What is MEP Engineering?

MEP Engineering is an integral part of a building project. MEP stands for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing. These are the three aspects linked to every building project that includes design and construction and deal with the setup, functioning, and maintenance of the three major elements of a building project.

Mechanical, Electrical, and plumbing (MEP) design are essential for planning, decision making, accurate documentation, performance- and cost-estimation, construction, and operating/maintaining the resulting facilities.

MEP specifically encompasses the in-depth design and selection of these systems instead of a tradesperson installing equipment. For example, a plumber may select and install a commercial hot water system based on common practice and regulatory codes.

Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems are essential for building services and can have many different functions.
