BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

Abstract

Building management systems — or building automation systems as they are sometimes called — are intelligent systems for controlling and managing buildings by automating those functions normally carried out by people and managing energy use. In early Facilities articles we looked at the case for building management systems primarily on their energy savings potential (Vol 1/No 2, May 1983) and on their capacity for integration with other monitoring functions (Vol 1/No 3, June 1983).
