This Guide Spec is derived from the Department of Defense’s document and has been updated and optimized for BACnet projects with contributions 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 specifications.
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.
The BACnet Guide Spec is available through The BACnet Institute (TBI), BACnet International’s FREE online education environment that serves as a central source for globally relevant information and education related to BACnet. Although access to all of the resources on TBI are free, registration is required.
