Improved occupancy monitoring in non-domestic buildings
Sustainable Cities and Society, 2017 Measuring occupancy can facilitate energy efficiency in non-domestic buildings, when control systems are able to adjust heating and cooling based on demand rather than fixed schedules. The variable “occupancy profile” itself is rarely considered as a control system parameter in building energy management systems (BEMS), and this is largely because ...

Material and decision flows in non-domestic building fit-outs [PDF]
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2018 Abstract The built environment is the most resource intensive sector of the economy, accounting for a significant share of the extracted materials and the total waste generated. Within the built environment the most recurrent replacements of building materials and components take place during fit-outs, which are the process of installing interior ...
