Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing Solutions
HVAC, sheet metal, and piping tools developed by EastCoast CAD/CAM are used by MEP engineers and contractors throughout North America and worldwide. With a full suite of software offered to support every phase of the project from the earliest design stages through fabrication and on-site installation, EastCoast’s motto has been ‘Design to Fabrication’ from the day the company was founded over 25 years ago. By working closely with Autodesk MEP Engineering teams, EastCoast is able to deliver top quality MEP solutions that are integrated inside this industry-leading company’s primary AutoCAD and Revit MEP platforms like no other HVAC or piping software program.
Featured Software:
MEP FABRICATION
EastCoast’s newest software tool, MEP Fabrication, ensures that duct systems drawn in engineered Autodesk Revit MEP or AutoCAD MEP models are automatically converted from generic systems to fully specified systems, with all the critical sizing, elevation, and engineering data retained. The automation process provided by MEP Fabrication produce models that are ready for optimization, the process of making fabrication refinements to specifications and sizing rules, and applying cost estimation data. By eliminating the time-consuming steps of redrawing or creating manual take offs, MEP Fabrication vastly improves the design to fabrication workflow, and enables the use of fully specified and detailed models during the full life-cycle of each building project.

FABRICATION FOR AUTOCAD MEP
Fabrication for AutoCAD MEP brings purpose-built models for HVAC and piping design to CAD. You design with real manufacturer content and have complete control over the detail, manufacturer specifications and shop standards needed to create and fabricate MEP systems. Estimation and reporting tools further ensure that your shop is prepared for jobs of any size or complexity. EastCoast’s innovative software combines model quality representations of manufacturer parts with embedded intelligence within their part properties, to support your project during its full life-cycle - from design through fabrication, to facilities management, and beyond.

DUCTMAKER
DuctMaker is EastCoast’s powerful CAM software solution, providing a fabrication interface used by shop professionals to work with a highly customized duct library that can be shared with the entire design team, including Fabrication for AutoCAD MEP. Within this work environment you can create jobs, generate reports or fitting lists, run pickoffs, and download fittings directly to your cutting system. Ductmaker ensures that detailers design with the same specs and manufacturer defaults that will be used to fabricate duct systems, thereby resolving inconsistencies in fitting design and minimizing sheet metal waste and time. In combination with Fabrication for MEP or on its own, DuctMaker works seamlessly to improve any shop’s process flow. Learn more |
