Intelligent Building Dictionary:
terminology for smart, integrated, green building design, construction, and management
Intelligent Buildings require cooperation between traditional building trades; building automation; Green Building specialists; experts in new technologies like lighting control, digital signage, and intelligent bathrooms; and Information Technology specialists to integrate building systems and enterprise information systems.

This convergence of disciplines has resulted in an explosion of specialized terms, acronyms, and jargon. Building Intelligence Group created this dictionary to help novices and experts cut through the confusion and understand the vocabulary of this fast growing field.

This dictionary features:

  • Concise definitions for more than 2,500 terms, cross referenced for fast easy access. 
  • Links to sources of additional information.
  • Summary tables and diagrams.
