  • This paper aims to propose a cost-based mechanical, electrical, and plumbing(MEP) coordination process using building information modeling(BIM). The proposed process can help project participants eliminate identified clashes between the MEP elements, analyze trends relating to MEP costs during the coordination process, and share their findings. MEP quantity-related information extracted through BIM was integrated with the cost database and schedule information. To check the applicability of the proposed process, it was applied to a construction project in South Korea. Through the application of the proposed process, MEP-related cost was reduced.
