Quality Record

[andreasdraxl]

Hello Reviter,

MEP is a quite complex field. It’s hard find employers are fit in Revit and MEP.
So, I am fit in Revit, but I am an architect. I must develop a white paper, to make a Quality record paper. Does anybody have experiences in this field.
What are the basic-zones to test a MEP- Modell in Revit?
What are the key-areas?
Which advices can I give planers?
…
I have classic “prof-tools” like BIM-link, Family size reporter, but else is on the market?
Maybe a dynamo script? Or other plug-ins they are important to test a data model?

I am glad about to receive any advice !

My first piece of advice? Breathe.

You really need to break your OP down a bit - you are lightly-touching on (too many) tangential topics.

Let's start with:

Q. What do you mean by "a Quality record paper" ?

[andreas2]

... it is a Check-list to walk systematicly thrue the building(f.e. check dataamaount, used families, opening time, worksets,...)
Are there check-lists for MEP stuff. Or maybe plug-ins to test a datamodell in different ways. I am not talking about clashes. Its more regarding the dataquality!
and how can i meantain that.

You could check for things like;
-Do all pipes and ducts have a System associated (Not Undefined)
-Are systems reporting information like flow rates (So they are well connected and can be used for calculations)
-Is there a consistent numbering/coding system for what components are (Eg Uniformat or Uniclass codes in Assembly code parameter)

But yes, MEP is complex and hard to define rules for.
