The Building Services Handbook summarises concisely, in diagrams and brief explanations, all elements of building services. Practice, techniques and procedures are clearly defined with supplementary references to regulations and relevant standards. This is an essential text for all construction/building services students up to undergraduate level, and is also a valuable reference text for building service professionals. This new book is based on Fred Hall's 'Essential Building Services and Equipment 2ed' and has been thoroughly updated throughout. It is a companion volume to the highly popular textbook 'Building Construction Handbook' by Chudley and Greeno, which is now in its fourth edition.

The role and influence of building services engineers is undergoing rapid change and is pivotal to achieving low-carbon buildings. However, textbooks in the field have largely focused on the detailed technicalities of HVAC systems, often with little wider context. This book addresses that need by embracing a contemporary understanding of energy efficiency imperatives, together with a strategic approach to the key design issues impacting upon carbon performance, in a concise manner. The key conceptual design issues for planning the principal systems that influence energy efficiency are examined in detail. In addition, the following issues are addressed in turn: Background issues for sustainability and the design process Developing a strategic approach to energy-efficient design How to undertake load assessments System comparison and selection Space planning for services Post-occupancy evaluation of completed building services In order to deliver sustainable buildings, a new perspective is needed amongst building and services engineering designers, from the outset of the conceptual design stage and throughout the whole design process. In this book, students and practitioners alike will find the ideal introduction to this new approach.

In the intricate web of urban landscapes, where steel and concrete meet the aspirations of millions, building services emerge as the unsung heroes. Behind every illuminated skyline, every smoothly running facility, and every climate-controlled space, there exists a complex network of systems designed to enhance lives, foster sustainability, and shape the cities of our dreams. This exploration into the realm of building services ventures beyond the visible facades, unveiling the intricate mechanisms that power our modern societies. The journey we embark upon in these chapters is one of discovery and enlightenment. We delve into the heart of sustainable practices, embracing the urgent call of our planet to tread lightly and responsibly. We champion inclusivity, ensuring that the benefits of progress are not confined but shared equitably among all citizens. We marvel at the innovations that fuse technology with tradition, ushering in an era where the cities we inhabit are not just functional spaces but thriving, interconnected communities. Through the lens of building services, we witness the intersection of human ingenuity, environmental stewardship, and societal progress. We celebrate the triumphs of collaborative efforts, where governments, industries, and communities converge to build resilient, inclusive, and sustainable urban spaces. We confront the challenges that lie ahead, acknowledging the complexities of our world while embracing the limitless possibilities of innovation and cooperation. This journey is not just a testament to the transformative power of building services but a profound exploration of the human spirit. It is a reminder that every decision, every innovation, and every act of conscious living shapes the cities we call home and the world we bequeath to future generations. As we navigate the pages that follow, let us embark on this voyage with open minds and hearts, ready to unravel the mysteries of building services and, in doing so, contribute to the creation of a better, more sustainable world for all.

This book provides a comprehensive, systematic overview of original theoretical, experimental, and numerical studies in the building services engineering domain. It brings together different strands of the topic, guided by the two key features of energy savings and reduction of the pollutant emissions. Technical, economic, and energy efficiency aspects related to the design, modelling, optimisation, and operation of diverse building services systems are explored. This book includes various theoretical studies, numerical and optimisation models, experiments, and applications in this field, giving an emphasis to: indoor environment quality assurance; energy analysis, modelling, and optimisation of heating systems; improving the energy performance of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems; valorising the solar and geothermal energies; analysis of thermal energy storage technologies; hydraulic simulation and optimisation of water distribution systems; and improving the energy efficiency of water pumping. With 11 pedagogically structured chapters, containing numerous illustrations, tables, and examples, this book provides researchers, lecturers, engineers, and graduate students with a thorough guide to building service engineering.
