Built to help structural engineers, detailers, and fabricators create information-rich building models.
Fabrication
Description
What is Fabrication?
Fabrication ESTmep™, CADmep™, and CAMduct™ software provide an integrated set of tools for MEP specialty contractors to estimate, detail, and drive fabrication of mechanical building systems.
- Use manufacturer-specific content to generate better estimates
- Create more accurate detailed models for installation
- Produce sheet metal for fabrication
