I am currently working on a project with a 2 consultants (MEP and structural) and for all of us it is our first time doing a project in Revit. My MEP engineer just asked a question that I wasn't sure how answer - who should place the plumbing fixtures? Since they will be the ones specifying the fixtures, would it make sense for them to place them in the model? Or should they send us the families, we place them and then they can copy/monitor? What is typical? Please advise.....

I've seen it done both ways. If they are developing plans with the fixtures located not just speced then just copy theirs. Saves you the time and money in doing it. Depends if they are sending you updated revit files or not. If they arn't sending you files to work with. Have them locate the fixtures and put it in yourself or you do the layout.
