Introduction — MEP Tools

What Plant Room Studio does, who it is for, and how the docs are organised.

Plant Room Studio (tool code MEP-01) is a 2D/3D layout tool for MEP plant rooms. You draw the room shell, drop equipment from a built-in library — MV switchgear and transformers, LV panels, UPS/battery/generator backup, pumps, AHUs and other mechanical plant, and ELV/ICT racks and panels — and get live clearance validation as you work. Finished layouts export to DXF, IFC, PDF, or PNG/JPG.

Who it is for

MEP engineers and coordinators laying out electrical rooms, plant rooms, and ICT/data spaces who need a fast way to check that equipment fits and that maintenance clearances are respected — before committing the layout to CAD or BIM.

Library values are indicative, not certified. Every built-in equipment item ships with typical footprint, clearance, weight, and heat-load figures drawn from common manufacturer datasheets. They are flagged as defaults and are not approved for project use — always verify against your actual equipment schedule and your authority having jurisdiction.
