Course description
Overview
Building controls play a vital role in buildings - from keeping people safe and increasing productivity/wellbeing, to achieving organisational and societal objectives such as reducing carbon and saving energy.
Building controls are so important when it comes to providing measurable data, whether it be on CO2 levels, humidity, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), fine dust, temperature and system performance.
Recognising the data and understanding what the data means and how it can be used is a game-changer for better performing buildings.
