I would like to share a support request:
Request:
How can I create a custom material layer to be included in a material layer composition?

Answer:
To create a custom material layer proceed as follows:
1. open either the "USER or PROJECT BIM object library";
2. from the menu choose "MATERIAL LAYER ELEMENTS";
3.select the "HOMOGENEOUS elements" folder;
4. Right click "append"> "Folder"

5. type the name of the folder;
6. select the folder;
7. Right click "append"> "Item".


Within the editor, you can customize the individual material by choosing from the properties toolbox a pattern, an image and assigning some thermal properties.

Dear sir,
your specific question refers to a different topic but here's a refernce to a possible workflow to solve the need of creatingyour own 3D Objects and using them in your MEP modelling process.
Here's direct access to our Edificius-MEP Training platform here:
bimsoftwaretraining.accasoftware.com/en/courses/complete-training-course-of-edificius-mep/

In relation to the possibility to add and customize your own MEP 3D models ready for use in the Software, please also refer to this Video Link.

It provides a fully detailed explanation of how to add your own Objects and use then in your MEP design workflow.

Regards
