Mep modeler for archicad 237/19/2023 ![]() There are a couple of unique work methods, but nothing big - just have to learn it. ![]() For example, ductwork is for air, but you can define systems for Cooling, Exhaust Air, Heating, Return Air, Recovery Air, etc as desired, all of which would use ductwork, but might display themselves with different pens, materials or line styles - and which would be selectable as systems. The MEP Systems dialog lets you define the various systems to be used in your building and how elements in each system should appear. The MEP Preferences let you pre-define the typical sizes and lengths used for ducts, pipes and cable carriers to make it easier to work with components that correspond to actual building elements. (It is not a general-purpose collision detection feature: it will not detect a column that penetrates a floor, for example.) Only collisions between MEP elements and any other element are detected. Touching elements can be treated as an assembly.Ĭonflicts with other building elements are easily highlighted with a Collision Detection feature that really works well and is cleverly integrated with the markup features of ArchiCAD. Routing and editing is easily done in 3D as well as 2D, and the various parts snap together intelligently.including smart connection 'ports' on both new MEP objects as well as related objects in the standard library (sinks, WCs, washer/dryer, furnace, etc). It's fun to use and has quite a bit of intelligence. I'm really impressed with the MEP Modeler. Personally, I have no real-world MEP experience, so my opinion doesn't carry a lot of weight compared to other people that you may hear from. So, I can start the 'leak' of information here. We've just been released from our non-disclosure. Various people that you know from these forums have been beta testing it for some time, but of course have been sworn to secrecy. ![]() Some time during this coming week, we can anticipate an announcement from Graphisoft concerning their new MEP Modeler for ArchiCAD.
