Revit MEP Fundamentals Apr 2025_JHB
To take full advantage of Building Information Modelling, the Autodesk® Revit® MEP Fundamentals training has been designed to teach the concepts and principles of creating 3D parametric models of MEP systems from engineering design through construction documentation.
We introduce students to the software’s user interface and the basic HVAC, electrical, and piping/plumbing components. The training will also familiarise students with the tools required to create, document, and print the parametric model and take the students through the basics of a full MEP project from linking in an architectural model to construction documents.
Topics Covered:
• Working with the Autodesk Revit software’s basic viewing, drawing, and editing commands.
• Inserting and connecting MEP components and using the System Browser.
• Working with linked architectural files.
• Creating spaces and zones so that you can analyse heating and cooling loads.
• Creating HVAC networks with air terminals, mechanical equipment, ducts, and pipes.
• Creating plumbing networks with plumbing fixtures and pipes.
• Creating electrical circuits with electrical equipment, devices, and lighting fixtures and adding cable trays and conduits.
• Creating HVAC and plumbing systems with automatic duct and piping layouts.
• Testing duct, piping and electrical systems.
• Creating and annotating construction documents.
• Adding tags and creating schedules.
• Detailing in the Autodesk Revit software
Course Prerequisites
– Access to the 2023 or 2024 version of the software
– For in-class training we can provide hardware & software
– An understanding of MEP engineering terminology is an asset
