Quickly Verify Pipeline Net Height in Revit MEP
In mechanical and electrical engineering projects, after adjusting the pipelines, it is essential to verify whether the pipelines meet the designed net height requirements. Below is an example using an air duct.
1. Open the floor plan where the check is needed. Under the Annotation tab, select Duct Legend, as shown in the image.
2. Click with the left mouse button at a convenient viewing location, set the color scheme to Default, then click OK, as illustrated below.
3. Select the legend and click Edit Scheme to modify it, as demonstrated in the figure.
4. In the scheme editing interface, create a new scheme named Clear Height Inspection, as shown.
5. In the scheme settings window, under the Color tab, select Bottom Elevation. Then choose By Scope and set the target net height value for the design (for example, 3800). You can adjust the colors according to your preference. Finally, click OK, as displayed below.
6. The net height inspection is now complete. Ducts below 3800 are shown in blue, while those above 3800 appear in purple, as indicated in the image.
Significance: Net height analysis is a challenging yet vital part of the modeling process. By applying the techniques described above, you can efficiently identify areas where net height is insufficient, allowing you to make necessary adjustments and use the space effectively.
