IS REVIT 2015 THE SAME AS REVIT MEP

[Anonymous]

Greetings fellow Jedi 😄 Ahem, I am new to revit I just got my revit certified proffesional status, however we didn't go into the structute aspect and MEP AT ALL. Please tell me revit mep isn't a seperate program! Can you please give me some guidance because we only did architecture so it was just a glorified "the Sims" course and I know revit is far more powerful than that and I need to know more!

Many thanks and may the force be with you (Y)

There are different versions of Revit

Revit that is part of the Buildiing Design Suite is an "all in one" Revit that has Arch, Structure, and MEP included in one.

There are also Stand-alone versions:

Revit Architecture

Revit Structure

Revit MEP

There is a new MEP certification exam (took it last week at RTC North America) but it needs a lot of work. I'd hold off until Autodesk can tune it up a little, to actually test a user's MEP skills.

If you don't see the Systems tab on the ribbon, go to application menu (big R in the upper left corner) and then choose Options. Under User Interface, make sure the Systems tabs (piping, mechanical, electrical) are selected.

you can still buy it as a flavor, but we use the complete package. Somehow our MEP guys wind up doing a little architecture sometimes, too....

hope this helps - thanks - db
