BIM Coordination Services: Importance of Revit and Navisworks for These Services BIM Coordination Services are extremely crucial for verifying and substantiating the coordination issues between the elements of multidiscipline models and for sorting out them which eventually leads to seamless onsite construction. Coordination of multidiscipline models or their elements is required by design and construction professionals to verify whether they can silently coexist in the spaces allotted according to the design or not.

In other words each building element has its specific place in the design which is developed with the cooperation of architect and multidiscipline engineers, and coordination services are executed to identify whether multidiscipline elements are effectively occupying their space or not.


If in case certain changes have been done in the design during modeling process, then there are huge chances that AEC professionals will confront with coordination issues between multidiscipline models. Hence to sort out coordination problems design and construction professionals go ahead with the identification of element collisions which is done through clash detection process. So when it comes to the execution of BIM Coordination Services Navisworks is really crucial for design and construction professionals as it helps them with the identification collision between multidiscipline elements. Element collisions are quite common between the designs of multidiscipline building trades since they are developed separately by different teams. The Clash Detective tool that is accommodated in Navisworks Manage is used for locating design errors or collisions by design and construction professionals when clash tests are performed. The clashes which are located by Clash Detective tool during clash tests are showcased in a multi-column table which is incorporated in the results tab. Within this table clashes are effectively organized by the software. Information about their status which means whether they are approved or not, reviewed or not, resolved or not etc can be effectually identified by design and construction professionals as a icon resides right next to the name of the clash which help in showing its status. Multidiscipline elements are Coordinated in Revit when distinct types of clashes which are identified during clash tests are properly resolved. A coordination model is created by AEC professionals wherein all the multidiscipline elements are successfully integrated.
