Abstract: A building that uses both technology and process to create a facility that is safe,
healthy and comfortable and enables productivity and well-being of its occupants. With lots
of energy crisis in today‟s world now it‟s important for architects, engineers and construction
managers to make buildings which are energy efficient and intelligent by its functions and as
well as its usage, too. Technologies applied in intelligent buildings will improve the building
environment and functionality for occupants, while reducing operational costs. Smart or
clever buildings, perhaps focus on control systems, but intelligent buildings go far beyond
this. An intelligent building has an implicit logic that effectively evolves with changing user
requirements and technology, ensuring continued and improved intelligent operation,
maintenance and optimization. It exhibits key attributes of environmental sustainability to
benefit present and future generations. An intelligent building system concept recognizes that
the true cost of the building is not its cost of construction; it must include the operating and
maintenance costs over the structure‟s life span. Intelligent buildings yield cost reductions
over all these areas by optimizing energy use through automated control, communication and
management systems. They also guard against repair costs, employee time, productivity loss,
revenue loss and the loss of customers to competitors. Now a day, all heard of „sick-
building‟ syndrome and the misery this can inflict in the workplace in terms of poor health
and lost production. The notion of the Intelligent Building is the modern civil engineer's Big
Idea in tackling these and other such deficiencies. The intelligent building can adapt itself to
maintain an optimized environment. An intelligent building must be smart enough to vary the
environment to suit the users and also to provide various means of communication or
network regardless of whether it is internal or external. At an even more fundamental level
intelligent buildings can cope with social and technological change and also are adaptable to
human needs. This paper provides a review of research era in the area of Intelligent Building
with case studies.

I. INTRODUCTION
A. Definition
An intelligent building can be defined as “the building that combines the best available
concepts, designs, materials, systems and technologies in order to provide an interactive,
adaptive, responsive, integrated and dynamic intelligent environment for achieving the
occupants' objectives over the full life span of the building.”

The use of integrated and managed building control systems with technological
awareness to create healthy and sustainable environment which is flexible, comfortable,
productive, work efficient, secure and cost effective to satisfy the stakeholders needs while
reducing energy and water consumption. This is being driven by conditions such as
sustainability, stakeholders' expectations and the shifting culture towards value rather than
initial cost – so that quality and whole life costs are taken into account.

3) Project Details:
Forum Mall, Bengaluru, India is fitted with a computerized building management system
that „senses‟ where the maximum footfalls are leading and increases the cooling and
ventilation in those areas.
The sensors channels the information to the controllers of the HVAC (heating,
ventilation, and air conditioning, Climate control) systems, which respond accordingly.
Sensors and controllers thus help to optimize the consumption of energy by using
networks to relay intelligent inputs detailing the attributes of the physical environment to
building services systems.
4) Result achieved:
Improved operational efficiency of the entire system with energy savings of 8 to 10%.

Though intelligent buildings have a positive impact on the environment, people and
economy, there can be still a wide scope for enhancement. Owing to the continuous,
evolving technological progress that intelligent buildings can be a part of demands
further exploration.
