Automation Systems In Smart And Green Buildings

Buildings exist to enable collaboration, allowing occupants to be productive, efficient, and creative. Intelligent buildings provide for improved occupant circulation, interaction, and collaboration. Intelligent building is the one that provides a productive and cost-effective environment through optimisation of its four basic elements—structure, systems, services and management—and the interrelationships between them. The intelligent building can adapt itself to maintain an optimized environment. From a design perspective this means attention to how the occupants will circulate through the building.In every country in the world, the built environment normally constitutes more than half of the total national capital investment and construction represents as much as 10% of GDP.
