Features
Create detailed MEP system models with fabrication software
Fabrication CADmep™, Fabrication ESTmep™ and Fabrication CAMduct™ software help you to detail, estimate and fabricate better buildings using Revit.
-
Multipoint routeing for fabrication
Generate fabrication networks using multipoint routeing for fitting and group settings in Revit. (video: 1.11 min.)
-
Sloped piping for fabrication
Create detailed sloped pipes in Revit with part-by-part modelling and slope controls. (video: 56 sec.)
-
Patterns for filter plenum boxes
CID 1206 and CID 1207 support the various types of filter plenum boxes.
(video: 1.01 min.) -
Support for PDF underlays
Accurately input the scale ratio and match duplicate graphics with improved scaling for PDF underlays. (video: 2.00 min.)
-
Fabrication Review software
Access a free viewer to review 3D fabrication models prior to construction without fabrication authoring software.
-
Vertical design line annotation
Vertical annotation for vertical lines enables easier validation of flow rate and velocity on riser sections. (video: 49 sec.)
-
Step-down connectors
Connector capability supports lined duct manufacture.
-
Improved usability and productivity
Streamline model creation and modification.
-
Shared content libraries and databases
Use your Fabrication database from CADmep/CAMduct/ESTmep within Revit building design software to produce detailed models.
-
Design to fabrication
Convert your model with Revit LOD 300 design elements to a detailed model with LOD 400 MEP fabrication parts.
-
Fabrication part placement
Select a service, group and the parts to place in the model with the parts palette.
-
Enhanced editing capabilities
Use routeing exclusions and improved split controls, and resize connected elements to develop your model in less time.
-
Improved hangers
Hangers autosize to the hosted element and automatically attach to structural components, simplifying co-ordination.
-
Revit to estimation/fabrication
Use the Revit fabrication detail model to drive estimation and fabrication downstream for better co-ordination and collaboration.
-
Collaboration and co-ordination
Share models within Revit for multi-user collaboration.
-
Shared content libraries and databases
Use your Fabrication database from CADmep/CAMduct/ESTmep to produce detailed models for estimation and fabrication.
