Navisworks Simulate 2021 - Single-User Subscription

Navisworks Simulate 2021 software provides advanced tools for 5D simulation and powerful features to help you better communicate project information. Multidisciplinary design data created in a broad range of Building Information Modeling (BIM), digital prototype, and process plant design applications can be combined into a single, integrated project model. Comprehensive schedule, quantification, animation, and visualization capabilities assist users in demonstrating design intent and simulating construction, helping to improve insight and predictability. Real-time navigation combines with a review toolset to support collaboration among the project team. Entire project models can be published and viewed in NWD and DWF file formats to provide valuable digital assets from design through construction.

Coordination

• BIM 360 Glue integration - Share data and workflows with BIM 360 projects
• BIM coordination with AutoCAD - Open Navisworks files within AutoCAD. You can share models between BIM 360 Glue and BIM 360 Field to enable connected BIM workflows
• BIM 360 shared views - Create views and share using either Navisworks or BIM 360 Glue. To coordinate Navisworks models with other models in BIM 360 Glue, you must use the Navisworks add-in and use the Glue feature to share Navisworks models to the BIM 360 cloud

Model review

• Aggregate data into a single model - Combine design and construction data into a singular model
• Model simulation and animation - Animate and interact with models
• Supports 60+ file formats - Navisworks supports more than 60 different third-party applications
• Whole-team project review - Provide equal access to explore the whole project view. Open files and combine originated from a variety of CAD applications for a whole-project view of complex models
• Publish and share NWD and DWF files - Publish models in a distributable NWD or DWF file
• More streamlined collaboration - Communicate design intent more effectively and encourage teamwork
• Model file and data aggregation - Combine design and construction data in one model
• Object animation and model simulation - Animate and interact with models. Link object and viewpoint animations to your construction schedules, and enhance the quality of simulations. Add animation to an entire schedule, to individual tasks, or combine these methods
• Measurement tools - Face, snapping, axis locking, and quick zoom. Measure between points on items in the model. All measurements are made in display units
• Redline tool - Gain clarity and control when adding redlines. Mark up viewpoints and clash results with redline annotations

Model simulation and analysis

• 5D project scheduling includes time and cost - Simulate 5D construction schedules and logistics
• Photorealistic model rendering - Develop compelling 3D animations and imagery. Create highly detailed and photorealistic images
• Appearance profiler - Add new depths of clarity by coloring project models based on their properties, and applying them to your entire project
• Smoother interaction with quantification data - Add quantification from an aggregated model

Project viewing

• Cloud rendering - Create renders for whole project models. Use rendering in Autodesk 360 (with select Autodesk products) to create photorealistic images and panoramas from any computer
• Real-time navigation - Explore an integrated project model as it's built
• Autodesk rendering enhancements - Visualization tools integrate with Autodesk products
• Reality capture enhancements - Work with enhanced point cloud integration
