Revit MEP Families: Smart Connectors & System Intelligence
Build MEP families that connect, calculate, and schedule correctly—every time.
How the Course Is Released (Release Waves) ✔ All waves are included with enrollment. No additional cost.
This course is released as a progressive learning system designed to protect clarity, build confidence, and support real project work. It’s workflow-first training built for real project delivery. The structure reflects how Revit is actually taught and applied inside professional firms—where workflow decisions, sequencing, and validation matter more than memorizing tools. As a Founder, you start with the core foundations at launch and receive all future Waves as they’re released—included with your enrollment—so your workflows hold up under real project pressure.
🔵 Wave 1 — Foundations Core (Start Here)
✔ Available at launch (Feb 10th). MEP Family Editor essentials: reference planes, constraints, connectors, and parameters—build your first production-ready MEP families with correct system logic, visibility control, and clean, reliable behavior for real projects.
🟠 Wave 2 — Production Workflows
✔ Released progressively after launch. MEP-ready standards: a clear type vs instance strategy, shared parameters for tags and schedules, visibility/detail control, nested families, materials, and documentation outputs that stay consistent across views, schedules, and sheets.
🟣 Wave 3 — Mastery & Validation
✔ Released progressively. QA + performance systems: family testing checklists, formula logic, robust flexing, clean geometry strategy, standards planning, advanced behaviors (yes/no options, conditional visibility), and reliable reuse across projects.
Master a Repeatable Revit Family Creation Workflow
✓ Phase 1: The Setup (Why it Matters) Set the right category, reference planes, origins, and parameter strategy so families stay stable and scalable. ✓ Phase 2: The Build (How it Behaves) Model with clean constraints, formulas, visibility control, and (when needed) nested components—so families flex predictably without breaking. ✓ Phase 3: The Output (What you Deliver) Produce tag/schedule-ready families with consistent types, shared parameters, materials, and view- based graphics that stay reliable across views and sheets.
What You’ll Build: A Repeatable Revit Family Creation Workflow
You’ll stop guessing, fixing, and rebuilding families—and start creating stable, predictable, library-ready BIM content that performs reliably in real, coordinated projects. This course gives you a proven system to: • Build families that resize safely and behave predictably • Schedule and tag correctly—every time • Display cleanly in all views and detail levels • Follow one consistent standard your team can reuse No fragile families. No trial-and-error. Just a reliable workflow you can reuse on any project—every time.
Designed for MEP teams (and CAD-to-BIM transitions) who need reliable, calculation-ready Revit families
Does this sound like your Revit Family workflow? 1.- Families break when you change types/sizes—or connectors disconnect 2.- Flow/pressure/voltage data won’t populate (or schedules don’t match the model) 3.- Pipe/duct systems offset, flip, or “ghost” when you connect components 4.- Calculations fail (system warnings, sizing errors, inconsistent results across views) 5.- Your library grows fast—but behavior and data quality stay inconsistent Frequently Asked Questions Q: I already know Revit. Is this course still for me? A: Yes. Most users can model, but MEP families fail under real system pressure—connectors, calculations, and schedulable data. This course teaches the workflow + validation gates so your content behaves reliably in production. Q: I’m coming from AutoCAD. Is this suitable? A: Absolutely. We translate CAD habits into an MEP family mindset—connector discipline, type-driven logic, consistent parameters, and QA—so systems connect cleanly and schedules read correctly. Q: How long does it take to complete? A: Self-paced. The course is released in Waves so you always know what to focus on: ✓ Wave 1: Core foundations + your first production-ready MEP families (connectors + parameters + basic system behavior) ✓ Wave 2–3: Production standards, formulas/lookups, QA testing, and reliable calculations for real projects You’ll keep access to all materials and future Waves, so your family system can grow as your projects and standards evolve.
Stop Rebuilding MEP Families. Start Trusting Your System.
This is what happens when MEP families are built with a validated workflow—accurate connectors, clean schedules, and predictable system behavior on every project.
Master System Connectivity
Cease placing families that look right but don’t connect or calculate. Learn connector logic, system classification, and flow settings so your MEP families behave correctly in real projects.
Standardized Data & Schedules
No more empty schedules and manual data entry. Build parameters and types that push real engineering data into tags, BOMs, and panel schedules—reliably and consistently.
Model Performance with Clean Graphics
Break the bloated families and messy symbols circle. Build lightweight, documentation-ready MEP content with clear LOD control—3D for coordination, 2D for sheets, without performance hits.

Learn from an Autodesk Certified Instructor & BIM Strategist
I’ve spent 25+ years in the AEC industry, and one pattern shows up in every firm: Revit family problems are rarely geometry issues — they’re workflow, standards, and data logic issues. I’m Roger Mujica, an Autodesk Certified Instructor (Silver) and BIM Strategist. I don’t just teach how to build families — I help professionals create production-ready Revit content with clean parameters, predictable behavior, and built-in validation, so schedules stay accurate, tags work correctly, and families scale across real projects without rework.
Proof from Real Revit MEP Family Workflows
See how engineers eliminated broken connectors, failed calculations, and schedule mismatches—by building system-aware, production-ready MEP families.
Disconnect warnings and bad system calculations were killing our deadlines. After this course, our HVAC + piping families use correct connectors and sizing logic—schedules finally match reality.
San Diego, CA
Our library looked ‘complete’ but failed under engineering use. The course gave us a rebuild method for load/flow-driven families—now our content is stable, consistent, and reusable across projects.
Ottawa, Canada
No more disconnect warnings, broken systems, or manual overrides. Our Revit MEP families behave like real systems, and our teams trust the schedules again.
San Francisco, CA
This training showed me how to build families with parameters, formulas, and lookup tables that actually drive behavior. After Roger’s workflow, my content is flexible, predictable, and analysis-ready.
Washington, DC
Most training skips what matters: connectors, system behavior, and reliable calculations. Now I build families that support engineering decisions instead of breaking models during coordination.
Brussels, Belgium
MEP family creation became an engineering process—repeatable, accurate, and scalable. We standardize once, and our models stop falling apart during late-stage changes.
Las Vegas, NV
Retain What You Learn: The "Why-How-What" Method
Most courses fail because they dump thousands of "Features" on you (The What) without context. This course is different. We use the Why-How-What Framework—a proven method for professional memory retention. ✓ The Why: We start every module with the strategy, so you understand the problem we are solving. ✓ The How: We show you the workflow in motion, so you see the sequence and how to build. ✓ The What: Only then do we dive into the settings and checkboxes. This isn't just a tutorial; it's a system for building a professional BIM mindset.
