Everything between the model and the shop floor
Tekton MEP works on MEP Fabrication Parts, native Revit pipe, duct and conduit, or both in the same spool. Here is each tool, what it does, and what it saves you.
Auto Spool
Whole runs, or one view, in a single click.
Pick a run, a set of parts, or everything in a view. Tekton MEP splits the work at equipment and applies your rules as it goes: same service, same level, maximum item count, maximum straight length, and a shipping envelope measured length × width × height. Spools are named from your own naming pattern and ordered by level and position, so the shop reads them the way they were built.
- Breaks at equipment connections automatically
- Rules for service, level, item count and max straight length
- Shipping envelope (L × W × H) so every spool fits on the truck
- Automatic naming from your pattern, in level and position order
Spool Sheets in Seconds
One sheet per spool, built from your layout.
Tekton MEP builds each sheet from the layout you designed: ISO views, plan and elevation section views cropped tight to the spool, bills of material and cut lists, all on your title block. Every part is tagged with its item number, and identical parts share the same number. Generate one sheet while you review a detail, or hundreds across a level in one pass.
- ISO, plan and elevation views cropped tight to the spool
- Bills of material and cut lists placed on your title block
- Every part tagged with its item number — identical parts match
- One sheet or hundreds at a time
Visual Sheet Layout Designer
Drag the sheet the way the shop reads it.
Lay out your title block visually: drag views and schedules into position, choose view directions, scales (including auto-fit), view templates and schedule columns. Save as many layouts as you need — “Pipe – D size”, “Duct – 11×17”, a fabrication set for the shop and a review set for the GC — and pick one each time you run sheets.
- Drag views and schedules into place on your title block
- View directions, scales including auto-fit, view templates
- Choose schedule columns per layout
- Save multiple layouts and pick one at run time
Spool Manager
Every spool in one list, every status in view.
The Spool Manager is the list you keep open all day: search and select, zoom and isolate in the model, rename, renumber, set status and cut sheets. Statuses run Not Started, Drawn, Approved, Fabricated, Shipped and Installed, so the whole team can see where each spool sits — and colour the model by spool or by status before the coordination meeting starts.
- Search, select, zoom, isolate, rename, renumber
- Statuses: Not Started, Drawn, Approved, Fabricated, Shipped, Installed
- Colour the model by spool or by status
- Create sheets straight from the list
Built on Revit Assemblies
Nothing proprietary locked inside the model.
Tekton MEP does not wrap your spools in a private format. Each spool is a native Revit assembly, so Revit's own tools, schedules, filters and tags work on it exactly as you would expect. Hand the model to another detailer, the shop, or the owner, and the spools are still readable Revit content.
- Native Revit assemblies, not a closed format
- Works with Revit schedules, filters, tags and views
- Readable by anyone on the project
- No export step before the shop sees it
Trace Linked Pipe and Duct
Draw native Revit over someone else's model.
Working from an architect's or engineer's model? Pick parts in the link — Revit pipe and duct, MEP fabrication parts, or IFC geometry — and Tekton MEP draws native Revit pipe and duct over them, with matching sizes, system types and fittings. A mapping table handles system and type names automatically, so you are not renaming every link type by hand.
- Traces Revit pipe and duct, fabrication parts, or IFC geometry
- Native Revit pipe, duct and fittings over the link
- Matching sizes and system types
- Mapping table for system and type names
Auto Sleeves
Every penetration found. Every sleeve sized.
Tekton MEP finds every place pipe and duct pass through walls, floors, roofs and beams, including in linked architectural and structural models, and places a sleeve centred on each — sized from the pipe and cut to the wall or slab thickness. Sleeve Count numbers them, groups them by level and size, and exports the list for the shop and the field.
- Walls, floors, roofs and beams — including linked models
- Sleeves centred on the penetration, sized from the pipe
- Cut to the wall or slab thickness
- Sleeve Count numbers, groups by level and size, exports a list
Team Standards
One standard, every project, every detailer.
Save your spool rules and sheet layouts as company defaults, or point Tekton MEP at a network folder so every detailer starts from the same standard. New projects open with your naming pattern, your rules and your title block already in place — no re-setup, no drifting templates.
- Company defaults for spool rules and sheet layouts
- Share standards from a network folder
- Every project starts from the same setup
- No admin rights required to install or update
See it run on your own model
Install the trial, open a project you already know, and spool one run. That is the fastest way to judge it.
