Western University Sciences Building: Powered by Core Building Automation
The new Sciences Building at Western University represents a major advancement in smart campus infrastructure, designed to support cutting-edge research, sustainability, and student success. A key contributor to the project’s success was Core Building Automation, whose expert integration of intelligent systems played a pivotal role in meeting and exceeding the client’s expectations.
Core was responsible for the full implementation of the building automation systems, including the design, installation, and commissioning of all controls. Their focus on efficiency, precision, and collaboration ensured that the project was delivered on time, fully functional, and ready for long-term performance.
A central goal of the project was achieving LEED Gold Certification, highlighting the university’s commitment to sustainability. Core’s work directly supported this goal by implementing advanced energy-saving strategies through intelligent HVAC control, lighting automation, and real-time system monitoring. All systems were seamlessly integrated into a centralized Building Automation System (BAS), allowing for efficient facility management and long-term energy savings.
Key automation features include:
- Demand-controlled ventilation and energy-efficient HVAC operation
- Smart lighting with occupancy and daylight sensors
- Centralized monitoring and fault detection analytics
Core Building Automation’s role in this project exemplifies their ability to deliver complex, high-performance solutions while adapting to the evolving needs of modern institutional facilities. Their commitment to quality and sustainability helped Western University realize its vision of a forward-thinking, intelligent building that supports both academic and environmental goals.
