If you are a technical or engineering student, a fresh grad, or even an experienced and you are intending to start your career in plumbing design field, then this course is for you!  You will learn plumbing design from scratch, starting with plumbing basic system components: pipes fittings, valves, fixtures,..etc. You will learn also different types of cold-water systems, hot water systems and drainage systems. Then we will go through calculation & sizing methods for water tanks, cold water pipes, then how to design and determine the sizes for hot water pipes, then how to design & determine the sizes for drainage pipes.  Eventually, you will learn how to practically apply your previously learned knowledge, first through AutoCAD complete drafting of a public toilet, then through modelling a full public toilet-from scratch-on Revit 2024 software.

You will learn:

• Solid understanding of plumbing and drainage principles and terminology.

• Drafting and design techniques of plumbing systems using AutoCAD software.

• Mastery of Revit MEP interface, tools, and workflows specific to plumbing and drainage systems.

• How to design and model plumbing (water and drainage systems) for buildings.

• Using Revit MEP for modeling, piping layout, collaboration & clash detections.

• Creating plumbing (water and drainage systems) documentation, such as construction drawings and schedules.

• Application practical theories and industry best practices to real-world plumbing design scenarios.

• Complete package of plumbing design, AutoCAD & Revit application.

• Using AutoCAD LISPS, and Add-ins to greatly enhance your drafting techniques and speed.

• Learning how to model basic architecture elements for the toilet (simple walls, floors, doors,.etc), based on the CAD plans.

• Using Revit plugins to greatly enhance your modeling techniques remarkably.

• Give your design a realistic dimension by adding human figures to your model.

• An overview on modern drainage systems: Sovent sanitary drainage system for high rise buildings & Siphonic storm drainage system.

• In this course, you will find downloadable references and material that will help you through your learning journey and in your future projects as well: Codes & Standards, Supplier Catalogues, AutoCAD Lisps, Revit families & Revit Plugins.
