NavisWorks and Homebuilding

First off, Happy Halloween Eve everyone! Hope to see you all out trick-or-treating tomorrow night.

Here's an email I got today from Jay Moore of Ameri-CAD:

Jason,

Just wanted to say THANKS AGAIN for the quick introduction to NavisWorks.  That bad boy is AWESOME!  I have just started playing with it and can see the massive potential this would bring to the arch/builder world.  Esp if the Navisworks engine could be integrated into Design Review for the 3D data and still retain the great quality of Design Review for the 2D construction docs.

Quick question, can you import a 3ds Max file into Navisworks? [Answer: Yes, in NavisWorks Manage or NavisWorks Review.]

Attached are two screen shots of a house that a structural engineering work placed upon it after being modeled with ACA and VisionREZ.  We’re going to start looking into what we need to do to get the rendered materials to show correctly but even without them this is quite powerful stuff.

Thanks

Jay

 

 

You're right Jay - NavisWorks is pretty incredible. We love it here at Autodesk, and more importantly, our customers do too! Thanks for the email...
