Legislation

• The Act and Code are administered by Municipal Authorities
• Enforcement is a local responsibility

– Primarily in the hand of municipalities

Objective-based Format - INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS

• BC’s 2006 Building Code is drafted in an “objective-based” format
• Consistent with the 2005 model national building codes

Objective-based Format - INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS

• Under an objective-based format Code still contains specific

technical requirements – May be prescriptive or performance-based – Redefined as “acceptable solutions” – BCBC & OBC also now includes the “why” behind Code requirements

Intelligent Buildings - STR STRENGTHS ENGTHS The Migration Phase

Our industry is approaching a migration phase This phase will change the rules for the designer for the commissioning and for the technicians

Intelligent Buildings - STR STRENGTHS ENGTHS The Migration Phase

The need for scalable, interoperable, flexible and open systems is spurring participants from different building technology industries to collaborate on a single platform

Learning to work together and building efficiencies

Intelligent Buildings - STR STRENGTHS ENGTHS The Migration Phase

• Technologies in the building industry are more

business driven than research oriented

• A building's degree of intelligence is likely to

depend on the extent to which there is a consensus to include various available technologies

Intelligent Buildings - STR STRENGTHS ENGTHS The Migration Phase

• Building technologies are set for further growth with

embedded intelligence leading to – Excellent comfort levels – State-of-the-art security – Optimized operational costs – Enhanced level of life safety

Intelligent Buildings - STR STRENGTHS ENGTHS The Migration Phase

• Life Safety industry could be the prominent leader

if we curtail our dependence regarding proprietary solutions

Intelligent Buildings - STR STRENGTHS ENGTHS The Migration Phase

• Life Safety industry will be the prominent leader if

we continue to curtail our dependence regarding proprietary solutions

Intelligent Buildings - Wea Weakn knes esse ses The Migration Phase Intelligent Buildings require technological

developments with the ability to curtail the prominence of proprietary solutions Proprietary solutions give an impression of being open systems when they are not

Current Problems

• The data structures for the standard protocols are similar
• However, their implementations are quite different
• So, Gateways between any two of the standard

protocols tend to be complex

• Enterprise computing will have a major impact on

life safety

• Integrate information from our familiar desktop PCs

with mobile smart phones & ultra thin laptops

Will the our Codes and Standards conflict with emerging technologies? Intelligent Buildings - Thr hrea eats ts

• Integration plays a key role in bringing down
• perating costs and allows us to look at the

building as one single process Intelligent Buildings - Thr hrea eats ts

• Stable and reliable communication is one

precondition for system integration

• Protocols and functions must be exactly

described Intelligent Buildings - Thr hrea eats ts

• The delimitation of responsibility at the interfaces
• Uncoordinated alterations in the subsystems
• Intolerable complications for integration

OPC - A New Alternative?

OPC - A New Alternative?

• OPC stands for "OLE for Process Control“
• Communication standard based on OLE/COM

technology Component Object Model

• Brings the same benefits to industrial hardware

and software that standard printer drivers brought to word processing

• OPC provides an interfacing standard for factory

automation

BACnet, EIB/KNX, LonMark, etc. – Where to Use What?
