"ASHRAE Guideline 13-2014, Specifying Building Automation Systems," includes background information, recommendations for good practice, project considerations and detailed discussion of options with respect to the design of a BAS system, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
“The guideline defines three levels of performance monitoring and provides criteria for each level,” Dave Kahn, chair of the Guideline 13 committee, said in the article.
“This allows even the basic systems to realize some performance monitoring benefits.”
