Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Connected devices do not make an intelligent building. Without a coherent architecture, automation projects become collections of controllers, dashboards, gateways, and cloud services that cannot be explained, tested, secured, or sustained.This handbook shows how to engineer building automation as a complete cyber-physical system. It connects owner intent, measurable requirements, field electronics, control logic, networks, data, cybersecurity, commissioning, and lifecycle governance-so every layer supports reliable operation.Use this practical reference to: translate operational goals into specifications, acceptance criteria, and testable evidence;design sensors, actuators, input and output interfaces, power, grounding, protection, and reliable field installations;write explicit sequences, state logic, alarms, overrides, and bounded supervisory control;plan resilient operational networks, integrations, histories, application interfaces, and semantic data models;apply secure architecture, least-privilege access, monitoring, recovery, and continuous assurance;improve heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning performance with supervisory optimization, analytics, and automated fault detection; andcoordinate energy flexibility, modernization, and portfolio decisions without losing command authority or data meaning.Eighteen chapters cover systems architecture; requirements and procurement; field electronics; control software; operational networking; interoperability; building data; cross-domain integration; digital twins; advanced environmental control; analytics; occupant interaction; energy management; cybersecurity; resilience and safety; commissioning; and brownfield modernization. Reusable worksheets, audit matrices, quick references, and a detailed index support design reviews, field verification, and long-term operations.The method follows a complete chain of evidence: goals become requirements; requirements become interfaces, sequences, and network decisions; implementation becomes observable through points, histories, alarms, and tests; and verified performance becomes an operating baseline. Failure behavior, overrides, recovery, ownership, and staged upgrades are addressed alongside normal operation, helping teams resolve root causes and preserve useful installed assets.The book is written for engineers, controls designers, system integrators, commissioning professionals, facility technology and energy leaders, consultants, technical managers, and advanced students. Readers should already understand basic circuits, sensors, actuators, direct digital control, introductory feedback control, heating and cooling systems, and network fundamentals.If you need a defensible way to connect design intent with software behavior, operating evidence, security, and lifecycle value, this handbook provides the architecture and methods to do it. Build systems that can be understood, verified, adapted, and trusted. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Modern facilities depend on one continuous chain: sense the physical world, communicate reliable data, make a controlled decision, act safely, and verify the outcome.That chain crosses electronics, measurement, controls, mechanical systems, networking, energy, software, cybersecurity, and operations. When those disciplines are studied in isolation, important failure modes disappear between them. A biased sensor, noisy signal, weak actuator, unstable loop, ambiguous data point, network delay, competing sequence, or untested override can undermine comfort, efficiency, resilience, and trust in the entire system.This vendor-neutral engineering textbook connects the full sensor-to-decision-to-action lifecycle. It begins with circuits, signals, uncertainty, sensors, transducers, relays, drives, and power interfaces. It then develops embedded and programmable control, feedback behavior, tuning, state logic, communication networks, interoperable data, and supervisory sequences. The same framework is applied to heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting, shading, plug loads, metering, storage, distributed energy, connected analytics, secure operation, commissioning, and modernization.What you will learnTrace measurements and commands through every layer of an integrated facility.Connect control theory to modes, interlocks, alarms, resets, overrides, and real equipment constraints.Evaluate sensor quality, actuator authority, network behavior, data meaning, and safe fallback states.Coordinate environmental quality, lighting, energy flexibility, resilience, and operational priorities.Use trends, functional tests, and diagnostic evidence to find root causes and verify performance.Plan upgrades with clear dependencies, security boundaries, documentation, and acceptance criteria.Key topicsCoverage includes electronics and measurement, field devices, digital controllers, feedback and sequence design, facility communications, semantic data, high-performance mechanical-system automation, lighting control, energy management, demand response, distributed resources, life-safety and security interfaces, wireless and edge systems, analytical methods, cybersecurity, commissioning, fault diagnostics, and staged facility modernization.Who this book is forDesigned for upper-level engineering students, technologists, technicians, commissioning personnel, early-career controls professionals, energy specialists, and practicing engineers who need a rigorous bridge across building, control, network, and operations disciplines. Algebra and introductory physics are assumed; some calculus is useful. The material also supports instructors and multidisciplinary project teams that need a shared technical language for design reviews, sequence development, troubleshooting, functional testing, and upgrade planning.Develop the systems-level reasoning to explain how an intelligent facility works, diagnose why it does not, and verify the performance of every improvement.
