Coordinated, consultant-ready MEP shop drawings built from BIM model, that streamline installation, support approvals and reduce site conflicts.
The MEP shop drawing explains the detailed design concept for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems in construction-ready drawings used during the process of installation on-site. The drawings specify location, route, dimensions, elevation, mounting, connection and coordination requirements for efficient work execution by the contractor. These drawings also help to identify any possible clash between building services and architectural/structural elements prior to installation. At Designheed, we offer MEP shop drawing services in UAE to consultants, contractors and developers in the construction industry. Our team creates coordinated and installation-ready drawings as per the project requirements and specifications.
MEP shop drawings are drawings prepared by contractors depicting how mechanical, electrical, plumbing and firefighting systems will be fabricated, installed and supported on site. This includes all precise dimensions, elevations, offsets, supports and equipment placement that is in line with architecture and structure as well as other trades before construction.
Design drawings, on the other hand, convey ideas indicating the system sizes, capacities, and approximations for routing to facilitate tender and approval process. The design drawings are usually not detailed enough to allow fabrication and installation. Shop drawings fill this gap through resolving issues of site clearance, fittings, supports and sequencing so that no clashes and wasteful efforts are involved in installation of the systems.
Since coordinated shop drawings are produced from the BIM model, sections, plans and schedules are in sync with each other. This allows consultants to review only one complete and current set, provide comments once and facilitate quicker approvals.

Duct routing, equipment positioning, and airflow arrangements facilitate effective HVAC installation and coordination. Section, elevation and installation drawings help in resolving ceiling conflict and maintaining necessary clearances.
Pipes routing, diameter, elevations, and connection drawings assist in installing plumbing pipes, chilled water pipes and mechanical pipes. Coordinated drawings help identify crossings, valve placement and accessibility requirements prior to fabrication and installation.
Electrical shop drawings define cable tray routing, conduit pathing, equipment connection and installation clearances within the building. Detailed drawings ensure coordination of electrical services with HVAC, piping, structure and other building services.
Firefighting drawings include sprinkler pipe routing, sprinkler head location, valve and riser arrangement and equipment connection. Coordination drawings assist in proper installation and accessibility requirements of fire services.
These drawings have all three elements (mechanical, electrical and plumbing) together in order to detect clashes, plan services effectively, coordinate the whole process and reduce delays in the construction process.
Precise dimensioning, offsets, spacings and clearance distances for proper construction on site.
Levels of floors, ceiling heights, invert levels and elevations for laying of services for coordinated routing.
Locations of hangers, spacings of supports, fixing and installation details for building services.
Identifiers of equipment, sizes of pipes, dimensions of ducts, circuit references and components.
Detailed sectional and vertical drawings indicating congested zones and installation details.
Sizing of pipes, equipment description, materials and other specifications for accurate MEP procurement and implementation.
Each set is made to your consultant's specifications and therefore goes into review free from unnecessary comments.
Title blocks, sheet size, scale and revision schedule according to your project template.
Drawings are released as numbered submittals with revision and status information for approval.
Line weights, symbols, layers and naming standards according to your BEP and project drawing standards.
PDF for review, DWG for coordination and RVT for native file access.
Each set is made to your consultant's specifications and therefore goes into review free from unnecessary comments.
Consider all approved MEP designs, specifications, architectural background, structural drawings, equipment schedule and project-related installation requirements before preparing the design.
Convert model coordinates information into specific discipline layouts including HVAC, piping, electrical and firefighting layouts with proper routing and elevations.
Include dimensions, levels, tagging, sectioning, support locations, equipment connection and installation details.
Ensure clearances between services, coordinate between models, drawings and discipline, construction issues and coordination issues prior to preparing submission packages.
Prepare PDF, DWG, or RVT packages as per requirement and revise the drawings based on the comments received from consultants.
We undertake the preparation of HVAC shop drawings, including duct layout, location of equipment, and equipment installations, from Dubai to all over UAE.
We produce MEP fabrication drawings, providing accurate dimensions, layout, and assembly instructions to facilitate fabrication and installation of MEP items.
We record the equipment location and system details so that contractors can install, check requirements, and buy their equipment.
We revise the MEP drawings with verified information on-site and installations to record completed systems for turnover and future maintenance.
We quantify the MEP drawings and model coordination to facilitate the process of material estimation, procurement and construction costs management.
