Buildings that Continue to Give, The
Role of Building Intelligence
Volker Hartkopf
NSH 1507
Refreshments 4:15 pm
Talk 4:30 pm
The Center For Building Performance
and Diagnostics inhabits the Robert L Preger
Intelligent Workplace (IW), living (always adapted) and Lived-in Laboratory (monitored
and experienced by students, staff and faculty).
Building on the
experiences with the
IW we are now designing and engineering the Building as Power
Plant/Invention Works (BAPP). This extension of the Margaret Morrison Carnegie
Hall will result in the first building which will generate more energy on sit
than is brought to it in the form of non-renewable resources.
After a brief
introduction of both the IW and the BAPP a special emphasis will be on the
opportunities for collaboration on a current project in the IW: the Information
Technology Enabled Sustainability Test-bed (ITEST) project.
