Using the new Route and Fill feature in Revit 2017, MEP designers can now "fill in the gaps" in a Revit Fabrication model for ductwork, pipework, and electrical containment.
The Route and Fill tool conveniently allows you to add parts between two open connectors in a faster, more efficient way than placing parts one-by-one.
Check out my short video demonstrating how to use the Route and Fill tool with Revit Fabrication Parts.
