Revit MEP: Designing Water, Sewerage, and Heating Systems

Designing modern building services requires precise digital coordination and modeling. This text-based guide helps you transition from traditional drafting to building information modeling (BIM) for plumbing and heating systems. By reading this course and working through the practical design scenarios, you will develop the skills to configure pipe systems, model water supply and heating networks, and generate accurate schedules directly from your models. What you'll learn: - Understand foundational BIM concepts and the Revit MEP interface. - Configure pipe types, routing preferences, and system classifications for water and heating. - Model domestic cold and hot water networks alongside drainage systems. - Design heating layouts, including radiators, piping connectors, and equipment placement. - Apply shared parameters and create automated schedules for equipment and materials. - Coordinate your engineering designs with architectural models to identify and resolve clashes. The course starts with fundamental Revit setup and terminology, guiding you step-by-step through pipe routing, equipment placement, and documentation workflows. You will practice through written exercises designed to simulate real-world engineering projects. This course is designed for beginner design engineers, architects, and students looking to enter the field of MEP design. No prior Revit experience is required.
