Integrating the Smart Building strategy into the engineering project work plan

The following article from JG Ingenieros’ Smart Building Series presents a resource for all construction industry professionals, clients and end users seeking guidance on how to incorporate technology into buildings to transform them into Smart Buildings.

This article aims to extract the main concepts and ideas from the document Smart Building Overlay to the RIBA Plan of Work presented by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). The main objective of the document is to encourage discussions on the technology applicable in buildings to achieve the desired Smart level at each stage of work in order to make timely decisions, so that the project aspirations articulated at the beginning are fulfilled at the end.
