Module 04_Advanced BMS

A Building Management System (BMS) is a control system for monitoring and managing various mechanical, electrical, and electromechanical services in a facility, including HVAC, security, and fire safety. It allows for centralized control, data collection, and analytics to optimize building performance and safety. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital process that uses 3D models for managing project aspects throughout its lifecycle, facilitating collaboration, scheduling, and maintenance while enhancing sustainability and risk management.

BUILDING SERVICES 04

Module 04:Advanced BMS


What is BMS?

A building management system (BMS) is a control system that can be used to monitor and manage the mechanical, electrical and
electromechanical systems and services in a facility. Such services include
• Power systems
• Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)
• Physical access control (turnstiles and access doors controlling who is allowed access and egress to the building)
• Security and observation systems such as closed-circuit television (CCTV), burglar alarms
• Fire safety systems
• Water pumps/ plumbing systems
• Elevators
• Smart illumination systems, lights etc.

This platform allows users to


• Modify the equipment settings from centralized or remote locations
• Inspect building conditions from centralized or remote locations
• Collect building performance data
Thus it is also called a building automation system or computerized maintenance management system. These systems collect data from
around a building or facility and monitor it for any abnormalities. If the data falls outside the predetermined ranges, indicating possible
problems, the system sends an alert to building or equipment managers. The building management system also features analytics
capabilities, allowing operators to process building data to optimize energy consumption profiles, improve building safety and create a
more optimal working environment for occupants.
Basic functions of BMS

• Controlling
• Monitoring
• Optimizing
• Scheduling

Working of BMS

A basic BMS consists of software, a server with a database and smart sensors connected to an internet-capable network. Smart sensors
and other smart building technology around the facility gather data and send it to the BMS, where it's stored in a database. Data is
analyzed and reported via dashboards. If a sensor reports data that falls outside the predefined conditions, the BMS will send
notifications. For example, a data center BMS might trigger an alarm when the temperature in a server rack exceeds acceptable limits, or
water has accumulated on the floor.
What is BIM?

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital process that uses 3D models as a foundation for managing all aspects of a project, from
planning and design to construction, operation, and maintenance. Building information modeling (BIM) is the holistic process of
creating and managing information for a built asset. Based on an intelligent model and enabled by a cloud platform, BIM integrates
structured, multi-disciplinary data to produce a digital representation of an asset across its lifecycle, from planning and design to
construction and operations
Basic functions of BIM

Design and Documentation:

•3D Modeling & Documentation: BIM generates accurate and up-to-date documentation, including drawings, schedules, and
specifications.

•Clash Detection: BIM helps identify and resolve conflicts between different disciplines and trades early in the design process.

Construction and Management:

•Collaboration: BIM facilitates seamless collaboration between architects, engineers, contractors, and other stakeholders.

•Scheduling and Cost Estimation: BIM helps in creating accurate schedules and cost estimates for the project. BIM provides precise
quantities of materials needed for construction. To simulate construction sequences and integrate cost data into the model.

Facility Management:

•Building Information & Asset Management: BIM models serve as a digital twin of the building, providing detailed information for
maintenance and operations.

•Maintenance Scheduling: BIM can help in scheduling maintenance activities and predicting potential problems.

Miscellaneous:

•Sustainability: BIM can be used to analyze the energy performance of buildings and optimize design for sustainability.

•Risk Management: BIM helps identify and mitigate potential risks during the design and construction phases.
