Revit MEP Essentials

Duration: 3 Days*

Designed for: New Autodesk Revit MEP users, users of AutoCAD MEP, or
other Autodesk software users who want to learn essential elements of
Autodesk Revit MEP

Prerequisites: MEP engineering design, drafting, or engineering experience

is highly recommended. No previous CAD experience is necessary. A
working knowledge of Microsoft supporting systems.

REF. AD46

COURSE DESCRIPTION
Learn about building information modelling and the tools for parametric MEP systems design and documentation
using Autodesk Revit® MEP. Begin the three-day guide by learning the fundamental features of Autodesk Revit MEP,
then progressing through schematic design, system analysis and construction documentation, and finishing with
design visualisation.

COURSE OBJECTIVES
To teach users the concepts of building information modelling and to introduce the tools for parametric engineering
design and documentation using Autodesk Revit MEP.

Users should be able to complete their first Autodesk Revit MEP project after completing this class.
