User manual AUTODESK AUTOCAD MEP BROCHURE

[. . . ] Design systems using real-world parts and equipment, which can be used throughout the fabrication and construction of the building helping to save time and money. Collaborate More Effectively Since most projects require collaboration with professionals from other disciplines, take advantage of architectural and structural plans developed using AutoCAD-based software applications to better coordinate with your extended team. AutoCAD MEP software helps you to minimize interferences prior to construction, allowing greater coordination and collaboration. AutoCAD MEP helps to provide increased drafting productivity, better accuracy and design coordination opportunities for MEP designers and drafters. Fast. Fastest workflow Help improve design accuracy by automating repetitive drafting tasks, reviewing and checking your designs, and simulating sizing and system balances. Familiar AutoCAD Environment AutoCAD MEP is built on AutoCAD®, providing you with access to all of the commands you expect. [. . . ] For example, check your HVAC design calculations based on friction loss or velocity to assess performance for a particular area or room. Also use the display theme By Pressure Class to visually show the high, medium, and low pressure per piping class to more easily identify potential design flaws. Synchronized Schedules Designers and drafters can schedule engineering system data, calculate values, and use new table styles to lay out room and analysis schedules. Schedules are automatically updated as the design changes, assisting in the reduction of errors. Create schedules as you lay out your design, and see the schedule populate automatically, helping to save time. You can create schedules with varying levels of detail by defining and attaching sets of properties to object styles or to individual objects and then extracting and displaying the data in a schedule table. Seamless Sections and Elevations No longer wait until the end of your design process to create sections and elevations, instead, quickly create them at any time. You can control the size and shape of the section you generate and assign materials to the section for an optimal visual representation of the sectioned objects. Drawing Management The Drawing Management feature formalizes and automates the processes related to building system design and documentation. The feature provides automated tools that aid in the management, viewing, and construction of your building systems. When your project files are managed with this feature, you have greater consistency in all aspects of the project, and everyone on the design team has a centralized project environment for accessing the most current documents. Powerful linking features help enable that source files can be distributed over many different locations on your computer or on a network, enabling different people to work simultaneously on the same project. Using AutoCAD MEP with its powerful visual design coordination capabilities, we were able to lay out these extremely complex mechanical rooms-- easily--knowing ahead of time whether there was an interference. --Jean Abi Aad Corporate Engineering Manager Kharafi National Choose your Gear AutoCAD MEP software is an essential element in a complementary, comprehensive Autodesk engineering solution for MEP professionals. Design and Documentation AutoCAD MEP AutoCAD® MEP software is the AutoCAD® software for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing designers and drafters. Creation and coordination of construction documents is more efficient with AutoCAD MEP's more intuitive systems drawing and design tools. AutoCAD Drive your projects from concept to completion with the powerful AutoCAD-based documentation tools. Work more efficiently with automation, management, and editing tools that minimize repetitive tasks and speed your time to completion. AutoCAD® software is interoperable with AutoCAD MEP software. Collaboration Autodesk Navisworks Manage Autodesk® Navisworks® software solutions help enable project design and building professionals to unite their contributions into a single, synchronized building information model. By helping enable team members to more reliably share, combine, review, and correct detailed 3D design models of any size or format, Autodesk Navisworks solutions are at the heart of your design workflow. Autodesk Seek Powerful, dynamic Autodesk® Seek web service replaces bulky paper catalogs and static online directories. Connect architects and engineers with building product manufacturers. Streamline project workflows by reducing the hassle of time-consuming searches or the need to design a product or component for each new project.
