BIM for MEP Systems
Building Information Modeling (BIM) has revolutionized how MEP systems are designed, coordinated, and installed in modern construction.
Unlike traditional drafting, BIM enables engineers to create data-rich 3D models that contain comprehensive information about every component in complex MEP systems.
For MEP professionals, BIM isn't just about visualization—it's about creating intelligent systems with embedded data for analysis, coordination, and lifecycle management.
