Civil MEP Designer/Engineer jobs
Full job description :
Job Description - That's a great field to explore! A Civil MEP Designer/Engineer plays a crucial role in construction and infrastructure projects, integrating the various essential systems into the overall civil design.
MEP stands for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing. When combined with Civil Engineering, the role becomes highly interdisciplinary.
Key Responsibilities of a Civil MEP Designer The responsibilities often combine both the design and coordination aspects of the project systems:
1. Design and Calculations System Design: Designing the mechanical (HVAC, fire detection/suppression), electrical (power distribution, lighting), and plumbing (water distribution, drainage, wastewater) systems.
Civil Integration: Ensuring these MEP systems are seamlessly integrated with the civil structures like foundations, roadways, and site grading/drainage.
Load Calculations: Performing detailed calculations for heating and cooling loads, electrical power needs, and hydraulic loads to appropriately size equipment and systems.
Drawing and Documentation: Preparing detailed engineering designs, blueprints, technical specifications, and construction drawings (e.g., grading plans, ductwork layouts, electrical schematics).
2. Coordination and Compliance Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration: Working closely with architects, structural engineers, construction managers, and clients to ensure system functionality, efficiency, and alignment with the overall design.
BIM Coordination: Utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM) tools like Revit MEP and Navisworks to coordinate models and detect clashes between MEP systems and structural elements early in the design phase.
Code Adherence: Ensuring all designs comply with local, national, and international building codes, safety standards, and regulations.
3. Project Execution Site Supervision: Conducting periodic site assessments to monitor quality control and ensure the installation and commissioning of MEP works comply with the design specifications.
Troubleshooting: Identifying and resolving design issues or on-site problems related to MEP systems.
Value Engineering: Providing technical input to optimize system performance, cost savings, and energy efficiency.
Essential Skills and Qualifications :
1. Technical Skills Software Proficiency: High proficiency in CAD software like AutoCAD and Civil 3D, and BIM software like Revit MEP.
System Knowledge: In-depth understanding of HVAC systems, electrical power/lighting, plumbing, drainage, and fire safety principles.
Code Knowledge: Strong knowledge of relevant building codes and safety standards.
Sustainability: Understanding of green building standards and energy-efficient design strategies (e.g., LEED).
2. Qualifications A Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Civil Engineering, or a related engineering discipline is typically required.
Experience: Most roles require 3-5 years of experience in MEP design or a similar position.
Certification: Professional licensure or advanced certifications (e.g., LEED AP, PMP) can be highly beneficial.
3. Soft Skills Problem-Solving: Strong analytical and methodical approach to troubleshooting.
Communication: Excellent verbal and written communication for collaborating with diverse teams and clients.
Project Management: Ability to manage deadlines, budgets, and resources.
Salary Range : 20k to 35k
Exp : 0 to 3 yrs
Edu : Dip / BE / Tech ( Civil )
Location : chennai
