Building management system (BMS) offers a wide range of measurements and historical data about the building but few types of researches use these data to analyze the building performance. This study aims to explore the indoor climate and building insulation by taking advantage of the BMS of the study case, which 767 sensors are installed in the room and wall structures and the signal data are available at the online web application. In addition, during the inspection, several error sensors and meters are detected are discussed as feedback for the system. It is concluded that the building management system is a good tool to study the building performance in different aspects and the measurements from the sensors are helpful but need validation by conducting a further field measurement in the building.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an umbrella term for smart things connected to the Internet. Connected sensors may be used to the benefit of smart building management systems. This thesis describes the development of a sensor based building management system prototype, lightweight enough to run on a single network camera. The focus of the research was investigating if the system prototype was scalable, and capable of storing and analyzing data gathered from a large amount of sensors relevant to the field of building management. The prototype was developed through a five-stage systems development process, and evaluated using simulations and case studies. The finished prototype was able to gather and store data from a few hundred real-time sensors using limited hardware. Tests showed that the network camera should be capable of managing at least 100 sensors. The system itself is scalable with the use of more powerful hardware. However, using a distributed architecture would be preferable if more sensors are required. This could be achieved by creating a distributed network of cameras, where each camera manages its own set of sensors. This could both increase scalability and make the system more robust and reliable.

A elevada competitividade dos dias atuais e a conscientização do consumidor para a qualidade dos produtos delimitam um contexto no qual os edifícios são entendidos como ativos que contribuem para a produtividade das organizações. Entretanto, a concepção dos edifícios nem sempre assegura soluções adequadas ao seu \"uso e operação\", devido à falhas na consideração das reais demandas dos usuáios. O objetivo desta Tese é formular um modelo conceitual para integrar as fases de \"concepção\" e de \"uso e operação\" do edifício por meio do planejamento da qualidade. O edifício do segmento hoteleiro apresenta uma diversidade de componentes, processos e agentes envolvidos em sua produção e operação; complexidade do programa arquitetônico; e papel relevante das atividades de manutenção predial para o desempenho do empreendimento, que justificam sua escolha como objeto da pesquisa. Os métodos de pesquisa envolvem revisão teórica e estudo de caso, a fim de verificar a aplicação prática dos conhecimentos levantados e avaliar o desempenho desses edifícios, com uso da Avaliação Pós-Ocupação, cujos resultados estabelecem a avaliação qualitativa desse desempenho e as prioridades dos usuários quanto a esses requisitos. Com base nas análises realizadas, a Tese é concluída com a elaboração de um modelo para o Planejamento da Qualidade de edifícios hoteleiros aplicado às fases de \"concepção\" e \"uso e operação\", como forma de integrá-las, elevar o desempenho do edifício e a satisfação de seus usuários. / The fierce competition in the market and the alertness of the consumer to the quality of products define a context in which buildings are perceived as assets that contribute to the productivity of organizations.

This diploma thesis is dedicated to the analysis of operating data from the Brewery, a former industrial building, which has been reconstructed to a student centre of the Faculty of Information Technologies. The main goal of the work was to analyze the performance of the building and to evaluate energy savings originating from the energy saving measures that were applied during the retrofit.. The first part of the thesis focuses on the particular energy saving measures and the predictions of energy savings. The second part presents the results of the monitoring of the building and the HVAC systems during the first year of the operation of the Brewery.

The basic aim of this diploma thesis is to prepare project documentation for construction management for the new residential building in Prague. The building is designed in a combined monolithic reinforced concrete and brick support system. The building consists of three above (3.NP partial) and one underground floor. The mass of the building is designed as a single integrated unit. Plan of the building is rectangular. The thesis includes documnetation in the range of requirements for building management, assessment in terms of building physics building and fire safety of the building.

Introduction: The global demand for renewable energy is expected to grow annually due to rising electricity consumption and economic and regulatory incentives. Efficient consumption and management of electricity consumption can support this trend (shifting from fossil resources to renewable resources) and benefit companies economically by reducing peak loads, reducing subscription costs, and protecting companies' power systems and networks. For effective and efficient electricity management that can help reduce peak electricity demand, resulting in lower demand charges and further reducing operational costs, it is necessary to understand the amount of electricity consumption and its influencing factors. Seasonal and daily variations and social behaviors influence changes in electricity consumption. Electric load variation management is essential for electricity consumers to control costs related to maximum load capacity and building electrical network equipment protection. This research presents an assessment method for describing daily electric load variations. It is applied to electricity consumption systems, but the technique is generic and can be applied to all activities where daily variations occur.Purpose: This thesis aims to show when and why peak load occurs in an office building and also to provide methods to improve the efficiency of electricity consumption during peak load.Method: This method implemented parameters like temperature, electricity consumption, and hours. It assessed a year's hourly electricity consumption in an office building to understand how load changes daily, weekly, and monthly. The case study was the AirSon office building. Data-driven from the efergy online portal was based on the hourly consumption every year.Results: The results show that the outdoor temperature, working hours, and consumption behavior can affect the overall electricity consumption and peak loads. Efficient building strategies are crucial for reducing peak loads by smartly controlling indoor temperature and managing electricity demand. The analysis offers insights into office building electricity consumption patterns and recommends strategies such as prioritizing car charging, optimizing the heat pump's operation of the HVAC system, improving the electricity management system, and using energy storage systems to reduce peak load.Discussion: The findings from this analysis carry implications for electricity consumption. It can provide some insights for reducing electricity consumption and enhancing efficiency in office buildings and similar facilities and also prioritization and rescheduling car chargers. In conclusion, it has interpreted and discussed the various electricity-saving strategies and their potential impact on electricity management.
