Occupancy Phase Commissioning Process

Occupancy Phase Commissioning Process

Occupancy is the final test that determines whether or not the commissioning program was successful. This test will demonstrate whether or not the systems actually meet the needs of the occupants, in every respect, throughout all modes of operation. This is a difficult request, and in some respects, it may be asking for too much to expect to be successful.

Nevertheless, if each step of the commissioning process has been carried out correctly, there is a good chance that the facility will be a great success, with very few flaws, if any at all, and without a doubt none that are major.

However, one must be careful not to exaggerate the conditions that are to be anticipated prior to the initial occupancy of the building. This is due to the fact that the occasion of occupancy does not represent a completely clean transition from a finished and commissioned building to a completely occupied facility that offers an ongoing environment conducive to business as usual.

Moving into a facility before it has been fully commissioned can be done for a variety of perfectly reasonable reasons.

Even though there may be some activities related to the construction phase that are still being carried out, the occupancy and operation phases typically start once substantial completion has been reached and the building has been turned over to the owner.

All activities that were left unfinished from the construction phase are finished during the Occupancy and Operations Phase. During this phase, long-term processes for ensuring the building’s performance over time are developed and implemented. These activities are known as ongoing maintenance and performance activities.

Pre- and post-occupancy Phase Commissioning Process is a training program that was developed by Krishnaji Pawar, an experienced commissioning specialist who specializes in the development of sustainable design strategies for green building certification systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), energy and water conservation, commissioning, environmental impact assessment, and environmental management systems. Pawar is also an expert in the field of environmental management systems.

Construction Phase Commissioning Process

Construction Phase Commissioning Process

The construction phase is the third of the four phases that we have identified for the building systems commissioning process. This phase comes immediately after the design phase and comes before the occupancy and operations phases.

During the construction phase, the commissioning plan (Cx plan), which was updated by the commissioning provider (CxP) during the design phase, is implemented. Consistent interaction between the CxP and the construction team, as well as frequent communication between the CxP and the design team, are essential to the construction phase’s success.

The CxP leads both the larger Commissioning Team (Cx Team) and the smaller Commissioning Provider Group (CxP Group) to ensure commissioning activities are completed correctly and on schedule.

During the construction phase, the CxP is responsible for revising the owner’s project requirements (OPR) or current facility requirements (CFR), updating the commissioning plan, reviewing construction submittals for compliance with the OPR or CFR, distributing checklists to contractors, observing building equipment and system installations, and developing and managing various tests.

After equipment and system start-up, which includes installation and acceptance tests and testing, adjusting, and balancing (TAB), the CxP is responsible for coordinating and scheduling functional performance testing (FPT) and integrated systems testing (IST) with the appropriate Cx Team members.

Krishnaji Pawar, an experienced commissioning specialist who specializes in developing sustainable design strategies for green building certification systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), energy and water conservation, commissioning, environmental impact assessment, and environmental management systems, created the Construction Phase Commissioning Process training program.

Design Phase Commissioning Process

Design Phase Commissioning Process

The design phase is the second of the building systems commissioning process’s four phases that we have identified so far. This phase immediately follows the pre-design phase and comes before the construction phase. Immediately following this phase is the construction phase. It is important to note that the commissioning process for buildings and systems does not identify individual phases of the commissioning process, let alone name them.

If it wasn’t done earlier, during the project’s initiation phase, comprehensive building systems commissioning needs to get started as soon as possible during the design phase. During the design phase of the project, the owner’s investment in the careful planning and preparation performed by the commissioning specialist can result in time and financial savings during later phases of the project.

The commissioning specialist has until the end of this phase to verify that the commissioning plan is complete and up-to-date and that the requirements for the commissioning process of the building systems are correctly documented in the commissioning specification that has been incorporated into the project manual.

It is absolutely necessary to have a commissioning authority (CxA) in order to guarantee the quality of the building commissioning and the construction documents. They are of assistance to the designer in achieving an optimal system design and in making certain that the design concepts meet the performance goals of the owner. CxA places an emphasis on commissionability and functionality while simultaneously attempting to avoid design flaws.

Krishnaji Pawar, an experienced commissioning specialist who specializes in developing sustainable design strategies for green building certification systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), energy and water conservation, commissioning, environmental impact assessment, and environmental management systems, prepared the design phase commissioning process training.

Pre-Design Phase Commissioning Process

Pre-Design Phase Commissioning Process

The predesign phase of a new building project is often overlooked, leading to informally developed ideas and construction costs. Multiple-facility owners often do better than others in analyzing and documenting their objectives. However, a comprehensive building commissioning quality assurance program is essential for refinement.

Owners should develop a predesign process that establishes communication, decision-making, and documentation disciplines, involving all design and construction phases. Involving the commissioning authority early in the predesign phase increases the value of the process.

Building commissioning, on the other hand, refers to the process of checking to see that all of the building’s systems have been correctly installed and are operating as designed. A visit to the location is frequently required for commissioning.

Krishnaji Pawar, an experienced commissioning specialist who specializes in developing sustainable design strategies for green building certification systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), energy and water conservation, commissioning, environmental impact assessment, and environmental management systems, prepared the pre-design phase commissioning process training.

Pre-Design Phase Commissioning Process Learning Objectives

  • Benefits of Early CxA Participation
  • Selecting the Commissioning Authority
  • The Advertisement
  • Owner’s Project Requirements (OPR)
  • Commissioning Plan
  • Communications Plan
  • Project Budget
  • Commissioning Authority Agreement
  • Selection of the Design Professional and Agreement
  • Pre-Design Phase Overview
  • Commissioning Meetings
  • Which building systems are to be commissioned?

During the pre-design phase of the project, the objectives of the commissioning specialists include reviewing the draft Owners Project Requirments (OPR) or Current Facility Requirments (CFR), assembling the commissioning team, and confirming with the owner the building systems that need to be commissioned as well as the scope of commissioning services.

In addition, the provider of commissioning services might provide an overview of the commissioning plan and commissioning specifications, both of which are likely to undergo revisions and additions during the design phase.

When developing the project proposal and writing the commissioning plan, it is essential for the commissioning provider to consult the equipment list, which may change over the course of the duration of the project.

The predesign phase is the first of four distinct stages that make up the process of commissioning building systems, as stated in the Commissioning Specialist Manual for Beyond Smart Cities. These stages are listed in the order listed above. This is the first step in the process of commissioning a building’s system, and it comes before the phase in which the design is done.

Building Commissioning & Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing (TAB)

Building Commissioning & Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing (TAB)

Commissioning is the process of guiding the building owner toward the most efficient system and validating that the installation conforms to the required project specifications, which are prepared based on international codes and the Owner’s specifications.

It is also a methodical procedure that facilitates and ensures the necessary communication, coordination, testing, and verification, and results in the delivery of a building with HVAC systems that function as intended. Effective HVAC commissioning requires collaboration and initiative.

It begins with a design review and is followed by functional performance tests, operator and end-user O&M training sessions, and thorough documentation of the entire HVAC system. The primary objective of commissioning activities is to ensure that the facility handed over will be operated and maintained as intended.

Each type of HVAC system is designed to meet specific performance criteria, such as heating-cooling capacity, a specific airflow rate, and ventilation requirements, among others. The process of Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing consists of three steps to verify that the system complies with the design conditions.

Testing is the collection of activities performed with calibrated testing instruments to measure pressure, fluid (air or water) flow, or temperature in order to validate that the equipment or system performance meets the required system performance.

Adjusting refers to the system’s final configuration, such as setting the valves and volume dampers and marking them with permanent markers, adjusting the fan speeds, adjusting the pump impeller sizes, etc.

Using standard procedures, balancing is the methodical process of fine-tuning system fluid (air or water) flow to achieve the desired system performance.

The training on Building Commissioning & Testing, Adjusting, and Balancing (TAB) was developed by an experienced commissioning expert, Krishnaji Pawar, who specializes in developing sustainable design strategies for Green Building Certification Systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), Energy and Water Conservation, Commissioning, Environmental Impact Assessment, and Environmental Management Systems.

Although exhaustive verification testing of control systems is an essential component of a building that has been fully commissioned, it is not always carried out in every instance.

During this educational Building Commissioning & TAB training, participants will learn about the significance of obtaining complete verification of these vital systems; TAB and its significance; initial testing, adjustment, and balancing; an overview of TAB certification agencies; and how test and balance and commissioning firms can join forces and utilize their combined expertise to carry out the required testing, verification, and documentation.

Energy models help building commissioning optimize HVAC systems, install energy-efficient lighting, and evaluate solar panel performance. Building commissioning and energy modeling should be part of any construction or renovation project.

Commissioning and Measurement & Verification

Commissioning and Measurement &Verification

M&V is the process of measuring and verifying that energy goals for specific projects have been attained. It has become “business as usual” and is frequently required by contract for many utility-sponsored conservation programs and energy performance contracts.

For optimal project outcomes, it appears that the commissioning, measurement, and verification processes should work in tandem. For M&V to serve as a confirmation that energy goals are met, it would be prudent to commission the systems as part of their design and construction. Commissioning contributes to the M&V process by confirming not only that systems physically function properly at the conclusion of construction but also that they will continue to function efficiently throughout their lifetimes.

The training on Commissioning and Measurement and Verification was developed by an experienced commissioning expert, Krishnaji Pawar, who specializes in developing sustainable design strategies for Green Building Certification Systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), Energy and Water Conservation, Commissioning, Environmental Impact Assessment, and Environmental Management Systems.

Measurement and verification (M&V) is the next-to-last step in the technical commissioning process, which is covered in this course. M&V involves utilizing industry-standard tools and processes to check and ensure that occupied facilities (whether a single building or a group of structures) perform at the owner’s desired level of resource efficiency, and to determine what steps can be taken if the desired level has not been reached.

The Commissioning and Measurement and Verification training program will provide you with the utility strategies, commissioning In ESPC, and integrating the energy savings verification process necessary to develop your skills if you are interested in expanding your knowledge of the commissioning and M&V processes.

This introductory course will use scenarios to demonstrate the similarities and differences between Commissioning and Measurement & Verification (M&V), as well as how the two services can be integrated on projects to maximize building performance. Specific instances will illustrate the application of learning objectives to both new construction and existing building applications.

A building is designed, constructed, and commissioned in accordance with the OPR in the best-case scenario. The owner then takes possession of the building, uses it as it was intended to be used, and enjoys a structure whose performance falls within a range of acceptable OPR parameters. In this situation, the M&V process is little more than an academic exercise that measures and verifies the expected outcome of a successful commissioning process.

Participants will be able to better coordinate Commissioning activities and meet owner expectations for projects with energy performance project requirements as a result of this lesson.

Learning Objectives

  • Introduction and Course Outline
  • Utility Strategies for Energy Efficiency
  • Commissioning In Energy Savings Performance Contracts
  • Why Commission With M&V?
  • Existing Building Commissioning M&V requirements
  • Integrating the Energy Savings Verification Process
  • Summary and Resources

Energy models help building commissioning optimize HVAC systems, install energy-efficient lighting, and evaluate solar panel performance. Building commissioning and energy modeling should be part of any construction or renovation project.

Commissioning the Building Energy Model

Commissioning the Building Energy Model Training

Building commissioning and energy modeling are two processes that are complementary to one another and work together to optimize the performance of buildings and achieve savings in energy consumption.

Building owners can achieve even greater energy savings and ensure that their building is operating at peak performance by using energy models to identify potential opportunities for energy savings, validate the performance of building systems, and evaluate the performance of the building after the commissioning process has been completed. These three steps make up the energy modeling process.

Optimising heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, installing energy-efficient lighting, and evaluating the performance of solar panels are just some specific examples of how building commissioning works best with energy models. As a result of this, building owners should think about including building commissioning and energy modeling in any project involving the construction or renovation of their properties.

Building commissioning, on the other hand, refers to the process of checking to see that all of the building’s systems have been correctly installed and are operating as designed. A visit to the location is frequently required for commissioning.

When these two processes are combined, building owners have the opportunity to realize even greater reductions in their building’s energy consumption and to ensure that their structure is performing at its absolute best. In this class, we will investigate the most effective ways to use energy models for building commissioning, complete with numerous concrete examples.

The Commissioning the Building Energy Model training was prepared by an experienced commissioning specialist—Krishnaji Pawar, who specialises in developing sustainable design strategies for Green Building Certification Systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), Energy & Water Conservation, Commissioning, Environmental Impact Assessment, and Environmental Management Systems.

Learning Objectives

  • Commissioning the Building Energy Model
  • Building Energy Models: Theoretical or Predicting the Actual?
  • Why do we have a Building Energy Model?
  • Why Commission the Energy Model?
  • Using Energy Models for Building Commissioning
  • Different applications of Building-level models for Commissioning
  • Summary and resources

Although the Commissioning the Building Energy Model is primarily intended for building owners and developers, architects, engineers, and green building consultants may also benefit from taking it. The course’s primary focus is on the advantages of building commissioning and Building Energy modeling. Commissioning and energy modeling are two processes that are complementary to one another and work together to optimize the performance of the building and achieve savings in energy consumption.

Energy modeling and building commissioning work together to improve building performance and save energy. Building owners can maximize energy savings and building performance by using energy models to identify energy savings opportunities, validate building system performance, and evaluate building performance after commissioning.

Energy models help building commissioning optimize HVAC systems, install energy-efficient lighting, and evaluate solar panel performance. Building commissioning and energy modeling should be part of any construction or renovation project.

Building Enclosure Commissioning 

Building Enclosure Commissioning -BECx

Building Enclosure Commissioning, abbreviated as BECx (sometimes the term “envelope” is used instead of “enclosure”), is a rigorous process with a strong emphasis on quality in which the energy performance of a facility, system, or assembly is evaluated and verified in comparison to predetermined goals and standards.

A commissioning team is responsible for carrying out the process itself. This team employs trustworthy and precise measurements to ensure that the project is satisfying the particular quality requirements that were defined by the owner of the project. The commissioning process starts when the project is first conceived and continues on during the many construction phases. These phases include the pre-design phase, the pre-construction phase, and the construction phase.

Building enclosure commissioning enables a third-party enclosure specialist to represent the best interests of the owner in order to ensure that the performance of the building envelope matches the intent of both the owner and the designer. The additional layer of evaluation carried out during the design, building, and post-occupancy phases of the project gives the entire project team the peace of mind that comes from knowing that the envelope will function as intended.

The Building Enclosure Commissioning Training Course was prepared by Krishnaji Pawar, CEO and founder of Beyond Smart Cities.

This course focuses on building enclosure commissioning, which is essential for sustainable building. It covers the pre-design phase, design phase, building phase, occupancy and operations phases, and owner training and maintenance. The course emphasizes the importance of knowledge and collaboration in building enclosure commissioning, as projects become more complex and less uniform due to unique structures. Building enclosure commissioning is a crucial component of high-performance buildings.Who should attend this Course

Although the primary focus of this course is on the benefits of building enclosure commissioning to building owners and developers, the information presented is beneficial to anyone interested in sustainable building or green building, including architects, engineers, sustainability consultants, and commissioning engineers.

Learning objectives

  • What exactly is meant by the term “building enclosure commissioning”?
  • Establish a clear distinction between building enclosure commissioning and the commissioning of other systems and envelope services.
  • Enclosure of the building, the commissioning process’s goals, and its benefits
  • Explain the goals that should be accomplished through a thorough enclosure commissioning procedure.
  • Appreciate the many benefits that enclosure commissioning offers to the owners of buildings.
