Thus, owners and contractors are looking to dramatically reduce coordination errors. These problems regularly cause as much as 2-4% cost overrun on total project budget. Poor coordination between trades is perhaps the biggest reason for cost and time overruns in buildings. The MEP Modeler uses familiar tools and interface.
Architectural practices and architectural departments of architectural/engineering firms using ArchiCAD can use the Graphisoft MEP Modeler™ to create, edit or import 3D MEP networks (ductwork, piping and cable trays) and coordinate them with the ArchiCAD Virtual Building.
MEP for Architects The MEP (Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing) Modeler is a new extension to ArchiCAD® 12. Routing is available in the floor plan and the 3D window. ArchiCAD’s smart cursor and temporary guide lines provide further help in creating MEP systems from scratch, quickly and easily. Smart MEP Routing The MEP Routing function enables designers to create connected MEP elements with a series of mouse-clicks. When new elements are added to an existing MEP system, they will automatically take on the appropriate connection parameters: shape, diameter as well as width and height values.
MEP Systems The Graphisoft MEP Modeler uses MEP systems to represent a group of MEP elements that are handled together, making the creation and editing of MEP elements much more efficient and consistent.
