Learn manual and automatic space creation in Revit, using room borders to auto-create spaces, then review and delete non-conditioned spaces via the system browser for accurate thermal load calculations.
Create zones by grouping spaces to share environmental conditioning, energy analysis, and ventilation characteristics, then edit zones to add or remove spaces and adjust set points.
Learn how to generate thermal load reports in Revit MEP Complete, save configurations, and compare detailed reports saved in the Project Explorer to track energy model performance improvements.
Analyze how materials affect heat transfer between exterior and interior spaces with an hourly thermal load analysis in Revit, including solar intensity, window gains, and conduction and convection loads.
Learn to edit duct connectors in Revit MEP, adjusting shape, size, flow configuration, and flow factor to manage pressure loss and air distribution for supply, return, and exhaust air.
Configure hvac piping in Revit mep, distinguishing hvac pipes from other systems; set pipe naming, angles, heights, materials, sizes, fluids, slope, and calculate pressure loss for hydronic networks.
Place air terminals from preloaded or library families, considering host and ceiling or wall mounting. Set height using elevation and plan views to align with the ceiling and architectural geometry.
Learn manual pipe editing in Revit MEP by drawing pipes from scratch, setting middle elevation and diameter, drawing to intersections, adding insulation and valves, and finishing joins.
Learn to analyze and size mechanical pipes in a Revit MEP workflow using the system inspector to inspect flow, pressures, and pipe sizes, with iterative design adjustments.

PART I - Electrical
During the development of the course we will pay attention to the necessary configuration within a Revit project to be able to execute electrical calculations. We will show you how to work with circuits, boards, voltage types and electrical distribution systems. You will learn how to extract data from circuits and create dashboard views that balance design loads.
Finally, we will show you how to create detailed reports of parts, conductors and electrical pipes.

PART II - Plumbing
For plumbing, we will focus on how to properly configure our projects to work with plumbing installations. And we will do it taking into account the collaborative work necessary for multi-disciplinary projects. You will learn to model, design and report models of sanitary facilities under the BIM environment. In the final section, we will pay attention to creating logical duct and pipe systems, creating those elements, and using the Revit engine to design sizes and verify performance.
