The Evolution of Building Management Systems

  • Summary

  • Mark, Clayton, and Rich discuss the evolution of the building management system. Our subject matter experts Mark and Rich discuss the BMS industry and the drastic changes they have seen in their lifetimes. We start off the podcast with the concept of temperature control dating back to the 1600's by a chicken farmer named Cornelius Drebble. Much can be learned from the craftsmen, engineers and techs from the early days of building controls. The need for correct application of P, PI, and PID control, reset calculations and control loop tuning are often ignored, but essential to produce high performing buildings and systems. Throughout the episode we cover topics such as the rise and fall of pneumatic controls, the birth of direct digital controls, the inception of BACnet by the founder Mike Newman, and how open protocols have changed the BMS industry.
