AUTOCAD MEP

-Familiar AutoCAD Environment

AutoCAD MEP is built on AutoCAD®, providing
you with access to all of the commands you expect. Protect your investment in training whilst accessing discipline specific tools at your own pace.

-Industry-Based or Task-Based Workspaces

If you work in a multidisciplinary firm and perform
several different design tasks, such as the design
of HVAC and piping systems, workspaces are
particularly useful. You can use them to save user
interface configurations that are tailored to specific
tasks. Once the workspaces are created, you can
quickly switch between them as needed.

-Schematic Design

More easily create riser diagrams and schematic
plans with enhanced schematic tool palettes
that logically group commonly used tools. The
Properties palette provides easier schematic object
configurations. Convert existing AutoCAD blocks to
schematic symbols for quick use in schematic design.

-Fabrication for MEP Contractors

With smoother integration of fabrication partner
tools into AutoCAD MEP software, MEP designers,
drafters and contractors can leverage their
AutoCAD MEP design for the fabrication of sheet
metal, plumbing, and piping making it easier to
create shop drawings.

-Single/Double-Line Design

Automate your worflow by creating construction
documents more efficiently with single line for
design development and convert automatically to
double line for construction documents. Lay out
mechanical systems in single line with unsized
parts early in the design process, and then use
duct-sizing tools and convert the layout to double
line. Enhanced sizing tools help to increase drafting
productivity when moving from design development to construction documentation.

-Smart Annotation of Objects

Annotate once for all scales. Annotative text
and symbols automatically change for each view
based on the scale. You can annotate objects with
labels that consist of text or block definitions.
The information in the label comes from object
properties, such as connection size.
