Clash detection of embedded objects

Clash detection of embedded objects

Idea reported on behalf of Customer:

There is a need to add a possibility of clash detection of embedded objects. ACC does not recognize collision in case of smaller mass object inside bigger mass object. Collision is recognized when the surface of one object touches or goes through surface of another object.

A lot of elbows in concrete foundations that do not get picked up unless you know what to look for. If either side of the pipe is clashing could it automatically include the piece both pipes are connected to?

But what if the fitting is there but there is no pipes because they were already deleted but forgot to delete the fitting (it happens quite a lot). The only way to see this is if the clashing recognize the actual volumes and not the faces... 

This may require more processing power, but maybe this could be an option for special detailed clashes that we can turn on if we really need.
