AutoDesk Revit MEP 2012 Course on DVD
 Our
Revit MEP 2012 Training DVD consists of over 16 hours of video-based training which teaches users about the key building information modeling (BIM) features and functions used by
mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers. Lessons and demonstrations cover basic and advanced topics including: creating accurate 2D documents and 3D models for BIM, setting up a
project in Revit MEP, managing dynamic schedules and tags, creating and controlling views, creating and managing families and customizing your Revit MEP application.
Our tutorials cover beginner to advanced topics in order for you to be able to utilize this powerful software. Our instructor will take you through the advanced RMEP topics which
include fluid analysis for ducts and piping, lighting design calculations, and power circuiting calculations.
You'll discover tips, tricks, and real-world exercises used by today's professionals. All of the advanced engineering functions available in Autodesk' Revit MEP software are covered in our
training tutorials. Our self-paced training for Rev Mep will help you acquire the skills and knowledge to improve design, documentation, and performance analysis for MEP engineers to
leverage the real power of this software.
