Building Management Systems (BMS) Course
Introduction:
Ensuring the proper maintenance of buildings is crucial to their efficient and effective functioning in supporting a wide range of services.
Neglecting maintenance can lead to the deterioration of buildings, resulting in future financial burdens, legal issues, and problems in industrial relations. Furthermore, it can have a detrimental impact on the delivery of services.
Therefore, maintaining buildings is vital for effective asset management and overall capital management to achieve agency outputs and institutional outcomes.
Identifying building problems and having a comprehensive understanding of building materials, mechanical systems, and electrical systems are integral parts of the process of preserving and conserving building quality, as well as ensuring facility efficiencies.
Additionally, common causes of building maintenance problems include fungal stains and harmful growth, erosion of mortar joints, inadequate installation of air-conditioning systems, defects in plastered walls, cracked and leaning walls, faulty rainwater goods systems, delayed floorboards, infestation by insects and termites, and roof defects.
Participants of the program will gain an understanding of the common causes of building defects and learn to develop a framework for managing the necessary maintenance. This approach will provide consistency in the planning, management, and reporting of building maintenance.
Course Objectives:
Upon the successful completion of the course, participants will be able to:-
- Operate the correct procedure in solving the problems with reinforced concrete structures, building materials caused by moisture or water, defects from the roofing system, sanitary system, plumbing system
- Identify the defects liability and product warranty, duties of defects management and common building defects problem
- Develop the basic framework for defects and maintenance management as well as the system for reporting and monitoring
- Practice and apply safety maintenance, water drainage procedure, and piping maintenance
- Know what facilities maintenance management is and be able to review the universal maintenance goals and objectives
- Understand the concept of the maintenance dimension including the demand for construction work, building maintenance in the construction industry, government policy and maintenance cost trends
- Analyze the maintenance organizations which comprises of the context within which maintenance exists as well as its maintenance policy framework & other issues
- Determine the design/maintenance relationship considering their performance requirements, construction, life cycle costing and maintenance feedback
- Describe the nature of maintenance work and identify its various types, classification, and applications
- Understand the principle of information management used in building & facilities and be able to introduce information systems
- Improve maintenance planning methodology by reviewing its principles, techniques, and programs
- Develop in-depth knowledge on maintenance contracts including the types of service contracts, contractor selection & documentation, and jobbing agreement
- Learn the techniques in cost estimating and budgeting and be able to recognize their importance in building & facilities maintenance management
