Building technology refers to the techniques, materials, and systems used in the design and construction of buildings. It includes everything from the structure and foundation of a building to the utilities and mechanical systems that allow it to function, and the finishes and aesthetic features that make it visually appealing. Building technology encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including architecture, engineering, construction management, and materials science. Some examples of building technologies may include sustainable design features, such as solar panels or geothermal heating systems, or smart home technologies, such as automated lighting and climate control systems.
