Use BIM for MEP projects

Module overview

Discover how Building Information Modeling (BIM) is used in Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) design. You’ll be introduced to BIM concepts from an MEP perspective, focusing on coordination, constructability, and collaboration within multidisciplinary project teams. You’ll explore how MEP designers contribute to BIM projects and how shared project standards support coordinated design workflows.

This material is from the course Introduction to BIM for MEP design.

After completing this module, you will be able to:

• Describe the role and benefits of BIM in MEP design.
• Explain how MEP models interact with architectural and structural models.
• Describe early-stage BIM project requirements for MEP workflows.
