🚀 AutoCAD MEP – Professional Training Course

Master MEP Systems Design with BIM Workflows

AutoCAD MEP is a specialized toolset for MEP professionals, streamlining construction documentation while integrating BIM workflows. It offers specialized toolsets for Mechanical (HVAC modeling with automated sizing and routing), Electrical (circuiting, panel schedules, and lighting layouts), and Plumbing (sanitary, stormwater, and gas piping).

✨ Key Features

✅ Creates data-rich 3D models with metadata and supports collaboration via Revit or IFC.

✅ Includes Clash Detection to identify hard and soft clashes early, reducing costly rework.

✅ Automated workflows generate schedules, annotations, and symbols, while dynamic blocks speed up repetitive tasks.
