In all, retro-commissioning improves a building's operations and maintenance (O&M) procedures to enhance overall building performance. Re-Commissioning is another type of commissioning that occurs when a building that has already been commissioned undergoes another commissioning process. The decision to recommission may be triggered by a change ...
Commissioning of a conveyor where equipment is being tested to its maximum rating and capacity of operation. Project commissioning is the process of ensuring that all systems and components of a building or industrial plant are designed, installed, tested, operated, and maintained according to the owner's or final client's operational requirements.
Software designed specifically for commissioning is typically has two main parts: A mobile field data collection component which allows for mobile data collection in both online and offline modes, and; An admin and reporting component, which is where a Cx manager would set up a project and view completion metrics and submitted commissioning forms.
Building Enclosure Commissioning (BECx) (sometimes 'envelope' is used instead of 'enclosure') is a quality-focused process wherein the energy performance of a facility, system or assembly is evaluated and verified against defined objectives and criteria.
Various abbreviations used for this type of contract are LSTK for lump sum turn key, EPIC for engineering, procurement, installation & commissioning and EPCC for engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning. Use of EPIC is common, e.g., by FIDIC and most Persian Gulf countries. Use of LSTK is common in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Performance-Based Building Design is an approach to the design of any complexity of building, from single-detached homes up to and including high-rise apartments and office buildings. A building constructed in this way is required to meet certain measurable or predictable performance requirements, such as energy efficiency or seismic load ...
The program features include time schedules, set points, controllers, logic, timers, trend logs, and alarms. The unit controllers typically have analog and digital inputs that allow measurement of the variable (temperature, humidity, or pressure) and analog and digital outputs for control of the transport medium (hot/cold water and/or steam).
Many tasks in building services engineering involve the use of engineering software, for example to design/model or draw solutions. The most common types of tool are whole building energy simulation [3] and CAD (traditionally 2D) or the increasingly popular Building Information Modeling (BIM) which is 3D. 3D BIM software can have integrated tools for Building Services calculations such sizing ...
