aggregated and reviewed by all project stakeholders, helping users to benefit from the competitive advantages of building information modeling (BIM) workflows. BIM processes allow team members to explore a project’s key physical and functional characteristics digitally before it is built, helping to deliver projects faster, more economically, and with reduced environmental impact.

There are three software package offerings: NavisWorks Manage, NavisWorks Simulate, and NavisWorks Freedom.

Autodesk Navisworks Manage
Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage software is a comprehensive review solution for analysis, simulation, and coordination of project information.  Multidisciplinary design data can be combined into a single integrated project model for interference management and clash detection.  Navisworks Manage helps design and construction professionals anticipate and avoid potential problems before construction.

Autodesk Navisworks Simulate
Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate software provides advanced tools for reviewing, analysis, simulation, and coordination of project information.  Comprehensive 4D simulation, animation and photorealism capabilities enable the demonstration of design intent and simulation of construction to provide better insight and predictability. Real-time navigation combines with review toolsets to support collaboration among the project team.

Autodesk Navisworks Freedom
Autodesk® Navisworks® Freedom software is the free* viewer for NWD and 3D DWF™ files.  Navisworks Freedom extends the whole-project view to all project stakeholders, helping to improve communication and collaboration.
