This paper provides an overview of a data model developed to capture data for re-use throughout a building’s life-cycle to meet the specific needs of a building commissioning agent. The paper first discusses the necessity for such a model and identifies related background work. The paper then identifies the key components of the data model, including use cases, assumptions and dependencies, and model validation. In conclusion, the paper provides observations on this model and how it relates to other related efforts.
