Modeling Plumbing Systems in Revit MEP
In this Modeling Plumbing Systems in Revit MEP, we’ll explore how to model a plumbing system using Revit MEP. We’ll begin by placing some plumbing fixtures through out a simple residential project. Once fixtures are in place, we’ll then set two supply systems; the first a hot water supply and the second a cold water supply. From there we’ll learn how to model drains, vents, and stacks tying the entire system together. After working through this tutorial, you’ll gain a solid understanding of how to create a basic plumbing system and you should be able to overcome a lot of the obstacles that modeling a 3-D plumbing system may throw at you. Software required: Revit 2014.

Revit MEP software is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) solution for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineers. It provides an integrated design, analysis, and documentation tool to support building systems projects from concept through construction.
What you can do with Revit ?
- Integrated design
Streamline the engineering design process with Revit. Use a single model to enhance the communication of design intent, before construction begins.
- Analysis
Conduct simulations and interference detection earlier in the design process. Use conceptual energy analysis data for engineering-driven calculations.
- Documentation
Design, model, and document building systems in the context of a full building information model, including architectural and structural components.
- Fabrication
Model for MEP fabrication with tools that automate the fabrication model layout. Prepare a model for detailed coordination of fabrication and installation.
