Review Resolved Clashes

00:01

DEEPAK MAINI: One of the biggest requirements of a good issue

00:04

creation and management system is its ability

00:07

to close the loop.

00:09

Now, when I say close the loop, what I mean

00:11

is, the fact that we were able to action

00:15

the issues in the last objective.

00:17

Now, a good issue management system

00:19

will then let us review whether those actions actually

00:22

resolve the issues or not.

00:24

And if they have, then we are able to close the issues.

00:29

So that's what we are going to do in this objective.

00:31

We are going to review resolve clashes,

00:33

and then we are going to update the issues.

00:40

Now, if you remember in the last objective,

00:42

once we moved the elements in Revit,

00:45

we actually changed the status of the issues to answered.

00:48

When that was done, the member who initiated those issues

00:52

was notified in an email that there was

00:55

a change in the issues status.

00:57

And from there on, that member can then

00:60

review those assigned clashes in the motor coordination module.

01:04

And if those clashes are resolved,

01:07

they can then change the status of those issues

01:09

to closed, which is what I mean by closing the loop.

01:13

So let's take a look at this workflow.

01:16

As you can see, I'm in the clashes tab, assigned sub-tab,

01:21

and I can see the status of these issues changed

01:24

to answered.

01:25

Now, before I click on these issues,

01:28

it is important to have a look at the top right of this window

01:31

and ensure that the last clash check was done

01:35

after the packages were shared.

01:38

Because if this was done before the packages were shared,

01:41

then obviously, you will not see the clashes resolved.

01:45

So I can now go ahead and click on the title of Issue ID number

01:49

two.

01:50

Because I clicked on that issue in the model coordination

01:53

module, it now opens it in the context

01:56

of both the models, which means we

01:59

can see all the elements that were

02:00

clashing in the original issue.

02:04

And you can see here that the clashing elements are no more

02:08

displayed in clash colors.

02:10

Remember those red and green colors?

02:12

These elements are no more displayed in those clashing

02:15

colors, which is a visual clue telling us that the clash has

02:19

been resolved.

02:21

You can also visually check to make sure

02:23

that there's clearance between these elements.

02:28

So in this case, I'm actually satisfied that the clashes have

02:31

been resolved, and now I can go and change

02:33

the status of this issue from answered to closed.

02:38

For that, I'll click on this answered dropdown list.

02:41

I'm going to change this to closed.

02:44

I write the description here.

02:49

I'll click Done.

02:51

And now the status of this issue is changed to closed.

02:56

And I can now repeat the same thing for the other

02:58

to answer the issues as well.

02:60

If I click on this issue now--

03:03

again, these elements are no more

03:04

displayed in clashing colors, And I can change

03:08

the status of this as well.

03:12

As I'm changing the status of this issue,

03:15

the user who changed the original status from open

03:18

to answered is also notified in an email

03:21

that I've changed the status to closed, meaning

03:24

I'm happy with the resolution.

03:26

And lastly, for the third issue, which was issue number four,

03:30

we can do the same thing.

03:34

And as I mentioned earlier, the user

03:36

who changed the status of this issue from open to answered

03:39

is also notified in an email that this issue is now closed,

03:44

which again, is an important part of a good resolution

03:47

process that it keeps everybody in the loop.

03:52

Once we have changed the statuses of these three issues,

03:55

if I go back to the assigned sub-tab,

03:58

I can see the status of these issues changed to closed here.

04:03

So this is the fantastic workflow

04:05

with this model coordination module

04:08

where we can use clashes to create issues.

04:11

We can assign those issues to the individuals

04:13

who need to take actions to resolve them.

04:16

Those individuals can then change the status

04:19

of those issues after taking the action, which

04:22

means that I am then notified that the issues have

04:25

been answered.

04:26

And from there on, I can then review whether those issues

04:29

have been resolved or not.

04:31

And if they are, I can change their status to closed.

04:34

This is where the BIM 360 Model Coordination module combined

04:38

with BIM 360 Document Management module

04:41

creates this really cool issue creation and management process

04:46

that lets you close the loop.

04:49

That's the end of this course.

04:50

I hope you enjoyed it.

04:52

Make sure you try this process with a few other clashing

04:56

elements and then see how you go.

04:58

Have fun.

04:59

Cheers.
