The ADN Sample AdnRme Migrated to Revit MEP 2015 and on GitHub

Originally Published in

John asked a very relevant question in a comment on the Revit 2015 Update Release 3 that prompted me to complete the rather overdue migration of the ADN Revit MEP sample add-in AdnRme to Revit MEP 2015.

I also took this opportunity to create a GitHub repository for it:

Much easier to share and collaborate on.

The enhanced documentation ↗ now explains all the basics and points to more detailed discussions on everything else there is to know about it:

AdnRme

Revit MEP Sample Application for Revit MEP HVAC and electrical – Demonstrate use of the Revit API for MEP specific tasks.

HVAC

Use of the generic Revit API for HVAC specific tasks, using only standard Revit element properties and parameters:

  • Determine air terminals for each space.
  • Assign flow to the air terminals depending on the space’s calculated supply air flow.
  • Change size of diffuser based on flow.
  • Populate the value of the ‘CFM per SF’ variable on all spaces.
  • Determine unhosted elements.
  • Reset demo.

Electrical

Use of the MEP specific API to traverse an electrical system and display its hierarchy in a tree view.
