📚 Course structure
- Heat load estimation — Design conditions, envelope and internal gains, ventilation loads and block versus peak load logic.
- Psychrometrics — Processes on the chart, coil selection, dehumidification and reheat strategies.
- Air distribution — Duct sizing by equal friction and static regain, fittings and losses, diffuser selection and noise.
- Chilled water and hydronics — Pipe sizing, pump head, primary-secondary and variable flow systems, expansion and balancing.
- Equipment selection — Chillers, AHUs, FCUs, VRF, cooling towers and heat recovery options.
- Ventilation and specialist spaces — Car parks, kitchens, labs, cleanroom air changes and pressurisation.
- Fire and life safety interface — Smoke management, stairwell pressurisation and code-driven requirements.
- Plumbing and public health — Water demand, pumps and tanks, drainage and venting sizing.
- Electrical load and coordination — MEP services coordination, shaft and ceiling space planning, and clash resolution.
- Deliverables — Load sheets, equipment schedules, layouts, BOQ and tender documentation.
🧮 3D-LABS calculators and software you will use
Every module is worked on our HVAC and plumbing design sheets — load estimation, duct and pipe sizing, cleanroom air changes, cooling tower and pump selection — drawn from the 680+ calculator library, and you keep them all.

About HVAC and MEP Design Training
HVAC and MEP Design Training is a 3D-LABS Engineering course designed for engineers, technical professionals, and students. By the end of this course, you will be able to gain immediately applicable skills for your engineering work. The course combines live-cohort sessions (weekends) with self-paced material available 24/7.
Who HVAC and MEP Design Training is for
HVAC and MEP Design Training is designed for:
- Early-career engineers wanting to accelerate practical skills in the topic.
- Experienced engineers moving into a new domain or refreshing their working knowledge.
- Team leads wanting to level-set junior team members on a specific skill.
- Students preparing for professional roles in the discipline.
What is included
- Live-cohort sessions — weekend sessions with the instructor, 2 hours each, recorded for those who cannot attend live.
- Self-paced modules — recorded lessons, exercises, and reference material available 24/7 in your account.
- Project-based assessment — real-project deliverable at the end, not a multiple-choice quiz.
- Certificate of completion — verifiable online at 3d-labs.com/verify.
- 12 months of access — pace yourself, revisit material anytime within the access window.
- Access to spreadsheet library — course-relevant subset of the 621 3D-LABS engineering spreadsheets included at no extra cost.
Course structure and duration
Total duration: 6-12 weeks depending on scope. Each week: 2 hours live session + 3-5 hours self-paced material + 2-4 hours applied exercises. Total commitment: 7-11 hours per week. Compatible with a full-time job — most students work through the course alongside their day job.

Frequently asked questions
How is HVAC and MEP Design Training delivered?
HVAC and MEP Design Training combines live-cohort sessions with self-paced material. Live sessions run on weekends (2 hours, IST time zone) and are recorded for those who cannot attend live. Self-paced material — recorded lessons, exercises, and reference documents — is available in your account 24/7.
What is the course duration?
Typical duration: 7 weeks. You have 12 months of access from purchase, so you can pace yourself. Live cohort sessions run in defined 7 week windows — you can join the current cohort or wait for the next one.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. After completing all lessons and passing the final assessment (typically a project deliverable, not a multiple-choice quiz), you receive a certificate of completion from 3D-LABS. The certificate is verifiable online at 3d-labs.com/verify.
Who teaches the course?
Courses are taught by senior 3D-LABS engineers with 10-20+ years of industry experience. Instructor bios are on the course page. This is applied engineering practice from working engineers, not academic theory.
What if the course does not meet my expectations?
7-day satisfaction guarantee. If you have attended the first live session or completed the first module of self-paced material and are not satisfied, email us within 7 days for a full refund. After 7 days, refunds are pro-rated based on material accessed.
