This training course is intended to introduce users to the software’s user interface and the basic HVAC, and piping/plumbing components that make the Autodesk Revit software a powerful and flexible engineering modeling tool. The course will also familiarize users with the tools required to create floor plans, populate construction documents as well as print the parametric model. The examples and practices are designed to take users through the basics of a Mechanical and Plumbing project from the initial process of linking in various discipline (i.e., architectural, structural) models to generating construction documents.

The Autodesk Revit Fundamentals for Mechanical and Plumbing Systems training course contains in-class exercises that are specific to both disciplines.

Topics Covered in this Autodesk Revit Training Course:

• Utilization of Autodesk Revit software's fundamental commands for viewing, drawing, and editing.
• Incorporating and applying the Project and System browsers as well as the Properties palette.
• Place, load and insert mechanical and plumbing components/families while obtaining an understanding of how to connect equipment and fixtures to duct and piping systems.
• Knowledge of Revit terminology, file-worksharing, and daily workflow utilization.
• Ability to link Revit files along with knowledge of linking/importing CAD, PDF, image files and more.
• Formulating spaces and zones for heating and cooling load calculations and analyzation.
• Designing HVAC networks connecting air terminals, mechanical equipment and generating duct and piping.
• Designing plumbing networks connecting plumbing fixtures and creating pipes.
• Utilizing automatic duct and pipe layout tools for generating HVAC and plumbing network layouts.
• Testing and analyzation of duct and piping systems.
• Populating and annotating construction documents.
• Adding tags and producing schedules.
• Detailing in the Autodesk Revit software.
