Abstract Topologies of space and mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) are crucial to a building's design and maintenance. Traditional information storage is often fragmented and difficult to extract and utilize. Building information modeling (BIM) provides the uniform descriptions, storage, and management of various professional information to significantly improve the extraction and application efficiency of topology information. This paper introduces the industry foundation classes (IFC), proposes an integrated topology model of space and MEP, and studies the technology of extracting and integrating the topological information. Tests show that this model eliminates re-modeling, effectively utilize the rich BIM information, and enables integrated applications.
