A better, faster AutoCAD for MEP
engineering design and documentation.
Increase productivity, accuracy, and coordination—from conceptual design through construction documentation—with AutoCAD® MEP software for mechanical, electrical,
and plumbing (MEP) engineers, designers, and drafters. Seamlessly collaborate with
architects using AutoCAD® or AutoCAD® Architecture software in an intuitive design
environment. Automate production of construction documents using enhanced single-line
and double-line system design and layout tools. And minimize coordination errors
between mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering design teams as well as with
architects and structural engineers.

Key Features in AutoCAD MEP |
Discipline-Specific Tool Palettes
Provide all team members with the right tools for
the job. A discipline-specific engineering tool
palette displays only the tools relevant for the
mechanical, electrical, or plumbing engineering
user, providing consistency across project drawings.
Organize the tool palette to specific company or
individual preferences. Now engineers, designers,
and drafters can easily modify tool palette size,
shape, system type, and much more using
in-place editing. Simply select the tools you
want to change, and modify the common
properties at once, streamlining the design
process and improving productivity.

Properties Palette
The Properties palette enables engineers, designers,
and drafters to specify just the things that are
important to them about the equipment parts
they’re adding. The equipment part name and
size are easy to access at the top of the Properties
palette. Add/modify equipment and devices in one
location through the Properties palette.
Dynamic Dimensions
As engineers, designers, and drafters make
changes to their mechanical, electrical, or plumbing
design, they benefit from the Dynamic Dimensions
feature, which gives real-time feedback on the exact
location of a move or copy change within their
design. This capability facilitates Heads-up Design™
functionality, speeding the production process for
faster delivery of construction documents.

Single-Line Duct Design
Easily move from design development to
construction documents. Lay out mechanical systems
in a single line with unsized parts, and then quickly
convert the layout to a double-line representation of
the system. Benefit from connectivity enhancements
to automatically connect unsized sections of the
design layout to sized sections.

Project Navigator—Drawing Management
Easily manage project drawings, create coordinated
views based on designs, and manage drawing
sheet sets. Since the drawings are managed from
a centralized project directory, everyone on the
design team can consistently access the most
current documents, from project templates to
sections and elevations. New project standards
make it easier to share project information.

Edit-in-View
AutoCAD MEP streamlines design productivity by
providing multiple views from which the user can
modify the MEP systems design. Easily work in a
specific area of the design in any view desired and
not be constrained by working only in plan view.

Templates
Easily create and maintain all company standards
in one location for updating. The templates hold
all layers, system definitions, styles, drawing setup
and plotting preferences, and much more. Use
the template to start all drawings and projects for
companywide consistency. Layer standards and
system definition capabilities have been enhanced.

Make a Seamless Transition from Traditional Drafting Processes
AutoCAD MEP enables engineers, designers, and drafters to move from design to documentation faster through the
automated production of construction documents with
discipline-specific, AutoCAD-based tools.
