Control of the External Environment of Buildings

This volume contains selected papers delivered at several conferences held in Singapore dealing with the control of the external environment. The topics discussed are generally applicable to warm humid climates, and are intended to introduce the reader to the various problems of building design for the climatic conditions of the tropical regions. Illustrations and photographs are included.
Building Production Management Techniques

Building Production Management Techniques provides an innovative approach to dealing with the universal problems of time, cost and quality of construction projects. The book provides an introduction to a number of management techniques that can be applied to the problems of production presented by the diverse, heavy, large and geographically distributed products typical of construction everywhere. As well as recognised and tried and tested management techniques, the authors have introduced a number of techniques which may not have been considered by the construction industry to date.
Advanced Controls for Intelligent Buildings

This book focuses primarily on both technical and business aspects needed to select, design, develop and deploy control application (or product) successfully for multiple components in building systems. Designing and deploying a control application require multiple steps such as sensing, system dynamics modelling, algorithms, and testing. This may involve choosing an appropriate methodology and technique at multiple stages during the development process. Understanding the pros and cons of such techniques, most importantly being aware of practically possible approaches in the entire ecosystem, is critical in choosing the best framework and system application for different parts of building systems. Providing a wide overview of the state-of art in controls and building systems, providing guidance on developing an end-to-end system in relation to business fundamentals (distribution channels, stakeholders, marketing, supply-chain and financial management), the book is ideal for fourth-year control/mechanical/electrical engineering undergraduates, graduate students, and practitioners including business leaders concerned with smart building technology.
