DynamoMEP is a Dynamo package for working with MEP elements in Revit.
DynamoMEP is an Open-Source project available on github and Dynamo’s package manager. The package started with nodes for creating room and MEP Spaces, and will be improved over time.
The project is being developed in C# using Visual Studio, and will work with Dynamo 2.0 and forward, and Revit 2016 and forward. The project mostly consists of zero-touch nodes with a few custom ones.
Load the dll in Dynamo or use Dynamo's package manager.
- .NET Framework 4.8 and Visual Studio Community
