Building Automation & Controls: submittal requirements
Controls submittals are systems documents: architecture diagrams, points lists, and sequences matter more than any single device sheet. Reviewers check that the proposed system actually executes the specified sequences.
What reviewers expect in a building automation & controls package
- System architecture diagram showing controllers, networks, and protocols (BACnet/IP, MS/TP)
- Points list matching the specified sequences point-for-point
- Controller and device product data (sensors, actuators, valves) with ranges and accuracies
- Valve and damper schedules with Cv sizing
- Sequence of operations, marked up from the spec where the contractor proposes changes
- Network security and integration details for owner IT when the spec requires
Field tip
Never submit device sheets without the points list — the sequence-to-points cross-check is the entire review, and its absence turns a two-week review into six.
