IMC MEP compliance check
Helonic is an AI construction drawing analysis platform for mep teams checking International Mechanical Code on construction drawings.
Helonic checks mep construction drawings against International Mechanical Code to detect violations, missing requirements, and code compliance issues before they delay a permit or hit the field.
What is International Mechanical Code?
The model mechanical code for HVAC systems, exhaust, duct construction, hydronic systems, and refrigeration. Covers all mechanical systems not in the IPC or NEC scope.
Scope
Mechanical and HVAC systems in all building types
Editions
2021 IMC (current), 2018, 2015
Applicability
Adopted in most US jurisdictions alongside the IBC.
What does Helonic check for IMC mep work?
What mep issues does Helonic catch?
Combined mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings for all building systems coordination.
Why does IMC mep compliance matter?
International Mechanical Code compliance for mep drawings is critical because violations discovered during plan review delay permits, and issues found during construction result in costly rework, change orders, and schedule delays. Catching IMC mep issues during preconstruction costs 10x less than fixing them in the field (CII, 1-10-100 Rule).
How does Helonic check IMC compliance?
Upload your PDF drawings
Upload your mep PDF drawings. No BIM models or 3D software required. Helonic works with the 2D PDFs your team already uses.
Purpose-built construction AI
Helonic's AI is trained specifically to review construction drawings against IMC requirements. Domain-specific training catches issues that generic AI tools miss.
Exact issue locations
Every IMC compliance issue is tagged with the exact page and coordinates on your drawings, plus severity ratings (high, medium, low) so you can prioritize.
One-click RFI generation
Turn detected IMC issues into formatted RFIs with a single click. Push directly to Procore with issue details, code references, and page locations.
