In this 40-hour course, students will learn how to design Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems for a Revit Architecture 3D Building Information Model (BIM). Students will create an analytical model for conducting a building performance analysis, define and calculate heating and cooling loads based on spaces and zones within the model, then create HVAC systems, generate HVAC layouts, and create and modify components and ductwork. Students will plan and create plumbing and piping systems, fire protection systems as well as electrical circuits and wiring, all in 3D. We will test the performance of the systems to catch any potential problems such as interferences, inefficient operation or unbalanced electrical loads. Documentation skills students will learn include how to manage the visibility of the elements in the specific views to effortlessly produce plans, elevations, sections, details, callouts and schedules, and assign them to documentation sheets. Because Revit is a change propagation engine, any revision to the model will immediately and automatically show in all views, sheets, and schedules. Prerequisites: Familiarity with Revit Architecture would be very helpful, but not required.
