Cluster 2 — Engineering & Building Systems
The technical systems engineered into and serving buildings, plus their operation and maintenance.
About this cluster
The technical systems engineered into and serving buildings, plus their operation and maintenance. Cluster 2 groups the 14 sectors below under one coordinated technical programme, phased across three waves.
Cluster structure
- A Cluster Lead coordinates the cluster’s committees and sits on the Technical Standards Council.
- Sector Committees — one per active sector — each with a charter, an annual work plan and at least one deliverable per year.
- Cross-cutting working groups link shared themes across clusters.
