Hi @Mohammad_Nawar
First of all, thanks for your your support.
As you know Archi-lab_Grimshaw is no longer available for installation from online packages, i manualy imported “Archi-lab_Grimshaw.dll” as a import library from Dynamo Core Folder.
C:\Users\S01502\AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo Core\1.3\packages\archi-lab.net\bin …here i don’t know, if “Archi-lab_Grimshaw.dll” will always stay here or it was from previous version. I hope this will help others facing similar issues.

Thank you so much for sharing this information and still if you are facing any issue with the code i will be happy to help. beside if want suggest any thing new let me know so we can enhance it
@Mohammad_Nawar
All the codes are now fine. While we will be using this for clash coordination, any problems, suggestions and improvements if any, will definitely share here.
Thanks

Hey @thu.trinh
Can you show me the below path what is include.
C:\Users\Yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Dynamo\Dynamo Revit\1.3\packages\archi-lab.net\bin
it should includes As below if not. then you need to install the required files which is the Archi-lab_grimshaw.
If you still facing the issue let me know.
Hi,
Yes you’re right. It’s missing the Archi-lab_Grimshaw although I dont’ understand how could I “manualy imported “Archi-lab_Grimshaw.dll” as a import library from Dynamo Core Folder” as engineer2369 have written about before. (Because I couldnot find this package from online packages)
Thanks
Hi @thu.trinh
I did some changes in the script so you don’t need anymore for the mentioned package run it and let me know if you still facing any issues.

Hi, There are only 2 issues left. Another question is that does it work better if I let all the clashes seperate instead of grouping them in naviswork file before running the script? Thank you.
Show the warning issue because i believe the views’ name already exist in Revit browser so you need to delete it before running the script, if not this please show the warning message. about the grouping you don’t need to do any grouping or sorting in Navis because this already done in the script. Let me know if you are still facing any issue.
Ok from the message it showing that it’s not reading elements so can you please show me what is reading from IN[0] for python script.
Hi again
I think it’s easier if you could drop the model with the excel file so I can test it directly to understand the problem, Just am curious what the type of the element that you are reading [Element].
New Workflow
hello,
Id like to know how up to date is this script, what are the possibilities of me running it as a newbie to be able to accomplish accurate clash detection.
Also be aware i am working on a very large model. When i run the Revit Clash detector i get about 200 clashes per floor. And i need to narrow it down.
Been studying all different possibilities out there, but there is not short way, id really appreciate to clear this doubts before testing out the script and the possibilities of running it on a large model. Architectural and MEP
Thank you!!
While not “up to date” in that this isn’t showing Dynamo 2.0, it should be usable with some modifications. That said, if you’re a newbie you will want to go though the Dynamo Primer first, in it’s entirety, skipping nothing. Otherwise you’ll spend a lot more time chasing your tail trying to fix problems that are easily resolved with the basic knowledge that provides. The link which @Mohammad_Nawar gave above does outline an improved workflow.
Model size shouldn’t matter too much, but you could limit things to portions of a single floor by using bounding boxes of a given size.
Hello,
Yes ive done the dynamo primer, and other tutorials, still no challenge is real til you face an actual problem.
Right now im running after a week deadline. Its either give this a shot, or go manually correcting ClashDetection with Revit clash detection, meaning a sheet of excel and working on the model side by side.
I just wish to know the possibilities of this being run on a large model without the computer crashing. Maybe i spend a few hours figuring out the script or am i better off going the known long road.
Hi @vvarela13
The created script have been tested on a project with a 63 story (arc vs str) and it worked prefectly as it should be i have updated the script which you can find it in my blog however regarding the size of the model i would highly recommend to edit my workflow as @JacobSmall said to reduce the running time for example you can run the clash category vs category (HVAC duct vs Walls) and fix the issues in the views then run it again HVAC duct vs beams … etc, this way is more effective for your case or you can filer the element per floor as suggested earlier and fix the issue per floor. I don’t mind to help you more ! So do let me know if you have other concerns.
Hello @Mohammad_Nawar and @JacobSmall
I will look into it, and see if i can accomplish to make the script work, i appreciate your comments and willingness to help. I will keep you both updated on the progress.
