MEP Building Systems for ACAD 2005-2008
Print this page for future reference
 The MEP
Building System contains all of the building systems in a
single system as indicated in the menu below.
When loaded into ACAD, all shipping CAE-Link building design systems are
available for use within a single system. The gray areas are not completed
at this time, but will be included in future releases. Watch this site for
updates.
HVAC, Plumbing
Isometrics, Electrical and
Noting are currently available in MEP.
The CL-MEP drop-down menu
provides the means of navigation to each of the systems. Once in a system,
all of the features contained within the system is available for use. Noting
is unique to each system because Noting has it's own layer scheme for each
discipline.
To see the features contained in each system, navigate to the
site for a
discussion of the components identified above. The tools contained in MEP are the
exact same tools used in each of the above systems.
