Template configuration for installations in Revit MEP

One of the keys to optimizing your time when using Revit is to have a predefined template that perfectly adapts to your company’s standards and the type of projects you undertake. To do this, we’ll learn how to configure a template to improve and facilitate your modeling work.
The steps to follow to effectively configure our Revit MEP templates are as follows:
- PROJECT BROWSER CONFIGURATION
One of the keys to optimizing your time when using Revit is to have a predefined template that perfectly adapts to your company’s standards and the type of projects you undertake. In this topic, we’ll learn how to configure a template to improve and facilitate your modeling work.
- VISIBILITY OF ELEMENTS AND VIEW RANGES
All of Revit’s default templates have visibility parameters associated with each view, meaning that a certain category of view is hidden or that there are elements that are visible in a certain way.
- GRAPHICS OF MEP SYSTEM FAMILIES
In Revit, when we draw a pipe or duct before modeling it, it is essential to assign it to which system it will belong; we will do this from the properties table.
- CREATING VIEW FILTERS
View filters are configurations created to grant certain parameters to visibility criteria in a view in a very fast way, since they are normally used temporarily while modeling, or they can even have a permanent effect instead of using the typical view templates.
- SAVE CUSTOM TEMPLATE
