Accurate, Coordinated & Constructible MEP Drawings That Drive Project Success

At Built in BIM, we deliver detailed, fabrication-ready MEP shop drawings that help contractors, fabricators, and engineers bring complex designs to life with precision and efficiency. Our MEP shop drawing services are fully coordinated, clash-free, and aligned with international codes and project-specific standards.

We specialize in producing high-quality installation drawings for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems based on coordinated BIM models. These drawings bridge the gap between design intent and on-site execution, enabling smoother installation, reduced rework, and improved construction timelines.

Our MEP Shop Drawing Services Include:

Mechanical Shop Drawings

HVAC ductwork layouts, pipe routing, equipment installation plans, and insulation details prepared for easy on-site implementation.

Electrical Shop Drawings

Layouts for lighting, power, panel schedules, cable trays, and switchgear—ensuring clear electrical routing and compliance with standards.

Plumbing Shop Drawings

Drainage, water supply, sanitary and vent system drawings with accurate pipe sizing, slope calculations, and fixture coordination.

Coordinated Composite Drawings

Overlay of all MEP disciplines (and structural) to detect and resolve interferences before reaching the site.

Spool Drawings

Fabrication-ready spool maps for prefabrication of duct and piping assemblies.

As-Built Drawings

Updated documentation post-installation reflecting the final MEP system layout for facility management and operations.

Penetration & Sleeve Drawings

Accurate placement for floor/wall penetrations and sleeves, aligned with civil and architectural models.

Point Layout Drawings

Creation of field-friendly layout drawings and files compatible with Total Station equipment.

Code-Compliant Documentation

We ensure our drawings adhere to local and international building codes like ASHRAE, IPC, NEC, and others.

LOD 300 to LOD 500 Deliverables

Delivering shop drawings tailored to your required Level of Development (LOD), ready for fabrication or installation.
