"Turner Construction Company utilized Autodesk Navisworks Manage software as an element in the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process used to complete the new Yankee Stadium project.
As part of its construction management process, known as Virtual Trade Coordination (VTC), Turner used the latest BIM processes and Autodesk Revit-based products and Navisworks Manage software to help streamline workflow and collaboration among subcontractors.
BIM design software was used to create 3D models of every major building component - from architectural and structural elements to HVAC, electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems. With Navisworks Manage software as an essential component of the company’s VTC process, digital data from multiple design and engineering software sources were combined in a single "virtual" model of the stadium that assisted the Turner team and all of the project’s subcontractors in more quickly identifying systems spatial clashes and conflicts to be fixed before the construction phase. This early, coordinated, real-time, whole-project review and analysis helped to minimize costly changes and unexpected scheduling delays in the field."

"Federal stimulus dollars are putting Americans back to work on the nation's highways, but companies behind the scenes are reaping rewards as well.
At Autodesk's Manchester, New Hampshire, office, engineers are hard at work on simulations for shovel ready projects, thanks to the money states now have for infrastructure improvements through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act."

Users of Autodesk Navisworks 2010 may have noticed that window elements do not export correctly from Revit Architecture 2010 and Revit MEP 2010.
It appears that surfaces are exported without openings, windows display opaque and bounding boxes are also making their way across unforeseen. Additionally, three small boxes are created next to the wall - without ever being in the original drawing in the first place.
Root cause to all of this seems to be that non visible, yet present entities, are included.
The issue affects Autodesk Navisworks Manage 2010, Autodesk Navisworks Review 2010, Autodesk Navisworks Simulate 2010 and Autodesk Navisworks Freedom 2010.
The Autodesk Navisworks team has created a HotFix to address this particular problem. Users can download the HotFix here.
Please send us any comments, feedback or suggestions you may have.

Many users encountered this issue after the initial release of Autodesk Design Review 2010.
The application produced undesirable printing results, when printing to PDF. In most cases this included the default print settings of Autodesk Design Review 2010 and it caused large print spooling sizes, low-quality output and even printing errors.
We have now produced a HotFix for Autodesk Design Review 2010, which addresses these issues.
You can download the HotFix and the accompanying ReadMe here.
Please send us any feedback, comments or suggestions you may have.
Thank you.
