Description
This toolkit has two sets of tools: Modeling and Parameters.
Our modeling tools simplify aligning and connecting difficult duct and pipe systems for both MEP design and Fabrication.
Our parameter tools help you stay in touch with your parameters, automatically summing any numeric parameter value, as well as quickly and easily adding parameters to families that appear in a schedule.
About This Version
Version 3.0.1, 5/14/2019Version 3.0 adds two new tools for moving and connecting Fabrication Parts, tools that add welds and couplings based on your button mapping.
We've also upgraded the app for 2020, and provided international bug fixes for the Bloom and Delete System commands.
Hi, Love this Add-In. I hope the developer adds an option to "Connect with Transition Piece".
Your plugin is the best ever hands down. Might I suggest a few more commands and critques.
The Align branch (the one with the "align in 3d" tooltip) that needs to be revised to allow for WYE(45deg) fitting connection not just a Tee connection (90deg) seems to also rotate the pipe to be perpindicular to the main.
A button to correct vertical pipes that get out of the vertical and end up with a slopes like 129022/12" degrees.
WIshlist Item: I see alot of other plugins that create openings for pipes passing thru Structure, but they have got it all wrong. They need to be Fire rated sleeves (category = pipe accessories )(set to break into). I have a Hilti sleeve type that I have been perfecting for over 5 years now that I can send to explain my point.
Thanks for the kind comments! Regarding your first comment, I may have some good news: In the latest version of the tools, the Align Branch Lite command does exactly what you want. The vertical pipe question has come up a number of times now, so that may be our next project! Regarding Pipe sleeves, we have made a custom tool doing exactly that for one of our clients in NY. In fact, we built most of it during a training class for their BIM managers! It's easier than you think. Reach out to your Microdesk sales person if that sounds interesting.
Great job William!!
This is my private account. Its me Tarik! :) Please write me to my private email. I would invite you for business.
Very useful! But it can't work with another language (like Chinese). Can you update for this? Thanks a lot.
The program wouldn't require 4 buttons just for the elbow if you had a way of building in an angle adjustment (maybe snaps to 22.5° increments) so that the user could slope pipe at other angle such as 12"/12" the program could also use a default setting for which pipe type & sytem is used to bloom pipe. Might also want a default setting adjustment for the length of pipe that is created.
Wishlist: A button to rotate a fitting by 22.5° along the sloped pipe it is connected to might be nice. My dynamo version doesn't seem to be keeping the fitting connected.
I wish I had time to learn the SDK I am sure I would have several more recommendations.
An angle adjustment would be great! But not only 22.5°. 15°,30°,45° and 60° is a must have for 3D drafting!
Plesae update for revit 2019. i see tab Microdesk MEP on ribbon, how i can download it?
When is this available for Revit 2019?
Hello Norbert, Good news! The app version 1.1 and later now work with Revit 2017-2019. Enjoy!
Is this app is not run for win 10? Because this app is fixed when is running
Is this available for Revit 2017?
Good news! The latest version of the accelerator support Revit 2017 through 2019! Hope this continues to help your workflows.
Very useful for MEP modeling. Particularly liked the simplicity of the "Sum Parameters" tool.
