Types of MEP Drawings

-
MEP stands for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing in reference to Construction Industry. It is the field of engineering that focuses on building safe, working structures for human use. The mechanical part of engineering refers to HVAC(heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning) systems. Electrical part refers to the power supply and plumbing part focuses on water supply and drainage of wastewater. 

Construction MEP Drawings are an aid to visually communicate how something functions or is constructed. It is useful for communicating ideas in industry and engineering. In order to make these drawings understandable, a designer uses familiar symbols, units of measurement, and notation systems.
Different types of Construction MEP drawings:-

    • Penetration Drawings
Penetration Drawings are used for mechanical, electrical or plumbing items that pass through an opening in a wall or floor such as pipes, electrical conduits, electrical cables, and ducts. These items are carefully pierced into the wall or floor as they create a space between the penetrant and surroundings. These drawings provide all necessary views with proper clearance to get a comprehensible access to it on site. 

    • MEP Shop Drawing Detailing
MEP Shop Drawing Detailing is created with dimensions, elevations, and annotations. Shop drawings serve an easy way for workshop fabrication and onsite installation. These drawings are made using standard codes applicable to the project.

    • Block-out and Sleeve Drawings
Block-out drawings provide precise details on where to leave space for floor and ceiling cutouts for various MEP systems. These drawings are useful for cement and steel contractors. Sleeve drawings are used to make sure the holes left between the walls and floor are placed properly for piping and ductwork.

    • Pipe Spool Drawings
A spool is an assembly of components that are prepared in a workshop and then shipped to the installation site. A pipe spool drawing provides information required by fabrication workshop to accurately assemble the spool.

    • Coordination Drawings
The risk of interference is highest for projects having intense mechanical, electrical and plumbing requirements. Coordination drawings are used to avoid physical conflicts in the layout of different types of equipment like ductwork and piping. These drawings are a prerequisite for initiating any construction work.  

    • As-Built Drawings
During a building project, it is common for changes to be made that arise on site. Thus, as-built drawings are prepared to reflect what has been actually built. Generally, a contractor will mark up the changes that are made on-site.

How LOD450 and 5D BIM services are interconnected with one another for pre-construction and early design stages for the construction project?

  The process of pre-construction and conceptual design process is a long seen work that cannot be avoided and it is due to the size of the project. In the past, the traditional method, as well as early architectural concepts and designs, were known to be a lengthier process and for the same, the discussion for the same too was taking a lot of time. Not only this but the owner and architect both need to have a discussion on various channels and also if there are any changes required to be done to an existing facility.   It is very much necessary that before the start of the project there should be an early conversation between the two parties as this stage is the reason for any project's success. This is where the task of 5D BIM Services comes into the picture. This stage of work helps in evaluating the conceptual design, and then at the later stage assessing the overall project's budget and its schedule. Thus, this is the process in which the building needs to assign the work

  MEP coordination services or mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services share an important role in the overall BIM services. The process of BIM coordination services is to streamline the work with the adherence of required software and tools. The overall construction work of the building undergoes with a lot many stages i.e from the forming of the building fabric, its structure, to its external envelopes like steel, concrete, panel, and a lot more. While constructing a building HVAC services too need to be taken into consideration, this is also an important aspect in the construction field.   The overall process of MEP coordination services is not that simple as it seems in the images or its drawings as that shared online. The complete creation, as well as undertaking of the MEP BIM Coordination Services, is a success and this is possible only with the help of outsourcing MEP coordination services with the leading MEP coordination services provider. The MEP team is comprising of h

The building process involves more than just pouring concrete and erecting walls. It's a multifaceted process that calls for careful planning, inventiveness, and attention to detail. Architectural design and detailing services are essential to this procedure. To put it simply, this is the art and science of drawing up the specifications and drawings that direct a building's construction. We will discuss the value of architectural design and detailing services in building projects in this blog, as well as the reasons why these services are necessary to produce structures that are aesthetically beautiful, safe, and useful. What is Architectural Drafting And Detailing? The process of producing intricate technical drawings and plans for a building or other structure is known as architectural drafting and detailing. Architects, engineers, and construction workers can use these drawings as a guide to better understand how the structure should be built. Creating accurate two-dimension
