Overview

THE AUBIN ACADEMY MASTER SERIES: REVIT MEP 2011, is the ideal book to help readers successfully use Revit MEP. It is a concise manual focused squarely on the rationale and practicality of the Revit MEP process. This book emphasizes the process of creating projects in MEP rather than a series of independent commands and tools. The goal of each lesson is to help readers complete their projects successfully. Tools are introduced together in a focused process with a strong emphasis on "why" as well as "how." The text and exercises seek to give readers a clear sense of the value of the tools, and a clear indication of each tool's potential. THE AUBIN ACADEMY MASTER SERIES: REVIT MEP 2011, is designed to shorten readers' learning curve, raise their comfort level, and most importantly give them real life tested practical advice on the usage of the software to create mechanical, electrical, and plumbing designs and calculations. Empowered with the information within this book, readers will have insight into how to use Revit MEP to create coordinated project models and documentation.
