MEP Automation

Automate design, analysis, and coordination for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing systems — boost efficiency and accuracy across Revit® MEP workflows.

Integrated MEP design. Intelligent automation.

BIMix MEP automation tools help engineers model, calculate, and coordinate faster — from HVAC sizing to electrical BOQs and plumbing layouts. Each tool minimizes manual work while maintaining Revit-native precision.

Our suite covers mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, integrating seamlessly into Revit for automated sizing, load calculations, coordination openings, documentation, and performance reporting.

MEP Automation

What we automate for MEP engineers

Fire Pipe Sizing

Calculates and sizes fire protection piping systems according to NFPA and local standards with fully automated flow, pressure, and hydraulic checks.

  • Hydraulic calculations for sprinklers and hydrants.
  • Checks compliance with flow and pressure limits.
  • Generates detailed summary tables automatically.

MEP Hanger Placement

Automatically generates hangers and supports for ducts, pipes, and trays based on spacing and clearance rules.

  • Creates hangers with accurate offsets and spacing.
  • Coordinates with structural framing models.
  • Prevents clashes using geometry validation.

Automatic Openings

Detects intersections between MEP and structural elements, placing coordinated openings with proper tolerances.

  • Supports walls, floors, and ceilings.
  • Works with linked Revit models.
  • Auto-updates when MEP routes change.

HVAC Selector

Performs psychrometric and equipment selection within Revit, linking directly to model parameters and design schedules.

  • Generates equipment selection reports.
  • Integrates with Revit for validation and export.
  • Supports multi-equipment comparisons.

Our automation process

1

Assess your MEP workflow

We evaluate how your teams model, size, and coordinate systems — identifying automation opportunities.

2

Define logic & standards

We configure rules, naming conventions, and calculation methods aligned with your project standards.

3

Develop & integrate tools

Our engineers create Revit-native automation plugins with C#, Dynamo, or Python for seamless workflows.

4

Deploy, train, and support

We handle rollout, documentation, and user training to ensure long-term adoption and ROI.

Real-world results

Automated Fire Protection Design for a Commercial Tower

Challenge: Engineers manually sized hundreds of fire protection pipes, causing delays and frequent recalculations.

Solution: The Fire Pipe Sizing tool automated pipe sizing and hydraulic balancing per NFPA, embedding all results directly in Revit schedules.

Outcome:

  • Reduced fire network sizing time by 80%
  • Improved system balance and design compliance
  • Eliminated manual recalculations during revisions
