Duct and Pipe Sizing/Pressure Calculations
Built-in calculators make it possible to perform 
sizing and pressure-loss calculations according  
to industry-standard methods and specifications, 
including the American Society of Heating, 
Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers 
(ASHRAE) fitting loss database. System-sizing tools 
instantly update the size and design parameters 
of duct and pipe elements, without the need for 
file exchanges or third-party applications. Select a 
dynamic sizing method for the ductwork and piping 
systems in your plans using Duct Sizing and Pipe 
Sizing tools. Use the friction, velocity, static regain 
or equal friction sizing method for duct sizing. Use the 
velocity or friction method for pipe sizing.
Duct and Pipe System Modelling
Intuitive layout tools make it easy to modify 
models. As always, Revit MEP software 
automatically updates your model views and 
sheets, helping to maintain document and 
project consistency. Create HVAC systems with 
mechanical functionality providing 3D modelling 
for ductwork and piping. Modify the model easily 
by dragging design elements on the screen in 
almost any view. Modelling can also be done 
in both section and elevation views. All model 
views and sheets update automatically whenever 
a change is made anywhere, for accurate, 
co-ordinated designs and documents at all times. 
HVAC/Electrical Space Design
Communicate design intent visually with room 
colour-fill plans that facilitate client validation 
of design reviews and criteria. All revisions 
and alterations to colour-fill plans are updated 
automatically across your model. Create any 
number of schemes and maintain consistency for 
the duration of your project. Three-dimensional 
modelling for ductwork and piping enables you to 
create HVAC systems that can be clearly shown 
using customer colour schemes for design airflow, 
actual airflow, mechanical zones and more. 
Create electrical colour schemes for power loads, 
lighting per area and more. With colour schemes, 
you no longer need to decipher spreadsheets 
or use coloured pencils on printed plans.
System Inspector (Critical Path) 
Identify and adjust areas of high pressure loss 
in your system quickly, enhancing economy and 
efficiency. Modify fittings, shape or configuration 
interactively, and see the updated static pressure 
loss and changes to flow properties instantly. 
Revit MEP software displays the critical flow path 
for branches, main trunks or entire systems.
Revit
®
 MEP software is an intuitive mechanical, 
electrical and plumbing system design tool 
that enables enhanced co-ordination and rapid 
design within a building information model. 
Optimise systems engineering through data-
driven system sizing and design. Use the building 
performance analysis tools within the Revit MEP 
building information modelling (BIM) software 
application to support sustainable design. 
Accelerate accurate decision-making through faster 
creation of engineering design data and more 
reliable client communications. Using consistent, 
compatible models created in Revit
®
 Architecture 
or Revit
®
 Structure software, you can minimise 
time-consuming errors between mechanical, 
electrical and plumbing (MEP) engineers, 
structural engineers and architects. Automatic 
change management across your evolving design 
and documentation set helps to keep your 
plans consistent and your projects on track.
Experience the BIM advantage by designing 
optimised engineering systems and enhance 
building performance with analysis support. 
Enable appropriate feedback on your 
design’s scope, schedule and budget.
Sustainable Design Support
Revit MEP software provides integrated heating 
and cooling load analysis tools to help you 
perform energy analysis, evaluate system loads 
and produce heating and cooling load reports 
for a project. Provide optimal systems design 
with the same building information model, with 
realistic, real-time design scenarios that help 
improve decision-making. Revit MEP helps to 
minimise design errors and better define your 
project’s overall sustainability strategy. Take full 
advantage of the data-rich Revit MEP model to 
support better decision-making through integrated 
building performance analysis tools. Revit MEP 
also supports the green building extensible markup 
language (gbXML), containing information for 
spaces and zones as well as lighting-fixture element 
data. Export the gbXML file for use with a third-
party analysis application for calculating loads. 
Create high-performance, sustainable buildings 
with extensive analysis of heating and cooling 
load, LEED daylighting, thermal energy and more.
