Hi all
I would appreciate some input regarding Revit MEP.
I work for a small company of electrical consultants. Mostly we design low to medium voltage residential and industrial reticulation.
A typical month of drawings would include site drawings showing electrical reticulation IE light positions, cable routes, kiosk and minisub positions, schematic diagrams, very few isometric type drawings and no 3D work. Its all pretty basic stuff.
I work as the draughtsperson in the office while the consultants do the design work, none of which is done via any desktop program, its done manually.
I am not familiar with any of the Autodesk products other than Autocad but have been told that we should possibly look into the Revit MEP package as it may be able to do assist with design work to a degree.
Now for me as the CAD operator I am perfectly comfortable working on Autocad as I have been as with it I can do all that is required of me very easily, but am enquiring about Revit MEP for 2 reasons.
Firstly if it will save the bosses time doing designing then better for us, and secondly Im bored stiff doing this basic work on AC and if we moved to Revit it would allow me to become familiar with the program and add some skills.
So basically Id like to know from those who are familiar with Revit MEP, given the scope of our company is it worth us looking at possibly moving to Revit MEP? Where would the benefit to the company really come in?
Regards
