Summary: | 碩士 === 臺灣大學 === 土木工程學研究所 === 98 === As the technology improved with time passing by, the modern building is equipped with more systems. In addition to the basic systems, like MEP (Mechanical, Electric, Plumbing), drainage system, water supply, air-conditioning (AC), electronic and telecommunication system, the building usually possesses more complex systems to be modernized. For example, the fire fighting system, the energy-saving equipment and the security network are frequently equipped today.
In the design phase of a project, each team constructs its own 3D model for the specific system. Before executing the design, all team’s built models need to be carefully inspected to be integrated. Because conflicts might exist among different systems’ designs, design teams would spend a lot of time to discuss and resolve them. The project with more complex systems requires more frequent discussions. When teams are distributed in different places, communication via the telephone is conventional. However, 3D concepts are hard to be interpreted by mere words. This makes it difficult for participants to comprehend the discussion issues. Hence, this high degree of the co-ordination causes time and money consuming. Hence, to cause the waste of time and money in communication.
In this study, we propose an Internet-accessible interface which integrates 3D display applications. We complied with the open-agent architecture to implement an object-oriented prototype system, call BIM Review Agent (BIM.RA). Inspectors are able to use BIM.RA to coordinate from anywhere with Internet. It is important that BIM.RA applies BIM model to express 3D information of objects which is too complicate to describe by graphics and characters. In this way, BIM.RA allowed users to explore the visualized objects efficiently and to resolve the conflicts faster among different system models (ex interference check and clash check).
