Ask not ‘what can you do for your technology?’ ask ‘what can your technology do for you?’

Green and Intelligent Buildings: save costs and boost productivity,
sustainably!
‘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)
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).
Behaviours
• Tidy or untidy • Methodical or haphazard• Good memory or Forgetful
• Lighting, heating and systems – consume energy– control them
• Automation – switch it off!

The goal – 4 E’s
• Economy = minimising cost
• Efficiency = making best use of resources
• Effectiveness = degree of achievement of outcome
• Efficacy = degree of relevance of outcome

Pedagogy
• Worker Performance =
Motivation x Ability x Opportunity
• Tasks - Individuals– Want to do– Capable of doing– Can be done
• Building creates– Physical environment
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)
CLCs – the new LRCs• communications• social interaction• flexibility• hierarchical and non-hierarchical
organisational structures• work productivity• effectiveness of ventilation and air quality• privacy• crowding• individual control• Storage
Ilozor (2000)
Happy workers are effective
• “research suggests a correlation between worker productivity, wellbeing, environmental, social and organisational factors.”
Clements-Croome (2007)

Annualised UK building costs
• Capital investment – £200/m² per year
• energy and plant costs– £10/m² per year
• Staff costs– £15,000/m² per year
Hodgett (1993)• a 1% change in productivity...??

Cost $120m
Cost overrun 1700%
Replacement Cost $120m
Energy usage
• Energy used to heat, light and ventilate buildings– 45%
• Energy used to construct buildings– 5%
Edwards (2002)
Carbon Trust
• High potential – Building Controls
– Smart metering
– Building fabric• Heating, ventilation• Cooling, integrated design
• Lower potential – Biomass (for electricity generation),
– Nuclear Fusion,
– Solar photovoltaic
Carbon Trust (2001)
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 1:5:200 to 1:10:200. In other words, the major costs of running an organisation are the salaries of the staff.

Energy efficient buildings
The following features are important:
High levels of thermal insulationNatural ventilation – connected spacesExclude excessive solar gainHigh efficiency lightingIndividual control measuresEfficient systems equipment and appliancesEmploy effective facilities management

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)
