• MEPFP Contractor
• Headquartered in Houston, TX
• Approximately 9,900 Employees Nationwide
• Approximately 37 Companies Nationwide
• Over 100 Office Locations
• Projected Annual Revenue is 2.5 Billion

• Best Practices for Multi-User Setup
• Leverage Basic Graphical Programming
• Create a Basic Script
• Basic Selection Nodes and Different

Methods of Selection

• Manipulate Data for Fabrication Parts

• Dynamo is a Visual Programming Tool That

Runs Within Revit

• It is Open Source
• Works with Pre-Packaged Nodes of Code

Instead of Strictly Raw Code

• Includes Dynamo and Dynamo Player

(easier to execute scripts)

• For Efficiency and Productivity
• Research and Development
• Quick Solution to Issues for OpCo’s
• Prove POC Before Coding for Add-in Buttons

• Place RTS Points on Grid and Offset a Specified Distance
• Code Compliance: P-Trap Checker
• Automation: Place Families
• Place Excavation Box on Underground Plumbing to Calculate

Removal and Fill in a Revit Schedule

• Set Elevation of Fab Parts Based From a Reference Fab Part
• Slope Checker for Gravity Pipe
• Create Sheets With Views by WBS
• Set Pipe Stubup Elevations a Specified Height From F.F.
• Push and Pull Data to and From Excel

• Manage Node and Package Paths

• Browse For Folder

• Strings
• Integers
• Code Blocks
• Boolean
• Data Manipulation by Pull and

Push Nodes

• We Will Retrieve Some Fab Part Data From The Revit

API And Push it Into a Predetermined Parameter

• Use Get and Set Nodes for Parameter Data
• Math (+, -, x, /)
• Retrieve X,Y,Z Locations, Manipulate X,Y,Z and Push

the Data Back Into a Location Point

• Convert Units
• Create And Add View Filters for Fabrication Parts

and Revit System Items

• Array Fabrication Parts With Specified Offsets

• We Will Retrieve The Elevation From a Reference Fab Part

and Set Other Fab Parts to the Same Elevation
