Revit Mep Vs Autocad Mep

Revit MEP is better than AutoCAD MEP for HVAC design for several reasons. Revit MEP supports building information modeling standards and enables 3D design with collision detection. It also automatically updates schedules and helps size mechanical systems. Revit MEP provides additional functionality like scheduling, material takeoff, revision tracking, and 3D building information modeling that AutoCAD lacks. Overall, Revit MEP is more suitable than AutoCAD MEP for both architectural and mechanical HVAC design.

Autocad mep vs revit:


supports designs that conform to BIM (Building Information
Modeling) standards.
Revit MEP is better at scheduling, sizing systems, and
designing in 3D.
Part of this 3D design process includes "collision detection"
which Revit excels at.
Imagine various systems run through your building, Revit
will tell you if they "hit" each other, go through various
structural elements, etc.
Revit can also help balance the loads of your electrical
systems and it's schedules update automatically without
the need of being refreshed.
Revit MEP software will allow for easier sizing of
mechanical systems.
Professional documentation and Help system
Sectioning and detail:Sectioning and detail are essential
features for draftsmen and architectural designers.
Sectioning provides the ability to view what an object
would look like if it were cut in half or through a plane at a
specified angle. Detail provides all the necessary
information for creating or assembling the object which the
drawing represents.
Reality computing, such as laser scanning and
photogrammetry
Reality computing provides the technology for capturing
spatial information from the real world, and for
transforming and digitizing the information. The digitized
information is then used for creating simulations, designs
and other information.
Reality computing makes it possible to create virtual model-

based designs that feed construction, fabrication and


manufacturing processes.
Surface curve extraction tool, and surface analysis
Surface extraction makes it possible to recreate the surface
model of an object by reverse engineering. Surface analysis
uses instruments and spectrometers for characterizing the
surface texture and profile of objects. For example, weather
maps use measured quantities such as sea level pressure,
temperature, and cloud cover in order to define weather
fronts which are displayed in different colors on television
stations.
3D free-form design
3d free-form design enables the designer to know how
surfaces interact and connect to one another. This feature
is very useful for 3D representation of objects and for 3D
printing technology.
Connected design (via the cloud, intranet, mobile workflow)
Connected design enables designers who are not co-located
to share information over computer-based network
connections.
File synchronization, support for many file formats and file
import capability
The ability to share digital information between designers
who are not co-located is an integral element of connected
design.
Materials library provides a library (which can be
expanded) so that designers can obtain information readily.
Customization
In addition to the design features provided by AutoCAD,
Revit provides the following additional features which
AutoCAD lacks: Scheduling, Material takeoff, which enables
the designer to quantify the amount of material (example,
brick) in a design project, Revision tracking,3D BIM

Revit is the future.

From the above reason, we can conclude that AutoCAD MEP is a suitable
for architectural design, while Revit MEP is a suitable for both architectural
and mechanical design.
