Q: IF I WANT TO COMPLETE A COMMERCIAL BUILDING WITH ALL SERVICES LIKE, ARCH,STR, ELEC, PLUMB.....?
IS IT POSSIBLE IN ONE MODEL OR I CREATE DIFFERENT MODEL IN DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT LIKE ARCH, STR, EMP etc.....?
you need to create a different model for different discipline and create a main file and link them together best practice. thanks

It really comes down to project size and number of projectpartners.
Performancewise, it may seem logical to separate each discipline, in the other hand, working with linked Revit models can be a hassle.
Another options besides separating the project in multiple Revit projects, is the usage of worksets for each discipline.
The advantage of worksets is that only the selected worksets are loaded when working in Revit.
Separate for each model for each discipline in BIM common work flow. So go for it.

That is a Very subjective question. CAN it be done, certainly, i see it all the time. Usually for smaller buildings (like houses, small offices, etc...) and usually from smaller firms with limited people in the model. I would NOT recommend it for a larger project where you have more people in the model. You also have to consider if the model is being worked on in one office or in multiple offices or multiple consultants.
In my office it doesn't matter how big or small the project is, models are always separated by discipline.

There are advantages to having all MEP trades in one model. They share equipment that gets connected to multiple trades. Arbitrarily, mandating separating them as a default is counterintuitive. Yes, larger projects might need to have separate models for logistical reasons be it hardware or personnel but if they can all be in one model it saves a lot of work coordinating and managing models.
