建築專案主要是由結構、建築和機電三大部分所組成，隨著人們對生活品質的要求逐漸提升，不斷改善建築環境的舒適度與便利性，使得現代建築之機電系統設計與施工漸趨複雜化。在實務上，由於機電系統種類繁多，專業知識較不易為其他工種所了解，為解決設計或施工上界面整合的問題，必需透過不斷重複的溝通與協調，然而，由於缺乏有效的電腦輔助工具，在設計或施工衝突的檢核與協調上，往往需要耗費大量人力、時間。
因此，本研究從機電系統的資訊處理著手，以IFC-based 之建物資訊模型（BIM）為基礎，在3D視覺模擬的平台上，建立可整合多面向資訊之MEP（Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing）資訊模型，以作為機電系統在規劃設計或施工作業上的資訊整合核心。在作法上，本研究透過與MEP業者訪談、參與協調會議、工地調查、研讀相關文獻以及規範限制等方式，分析機電系統於生命週期各階段之資訊處理程序與需求，依此建立機電圖形元件之標準屬性架構，並藉由BIM（Building Information Modeling）技術，於Autodesk Revit MEP建模平台上，進一步延伸圖形元件之標準屬性內容，使其可充分描述機電系統之多面向屬性資料，以滿足專案計劃與施工管控之資訊需求。
本研究針對機電系統解析其工程作業之資訊需求，其中包括給排水系統、消防系統、強電系統、弱電系統、空調系統與特殊管路系統，而所延伸之資料屬性架構可分為設計面向、階層面向、施工行為面向以及營運與維護面向。設計面向之資訊屬性用以確認機電系統能滿足規範及其功能性，其中包括元件的功能、材料、成本、支撐系統、絕緣外層之材料及厚度、間距、排水坡度、壓力等；階層面向屬性用以敘述各元件空間層級資料，將管件、設備等機電元件準確分配至適當之存放及施工地點，提高物料分配的準確度，進而避免多次的採購、查驗與吊裝作業，提高專案進行的效率；施工行為面向確保其施工性，讓工地施工更流暢而有效率，其資訊屬性包括管線及設備之所需安裝空間、作業順序、訂貨交付時間等；運作與維護資訊屬性則具備了降低運作及維護成本及維修的困難性的功能，其中包含設備元件的維修空間需求及頻率等。
以此多面向資料屬性架構為基礎，藉由BIM技術所建構之機電系統資訊整合模型，可滿足專案計劃與施工管控之資訊需求，此模型可應用於(1)提供工程人員準確的2D或3D結構機電整合界面圖，(2)統計各樓層各空間所需元件，做為物料管理之依據，(3)協助機電系統與建築、結構系統之衝突檢核，(4)以設備與管路維護頻率，計算其維護日期，(5)設備與管路維護所需空間，提供施工人員做為參考預留維護空間…等。經案例驗證顯示，藉由BIM技術所建構之資訊整合資料庫系統，能協助工程人員在數量計算、預算成本編列、物料管理以及維護與管理等作業，能有效提升資訊處理與整合的一致性與效率。

Construction project contains structure, architecture, and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing), MEP systems become more complex in order to improve the environment and convenience of building. MEP systems contain a lot of components, and its knowledge is very specialized, therefore, Engineers and workers always need to spend a lot of human resources and time on coordination process.
Therefore, this research develops a BIM-Based MEP Model based on Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) with 3D visual simulation platform, to incorporate multi-aspects of construction information required for project planning. This research analyzes processing procedures and requirements in various stages of the life cycle of MEP systems. Then, extent the properties set of MEP components based on requirements of information, in order to satisfy the information needs of project planning and control of construction.
The framework of extended attributes can be divided into four aspects, includes geometric, containment hierarchy, construction behavior, operation and maintenance. Attributes set of geometric aspect meet the regulation and function of MEP systems, attributes set of containment hierarchy to describe the hierarchy information of each component, attributes set of construction behavior to fulfill its constructability, finally, attributes set of operation and maintenance can reduce costs and difficulties of maintenance.
BIM-Based MEP Model of this research can satisfy the information needs of project planning and control of construction, it help engineers on quantity survey, calculate budget cost, resource management, operation and maintenance.
