Your Complete MEP Solution — From Engineering Analysis to Permit-Ready Construction Documents
We deliver ASHRAE-compliant MEP engineering and clash-free production documentation across all four disciplines. Architecture and MEP are designed and documented in a single federated Revit model — no separate consultant handoffs, no coordination gaps.
Architecture + MEP. One Team. One Model. No Gaps.
Most arch firms manage arch and MEP as two separate workstreams — which means coordination issues, schedule delays, and RFIs that cost time and money. At BIM Heroes, architecture and MEP are designed and documented in a single federated Revit model — so clashes are caught before they become construction change orders.
Engineering Analysis & System Design
We perform full engineering design across all MEP disciplines — performing load calculations, equipment selection, and system design that meet code requirements and project performance goals.
Mechanical / HVAC
We design HVAC systems to ASHRAE 62.1 ventilation requirements and ASHRAE 90.1 energy efficiency standards — from load calculations through equipment sizing and duct layout.
WHAT WE DESIGN
- Heating and cooling load calculations (Manual J / ASHRAE)
- HVAC system selection and equipment sizing
- Duct layout drawings coordinated with architectural RCPs before CD phase begins
- Energy code compliance (Title 24, ASHRAE 90.1, IECC)
DESIGN SOFTWARE
- Revit MEP
- AutoCAD MEP
- Trace 700
- HAP
- Trane CHVAC
Electrical
We design NEC-compliant electrical systems — panel schedules, power distribution, lighting design, and emergency power — sized to local utility requirements and energy codes.
WHAT WE DESIGN
- Panel schedule calculations and panel sizing (NEC compliant)
- Power distribution, lighting design and controls
- Emergency power, line voltage and fire alarm systems
- Title 24 / IECC energy compliance for lighting power density
DESIGN SOFTWARE
- Revit MEP
- AutoCAD MEP
- AGi32
Plumbing
We design plumbing systems to IPC and local plumbing code requirements — covering water supply, sanitary, storm drainage, and fixture schedule documentation.
WHAT WE DESIGN
- Domestic water supply and distribution systems
- Sanitary drainage, waste and vent systems (IPC compliant)
- Storm drainage calculations and pipe sizing
- Fixture unit calculations and pipe sizing schedules
DESIGN SOFTWARE
- Revit MEP
- AutoCAD MEP
Fire Protection
We design NFPA 13 sprinkler systems with hydraulic calculations and fire alarm layouts — with AHJ submittal documentation and IBC Chapter 9 occupancy-based compliance.
WHAT WE DESIGN
- Sprinkler system design and hydraulic calculations (NFPA 13)
- Fire alarm system design and device layout
- Fire suppression system layouts for kitchen and special hazards
- IBC Chapter 9 occupancy-based fire protection compliance
DESIGN SOFTWARE
- Revit MEP
- AutoCAD MEP
- SprinkCAD
Construction Documents & Coordination
We produce coordinated, clash-free MEP construction documents that meet contractor expectations and pass plan review — delivered in Revit, AutoCAD, or your preferred format.
MEP Construction Documents
We produce complete permit-ready, contractor-ready MEP drawing sets across all disciplines — formatted to match architectural sheet set and AHJ requirements.
DELIVERABLES

- Delivered in PDF (Bluebeam-ready), native Revit, and DWG
TOOLS
- Revit MEP
- AutoCAD MEP
- Bluebeam
MEP Coordination
We coordinate MEP systems against each other and against architectural and structural models — resolving clashes before they become expensive field problems.
DELIVERABLES
- Coordination between mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, and structural systems

- Clash report with visual callouts, severity ratings, and recommended resolutions
- Updated model with resolved clashes before CD issue
TOOLS
- Navisworks
- Revit MEP
- BIM 360 / BIM Collaborate
MEP Revit Modeling
We build fully coordinated MEP Revit models at LOD 300–350 — structured for quantity takeoffs, equipment procurement, and downstream contractor use.
DELIVERABLES
- Fully coordinated MEPRevit models at LOD 300–350
- Accurate system routing, equipment placement, and parametric families
- Equipment schedules, load schedules, and annotation for downstream contractor use
TOOLS
- Revit MEP
- BIM 360
- ACC
Our MEP Engagement Process
A structured five-step process emphasizing technical accuracy and interdisciplinary coordination.
Project Intake
We learn your building type, occupancy, jurisdiction, AHJ requirements, code edition, and architectural model status.
Engineering Analysis
We perform load calculations, system sizing, and code compliance checks before any production work begins.
BIM Modeling
We build the MEP Revit model coordinated against your architectural and structural models from day one.
Coordination & Clash Detection
We run Navisworks clash detection and issue prioritized clash reports — resolved before CDs are issued.
CD Delivery
Final MEP drawings delivered in Revit, PDF (Bluebeam-ready), and DWG — formatted to match your architectural sheet set and AHJ requirements.
Building Types We Serve
From healthcare facilities to industrial projects — we adapt our MEP approach to your building type and complexity.
