Every month, BACnet International will highlight a resource from
This month's featured TBI resource is the BACnet InThis Guide Spec is derived from the Department of Defense’s document and has been updated and optimized for BACnet projects with contribution from Grant Wichenko of Appin Associates. It covers BACnet objects and services and can be inserted into the Building Automation System (BAS) Designer’s existing Division 23 or 25 specification.
It is a valuable resource for BAS Designers and Specifiers as it will save time, make it easier to develop project documents, and, ultimately, provide the author with a better finished product.
