Bird Tools - Clash Preventor

Introduction

Coordination is a critical aspect of any construction project, and clashes between elements can lead to costly delays and rework. But with the revolutionary Bird Tools - Clash Preventor plugin for Autodesk Revit, clash prevention has never been easier. This powerful add-in allows users to seamlessly run clash prevention tests while they work, ensuring a smooth and efficient coordination process.

Prevent Clashes Automatically

The Bird Tools - Clash Preventor plugin automatically tests modified elements for clashes, saving users valuable time and effort. With this tool, you no longer have to rely on manual clash detection tests or wait until the end of the project to identify clashes. The plugin constantly monitors your work and alerts you immediately if any clashes are detected, allowing for quick resolution and preventing clashes from occurring in the first place.

Flexible Manual Mode

In addition to automatic clash prevention, Bird Tools - Clash Preventor also offers a manual mode for more control. Users can choose to check selected elements, visible in view elements, or all elements for clashes. This flexibility ensures that you can focus on specific areas of the project or perform comprehensive clash checks, depending on your needs.

Advanced Filtering Options

Filtering elements by category is an essential feature for efficient clash prevention, and Bird Tools - Clash Preventor excels in this aspect. The plugin supports Revit Links and IFC links, allowing you to filter elements from these sources as well. Furthermore, the tool offers parametric filtering, enabling users to filter clashes based on their Revit parameters. This granular filtering capability ensures that you only see the clashes that are relevant to your project, streamlining the clash resolution process.

3D Visualization and Navigation

When clashes are detected, Bird Tools - Clash Preventor empowers users with powerful visualization and navigation tools. The plugin automatically creates a section box around the clashing elements, allowing for a clear 3D visualization of the clash. This feature enables users to understand the clash in context, making it easier to come up with effective solutions. Additionally, the plugin offers the ability to tile all open views for better visualization, further enhancing the clash resolution process.

Effortless Clash Resolution

The built-in Clash Browser in Bird Tools - Clash Preventor simplifies the clash resolution process. This powerful tool generates a comprehensive Clash Report, detailing all clashes and their locations. The Clash Report can be exported to an Excel spreadsheet, providing an easy-to-read format for further analysis and documentation. This feature not only saves time but also ensures that all clashes are documented and tracked effectively. Additionally, the Clash Browser supports Navisworks Report Import, allowing users to import XML clash detection reports generated by Navisworks. This seamless integration between Revit and Navisworks makes clash resolution even more efficient and convenient.

Support for Multiple Revit Versions

Bird Tools - Clash Preventor is designed to cater to a wide range of users, regardless of their Revit version. The plugin supports Revit 2018-2024 editions, ensuring that users from various versions can benefit from its powerful clash prevention capabilities. Whether you are using the latest version or an older one, this plugin has got you covered.
