Bacnet 135-2024: ENERGY SERVICES, SEMANTIC TAGGING, AND MODERN BUILDING AUTOMATION: Implement ASHRAE 223P Data Modeling, BACnet/SC Security, and Smart

By AXEL MCADAMS

Build secure, interoperable BACnet systems that scale, while moving from raw points to energy services and semantic data models.

Modern building automation is no longer only about reading values and writing setpoints. You now have to operate across routed IP networks, handle discovery at scale, secure traffic with BACnet Secure Connect, and integrate energy workflows that demand structure, auditability, and safe control.

This book shows you how to implement BACnet 135 concepts in a developer-friendly way, pairing practical networking and security engineering with semantic tagging and ASHRAE 223P style modeling so your BAS data stays consistent, searchable, and usable across applications.
