5D BIM Software

5D BIM Software Training & Certification Course

Introduction

Navisworks from Autodesk is an architecture, engineering, and construction software used primarily to review 3D and 5D models using Building Information Modeling (BIM) files. While 3D BIM adds parametric design and 4D BIM, time-related information, 5D BIM adds costs to BIM components to assist in the calculation of total project costs. Navisworks opens and combines 5D BIM files for project review, 5D analysis, quantification, and simulation.

Scope of Course

The course helps you use Navisworks to communicate your design intent and simulate construction using 5D BIM models. You will learn to make your cost information, such as schedules, prices, and quantities, accurate and error-free. You will also be learning 5D simulation to identify potential conflicts and detect construction risks early in the planning stage. Training will cover modules including:

  • Model – Based Estimation
  • Review the Model
  • Simulation
  • Clash Detection
  • Estimation 2D and 3D based models
  • Animation
  • Rendering

Career Prospects / Job Roles

The promises of 5D BIM are many, including a vast reduction in time taken to generate a cost estimate, figure out clash detections, and find simulations of a building. However, to ensure that the design intent is communicated clearly and the BIM model is free of errors, the adoption of software like Navisworks is important. Coming from the house of Autodesk, Navisworks coordinates models from different sources, including Revit, AutoCAD, Sketchup, and many other popular software. Students well versed in using Navisworks in a 5D BIM environment can easily find jobs such as:

  • BIM Manager
  • BIM Engineer
  • BIM Planner / Scheduler
  • 5D BIM Specialist
  • BIM Cost Manager
  • BIM Modeler / Coordinator
  • BIM Lead

Suggested Frequently Asked Questions

What is 5D BIM in construction?
5D BIM is an advanced Building Information Modeling process that links 3D design and 4D scheduling with cost data. It helps in generating accurate project budgets, estimating material quantities, and simulating costs throughout the construction lifecycle.
While 3D BIM focuses on design and 4D BIM adds time and scheduling, 5D BIM integrates cost data. This makes it easier to calculate expenses, detect budget risks early, and improve overall project efficiency.
Autodesk Navisworks is widely used to review, combine, and analyze 5D BIM models. It allows project teams to perform model-based estimation, clash detection, simulation, and cost analysis for accurate decision-making.
5D BIM improves cost accuracy by linking real-time prices, schedules, and quantities directly to the model. This reduces errors, prevents budget overruns, and provides transparency for clients and project stakeholders.
A 5D BIM course trains you in model-based estimation, cost analysis, clash detection, simulation, animation, and rendering using Navisworks. You also learn to coordinate BIM files from Revit, AutoCAD, SketchUp, and other platforms.
This course is ideal for architecture and civil engineering students, diploma holders, and professionals who want to enter or advance in BIM coordination, project planning, and cost management roles.
Certified 5D BIM professionals can work as BIM Managers, BIM Engineers, 5D BIM Specialists, Cost Managers, Planners, or Model Coordinators in architecture, construction, and engineering firms.
By simulating construction and running clash detection, 5D BIM identifies conflicts between building components before execution. This minimizes errors, delays, and financial risks, ensuring smoother project delivery.
