Intelligent Building Definition

• Intelligent buildings should be sustainable,
  healthy, technologically aware, meet the needs of
  occupants and business and should be flexible and
  adaptable to deal with change
• Clements-Croome (2007)

4
Definition - 2

• An intelligent building is a dynamic and
  responsive architecture that provides every
  occupant with productive, cost effective and
  environmentally approved conditions through a
  continuous interaction among its four basic
  elements places (fabric structure facilities)
  processes (automation control systems) people
  (services users) and management (maintenance
  performance) and the interrelation between them.
• The CIB Working Group W098 (1995).

Pedagogy and Buildings

• Space has the power to condition behaviour and
  form personality. ... The environment affects our
  emotions, feelings and reactions.
• Scuri (1995)
• the more integrated building allows
  communications between staff to be considerably
  enhanced.
• Penn et al. (1977)

Happy workers are effective

• research suggests a correlation between worker
  productivity, wellbeing, environmental, social
  and organisational factors.

Ill advised reduction?
Often there is an attempt to reduce maintenance
with consequential waste of energy and
deteriorating environmental conditions. Evans et
al (1998) point out that the building lifetime
cost ratios vary but commonly are 15200 to
110200. In other words, the major costs of
running an organisation are the salaries of the
staff. Clements Croome (2007)

Energy efficient buildings
The following features are important High
levels of thermal insulation Natural ventilation
connected spaces Exclude excessive solar
gain High efficiency lighting Individual control
measures Efficient systems equipment and
appliances Employ effective facilities

Post Script
Of course, communication is vital. This means
having mutual respect between fellow
professionals and an open mind to include
expertise from backgrounds different to those
with which the building industry is familiar. For
the long term, it is important that these issues
are reflected in education and training
courses. Clements-Croome (2007)
