Spool Drawings

The Benefits of Spool Drawings

Our spool drawings follow industry standards and detail piping systems from the development phase through final construction. Within your HVAC drawings, we build diagrams that illustrate both your piping system and how it will interact with the other building systems. Spool drawings also:

  • Detail component maintenance within the piping system

  • Demonstrate the building system’s sequence and connections

  • Provide a fabrication template

  • Include information your fabricators need for manufacture and assembly

  • Reduce and even eliminate field changes to prefabricated components

MLP Consulting uses the BIM model to create spool drawings that clearly illustrate either the entire piping system or a discrete part of it. These are sometimes called piping spool drawings or assembly drawings and can be used for a wide range of construction plumbing projects.

Our spool drawings include all the necessary details regarding assembly, bills of material, connections, dimensions, tolerances, and general notes for fabrication and installation.

On- or off-site, our spool drawings provide the perfect guide for accurate prefabrication and assembly. We optimize pipe spool drawings for a single spool to include every detail necessary for manufacture and assembly. When generating segmented spool drawings and maps, we implement both contractor preference and pre-fabrication standards. The result is improved quality and better cost control.
