Proper Fabrication Parts support
Until now, Fabrication Parts support in MEP Hangers was very limited. Only Fabrication Hangers were allowed on Fabrication Ductwork, Pipework, and Containment. Because of this, the flexible functionality the tool offered with hanger families (.RFA) was not supported for Fabrication Parts.
The current release removes this limitation.
This unlocks many more hanger placement possibilities: creating wall supports, rooftop supports, attaching hangers to existing supports (multi-tier hangers), and much more. Using families (.RFA) also brings the general ease of use and flexibility to quickly modify hangers and customize them for specific needs.)
To explore the new functionality, simply use the application as usual – select Fabrication Parts in the view, click download them here.
, and choose the configuration. To get FabParts configurations, you can either create new ones or modify existing ones – for example, duplicate a Pipe configuration and change the value to Sample configurations (including FabParts examples) are created when an empty folder is selected in , or you canHangers on Linked MEP, now with FabParts
In case you missed it, earlier MEP Hangers update introduced the ability to place hangers and supports on MEP elements in linked files (see the video below).
That same functionality now extends to Fabrication Parts, giving you more flexibility across project workflows.

Improved getting started workflow
For new users, the getting started process is now much easier. We’ve removed roadblocks so you can start placing hangers in minutes.
The tool now detects if you don’t have hanger and support families loaded and will suggest downloading them.

Sample models – showcasing different configurations and providing a testing environment – are also updated. You can find and download them here.
Numbers & Coordinates: Smarter data management
And lastly, there’s one more addition to the toolbar –
. This lets you create and run rule-based configurations to batch-number elements or extract data (coordinates, room/space, or host data). It supports all Revit elements, not just hangers or MEP.)
