Synopsis

Giving you a combination of general principles, applied practice and information on the state-of-the-art, this book will give you the information you need to incorporate the latest systems and technologies into your building projects. It focuses on a number of important issues, such as:

• Network communication protocols and standards, including the application of the internet.
• The integration and interfacing of building automation subsystems and multiple building systems.
• Local and supervisory control strategies for typical building services systems.
• The automation system configuration and technologies for air-conditioning control, lighting system control, security and access control, and fire safety control.

Whether you’re a project manager or engineer planning the systems set-up for a high value building, or a building engineering or management student looking for a practical guide to automation and intelligent systems, this book provides a valuable introduction and overview.
