Simple Mechanical System in Revit Tutorial

[@stk57thst]

1 year experience here: this video is excellent! After you watch this video, watch a ductwork sizing calculation video, then come back to this and youre almost there...

[@akilzuckerberg1453]

A link or two are appreciated, good Sir

[@harrylee3434]

most useful HVAC video on youtube

[@mounderbellal9368]

You do well man, your tutorials are amazing, very clear, accurate and very very useful.

[@Lichfeldian--Suttonian]

Great video. Nice and clear. I _am_ one of those MEP people and I am struggling to draw ducts in directions other than in the XY plane: I am trying to get the supply and extract/return ducts to bend to two different vertical offsets, but I am yet to get the success of this just as I can with AutoCAD MEP. It’s driving me nuts!

[@jeromesmith6152]

Balkan ur're great, thanks keep doing what you do; a lot of people benefit from ur efforts.

[@andrearantes5171]

Perfect. Can you do an electrical plan...I would love to see how you do it. Thank you

[@LittleOrphanAidsie]

A fan coil or split system would be a better fit for this building. You want the Supply Air near the windows and doors, Return In the middle. With that t bar ceiling you don’t need to duct the R/A back to the unit. The attic acts as a return plenum. The duct and air handler need to be hung higher, allowing a smoother radius in the flex to the register. Also, this system could be installed with spiral duct (round), making it much cheaper to produce. The office needs S/A & R/A as well. The bathroom needs Exhaust and either a supply drop or a transfer duct from the office.

[@zabba7461]

Would you mind breaking down exhaust, supply drop, and transfer duct please?

[@whatevr100]

@@zabba7461 you will typically have an uninsulated exhaust duct in each restroom that will rise up through the roof via variable drive exhaust fan. A supply drop is just a ducted runout coming from your supply main to provide fresh conditioned air to the bathroom. A transfer duct that was mentioned is typically a return air boot above ceiling. That is just an open duct on both ends that penetrates the wall between rooms to allow for the air in the attic space (above ceiling) to move freely between rooms. This also allows rooms to relieve positive pressure caused by the supply air going into the room.

[@dondiedanamoroto1761]

return & supply diffuser must align to the ceiling grid for architectural view. :) I Must say well done and more MEP videos please.

[@BOLTINGSK8ER]

The flex duct needed a minimal length, that's why it wouldn't let you draw it that close.

[@zaneraza4044]

is this a general HVAC thing or a software thing? aka: is the minimal length of the flex duct the same as it would be in real life?

[@hummingbird5964]

@@zaneraza4044 has to be both. making that close of ducts would leave you with minimal room for air to let in easily.

[@gl3ddesignandassemblinginc882]

Very good job, its very good to be flexible, do not stop from teaching the world, you may be from a different country but good deeds and attitudes are universal

[@farllon]

thanks, more Mechanical System please.

[@dimitardimitrov9958]

Thank you for the nice clear video, but if you permit me I would like to correct one big mistake: The "in" of your VAV where suppose to comes the inlet air from the AHU you have connected to the Air terminals instead of the correct duct "out" which is rectangular and stay unused. Keep doing your videos, they are amazing! Regards from another Balkan man! ;)

[@memyadventures2730]

Sir can you explain this in detail about AHU and VAV, what are the function in HVAC for this?

hey man can you please do a video a landscape design..with additional houses, stairs and pathway..the last one that I saw from you, you started from the middle...

[@bimskool]

you actually want to create a system out of the air terminals first, then connect the system to the VAV, then draw the duct. Same worfllow as electrical.

[@mohdayaz1212]

please make more videos on building services.

a vav is not a air unit, it is just a air distributor you should use an RTU or AHU .

[@alexandersalinas6538]

So for one interior bay you only need one supply & one return branch? Also if you have a longitudinal supply branch doesn’t it get smaller after each supply flex disburses ?

[@afeezj4130]

Nice video but how do you determine the number of diffuser and return in a zone or space.

[@LittleOrphanAidsie]

Afeez J the amount of CFM the room requires divided by the amount of registers...

How you finalize location of duct is there any standard dimension we have to maintain from wall or other unit of HVAC. OR It is just free style work all we need to maintained symmetry

how to setup for a small scale area like a split type

[@Grenmaju666]

As for a tutorial for placing mechanical equipment, ductwork, and air terminals, this is decent. However you showed some techniques which display a misunderstanding of the way Revit works: (1) the ductwork cannot be stretched like you did at 6:30 (notice that it did not convert the elbow into a tee, it just overlapped a straight duct across the, now disconnected, elbow) and (2) I'm 90% sure you drew the supply duct from the outside air connection on the air handler (at 6:11 the connectors show that air flow on the left 2 are "in" and the air flow on the right is "out". If I could give a rating, it'd be probably a 3/5 but I had to give a thumbs down for missing those key features of MEP design in a tutorial.

[@elsebethnathalietuxenwissi72]

Where do you have all your ME families from? - I am working in revit 2024, and it ask med for families in all the MEP functions.

[@hamizahzaini6899]

where can i get that m_supply diffuser

[@michaelshonclark]

Your fundamentals of drawing are fine but you selected the wrong piece of HVAC equipment also, you tied your supply air into the primary air side of the VAV it should be on the other secondary side of the VAV. VAV's have to be fed by a larger air handling unit. The larger air handling unit will feed as many as 20 VAV'S. Some large facilities we have done may have up 30 large air handling units and 500 VAV boxes.
