MEP 2009. We hope you enjoy learning and using this systems modeling tool. Revit MEP is designed
to accommodate various ways of working, so that you can concentrate on creating systems plans rather than on adapting
your methodology to the demands of the software. In this brief overview, you learn how to use the features of Revit MEP
to design, change, and document the mechanical, electrical, piping, plumbing, and fire protection systems for your building
projects.
Introduction
Revit MEP provides tools and component families to help you design the systems in your building projects.
Air systems include equipment, such as Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes, to move air through the system
and terminal devices (air diffusers, returns). Rigid and flexible ducts complete the system, providing the
paths for air distribution. Automated tools let you size and select a layout path and create the ductwork
in the systems.
Electrical systems provides common electrical components and lighting fixtures. You use automated
tools to create circuits for power, communications, alarm, data, and telephone systems, and assign them
to panels. Similar tools let you designate switches that control the lighting systems in a project.
Piping systems include equipment, such as boilers and fin-tube radiators with piping connecting
components and providing the paths for fluid distribution in supply, return, and other systems. The
layout path tools let you automatically create the piping in a project.
Plumbing systems include plumbing fixtures, such as toilets and sinks. You use automatic layout tools
to create piping to connect components in domestic hot and cold water systems, and apply slope to
piping in sanitary waste systems.
Fire protection systems provide a variety of sprinklers to help you design systems that meet NFPA13
standards. You can use the same automated layout tools for piping connecting fire protection components
to provide paths for wet and dry systems.
