Description

Imagine working in a building with smart features and tenant applications that allow you to monitor, manage, and control every aspect of your user experience. Internet of Things for Smart Buildings is a comprehensive guide that will help you achieve that with smart building architecture, ecosystems, technologies, and key components that create a smart building. In this book, you’ll start by examining all the building systems and applications that can be automated with IoT devices. You’ll learn about different apps to improve efficiency, reduce consumption, and improve occupant satisfaction. You’ll explore IoT sensors, devices, computing platforms, analytics software, user interfaces, and connectivity options, along with common challenges you might encounter while developing the architecture. You’ll also discover how to piece different components together to develop smart buildings with the help of use cases and examples and get to grips with the various IoT stacks. After finding out where to start developing the requirements for your project, you’ll uncover a recommended methodology to understand your current building systems and a process for determining what needs to be modified, along with new technology requirements. By the end of the book, you’ll be able to design and build your own smart building initiative, turning your city into a smart city with one building at a time.

The book is a very thorough look at the technology advancements including IoT and AI that delivered the foundations for Smart Buildings. I enjoyed the vibrant detail of a Day-in-the-Life possibilities with efficient building management systems, and amenities targeting the building tenants and occupants. Having toured the Sinclair Hotel in 2019 during smart renovations and conversion to Power over Ethernet (PoE), I am anxious to now see the finished, open hotel.I also believe the premise that Smart Buildings are the foundation blocks to connecting buildings to form a Smart Campus, then later to Communities, and finally ultimately a Smart City with interconnected systems.The book also highlights significant obstacles to Smart Buildings: the lack of a common architecture; the lack of standards; IT and OT systems being separated and the lack of a top down approach.

This book is an awesome resource. If you are serious about learning what is a smart building and what it takes to create smart buildings, you cannot find a better resource. Harry clearly understands and identifies the many issues facing traditional buildings. He then goes on to explain the numerous technologies that make up the Internet of Things (IoT) and how they can be applied to solve these sometimes complex and challenging issues when trying to build and operate a smart building. Conceiving, designing, constructing and managing a smart building just became a lot simpler… or at least a lot more practical. This is a comprehensive guide, and the examples, explanations and recommendations are invaluable.I highly recommend this book not only for understanding IoT and how it works but also how it can be applied to solve problems that were unsolvable in the past. Hope you enjoy the book as much as I did. You will learn a lot.

My wireless network integration company CTS has seen our projects move from a majority of macro cell (wireless towers) work a few years ago to a majority of small cell and in-building network deployments today. I wanted to better understand how these in-building network integrations were driving the smart buildings we heard so much about and the book Internet of Things for Smart Buildings looked like it would tell me everything I needed to know. This book did not disappoint. It was well written, extremely detailed, yet easy to read and understand how IoT, wired, wireless, and other technologies can all come together to create a smart building. Numerous examples, use cases, and lists of smart applications were presented and I better understand the potential systems my company will be installing and integrating soon. I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to learn how buildings get smart with IoT and smart building solutions. Joel Carlson Founder and President Carlson Telecom Services (CTS)

Smart technology has brought down the cost of insurance for newer vehicles over the past serval years with numerous safety features. I wanted to understand how smart building technology could impact the insurance rates for commercial property in a similar manner but first I needed to understand how buildings got smarter in the first place. Smeenk’s book Internet of Things for Smart Buildings does an excellent job of outlining what the internet of things (IoT) and smart buildings are, and how together they deliver enormous potential to improve health and safety, reduce risks, reduce operations costs, and make buildings smarter to prevent or dramatically reduce the impact of flooding, fires, and other events. I have a better understanding how all the systems in a building can work together and deliver opportunities to reduce insurance risk. People who want to learn about smart buildings and IoT for any reason should buy this book. Adam Bamford Founder Bamford Insurance
