Course details
Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) design is one of the major components of the BIM chain—and Revit is the design tool of choice for many MEP engineers. This course with instructor Eric Wing focuses on the MEP features in the 2023 version of Revit and is designed for MEP designers with a beginning to intermediate understanding of Revit. You can dive into a specific trade, or take the entire course to learn about all aspects of the vast Revit MEP ecosystem. Learn how to create basic floor plans, design electric circuits and lighting systems, tackle a mechanical project, create plumbing plans, and document your designs for construction and fabrication. Eric keeps the lessons short and focused, so you can get the most value from the time you spend training.
