High-rise commercial and residential buildings are wonderful sights to behold. With a height that reaches the firmament, these marvelous giants challenge every architectural feat and engineering technology that mankind has invented. However, while architects are often well-known and celebrated by architectural students around the world, we have seemingly forgotten another kind of unsung heroes who have considerably contributed to the success of these buildings. These heroes are the MEP engineers.
Their name might sound strange to you, but if architects create the shapes, contours, and glamour of a building, then MEP engineers will fashion its skeleton and veins. MEP engineers play a very important role in construction projects.
What MEP Stands For
The word MEP in stands for Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing. So effectively, these are engineers that take care of a building’s mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. They cater to the complicated and intricate system of electrical wires that runs throughout every corner of the building and water pipes that bring water to the faucet. In essence, they are the ones who actually give high-rise buildings its functionality.
