Working with Catalog-Based Content
Building systems are typically assembled from fabricated, off-the-shelf components. The part catalogs included
with AutoCAD MEP offer an extensive collection of parts for use during design. You can query the part
catalogs to assist with part selection, retrieve parts for integration into your designs, and store parts you
create in a catalog for future use.
Parts of a mechanical system
Parts of an electrical system
Parts of a plumbing system
The following part catalogs are available in both metric and imperial units:
■ Cable Tray
■ Conduit
■ Duct
■ Multi-view Parts for all building systems disciplines
■ Pipe
The software also includes style-based content for devices, panels, plumbing fittings, valves, and schematic
symbols.
