have an idea of the HVAC systems of the building. But for developing accurate mechanical drawings which means technical drawings for HVAC systems, Mechanical Drafting Services are hired by clients. Mechanical drafting services are invariably hired by general contractors from engineering outsourcing companies which are normally equipped with a highly experienced and accomplished team of MEP drafters, detailers, engineers and modelers. When mechanical drawings are developed by accomplished CAD drafters there are no chances of them being inaccurate.

Mechanical drawings are powerful source of information to mechanical engineers who can effectively analyze the design of highly complex HVAC systems with their assistance. For developing detailed drawings for heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems, MEP drafters have to refer floor plans and ceiling plans which are developed by architects. Mechanical drawings are integral part of construction drawings which are required by contractors and owners when they go ahead for taking the approval for building permit.

Mechanical drawings includes drawings such as arrangement drawings, assembly drawing, detail drawings, and fabrication drawing etc. Before the actual utilization of mechanical drawings in the development of HVAC systems, they are effectively scrutinized by mechanical engineers.
