Place individual MEP element

Use the Terminal, Accessory, and Equipment tools to place these MEP elements.

1.Activate the tool.

2.On the Floor Plan or 3D: click at any available connection point (indicated by a checkmark cursor).

The elements will connect correctly. The second element will adopt the connection geometry of the first one.

Connection geometry includes (as applicable): shape, height/width, thickness of element wall, connection type (e.g. flanged or not): these are the same parameters you set in the Connections tab page of the element’s MEP Custom Settings tab page.

Flexible Duct

Use this tool to easily create a flexible geometry using spline-type input. Click the port of an existing route element to connect it, or double-click to end input.

The flexible duct will not add transitions at its ends, and connections having different dimensions must be solved in the route.

For editing commands on flexible ducts, see Edit Route graphically.
