MEP System Installation
Ideal and effective MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing) design at its early stages can quickly and devastatingly spiral into a nightmare for installation purposes without the right mechanical design services. In the MEP (M&E) industry, the smooth progression of an MEP consultant’s design into well-coordinated constructible drawings and models is fundamental to the project’s success. Compared with the architectural and structural engineering disciplines, the structure of a typical MEP project team is typically more complex. It comprises an MEP consultant, an MEP contractor, trade-specific sub-contractors (for mechanical, electric, plumbing and fire-fighting disciplines), fabricators and installation and maintenance specialists.
Installation of MEP systems and components is serious business. Some of the crucial challenges for installation include:
-
Ensuring clear and accurate representation of essential areas for MEP installations in room layouts, ceiling heights, location of voids, risers and plant rooms.
-
Using precise and detailed designs that are essential for thermal calculations, such as heat loss and cooling in room layouts, wall constructions, thermal properties, etc.
-
Following detailed graphic design that specifies dimensions, annotations, etc.
-
Installing complex MEP system configurations in cramped places, which is difficult to visualise.
-
An increased cost of installing the system configuration that may result from no MEP coordination.
-
The first sub-contractor working in an area often optimises MEP system routing, requiring expensive rework if this is incompatible with other MEP systems.
