BUILDING SAFETY AND SECURITY

▪ When it comes to protecting public buildings, industrial property, or

private houses, structural measures or protection using security
guards often have their limitations. Making additional use of electric
or electronic protective devices is, therefore required. In order to
extend the reaction times, buildings are protected using a concentric
system of layers like those found in an onion – from perimeter
protection to the monitoring of open spaces, facades, and roofs,
right through to the monitoring of indoor spaces.
ELECTRONIC SECURITY DEVICES
SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS

▪ Surveillance cameras are video cameras also called as Closed Circuit

Television (CCTV) camera used for the purpose of observing an area.
They are often connected to a recording device or IP network, and
may be watched by a security guard or law enforcement officer.

▪ Cameras and recording equipment used to be relatively expensive

and required human personnel to monitor camera footage, but
analysis of footage has been made easier by automated software
that organizes digital video footage into a searchable database, and
by video analysis software.
FIRE ALARM SYSTEM

▪ An automatic fire alarm system is designed to detect the unwanted

presence of fire by monitoring environmental changes associated
with combustion.
▪ In general, a fire alarm system is classified as either automatically
actuated, manually actuated, or both.
▪ Automatic fire alarm systems are intended to notify the building
occupants to evacuate in the event of a fire.
BURGLAR ALARM

▪ A burglar alarm is a system designed to detect intrusion –

unauthorized entry– into a building or area. They are also called
security alarms, security systems, alarm systems, intrusion detection
systems, perimeter detection systems, and similar terms.
▪ Burglar alarms are used in residential, commercial, industrial, and
military properties for protection against burglary (theft) or property
damage, as well as personal protection against intruders. Car alarms
likewise protect vehicles and their contents. Prisons also use security
systems for control of inmates.
BURGLAR ALARM

▪ Some alarm systems serve a single purpose of burglary protection;

combination systems provide both fire and intrusion protection.
Intrusion alarm systems may also be combined with closed-circuit
television surveillance systems to automatically record the activities
of intruders, and may interface to access control systems for
electrically locked doors. Systems range from small, self-contained
noisemakers, to complicated, multi-area systems with computer
monitoring and control.
BURGLAR ALARM DESIGN

▪ The most basic alarm consists of one or more sensors to detect

intruders, and an alerting device to indicate the intrusion. However, a
typical premises security alarm employs the following components:
▪ Premises control unit (PCU), or panel
▪ Sensors
▪ Alerting devices
Premises control unit (PCU)

▪ The "brain" of the system, it reads sensor inputs, tracks arm/disarm

status, and signals intrusions. In modern systems, this is typically one
or more computer circuit boards inside a metal enclosure, along with
a power supply.
Sensors

▪ Devices which detect intrusions. Sensors may placed at the perimeter

of the protected area, within it, or both. Sensors can detect intruders
by a variety of methods, such as monitoring doors and windows for
opening, or by monitoring unoccupied interiors for motions, sound,
vibration, or other disturbances.
Alerting devices

▪ These indicate an alarm condition. Most commonly, these are bells,

sirens, and/or flashing lights. Alerting devices serve the dual purposes
of warning occupants of intrusion, and potentially scaring off
burglars.
BURGLAR ALARM SENSOR TYPES
ELECTRONIC ARTICLE SURVEILLANCE

▪ Electronic article surveillance (EAS) is a technological method for

preventing shoplifting from retail stores or pilferage of books from
libraries. Special tags are fixed to merchandise or books. These tags
are removed or deactivated by the clerks when the item is properly
bought or checked out. At the exits of the store, a detection system
sounds an alarm or otherwise alerts the staff when it senses active
tags.
ELECTRONIC LOCK

▪ An electronic lock (or electric lock) is a locking device which operates

by means of electric current. Electric locks are sometimes stand-
alone with an electronic control assembly mounted directly to the
lock.
▪ More often electric locks are connected to an access control system.
▪ The advantages of an electric lock connected to an access control
system include: key control, where keys can be added and removed
without re-keying the lock cylinder; fine access control, where time
and place are factors.
AUTHENTICATION METHOD OF ELECTRONIC
LOCK

▪ Electronic locks offer a variety of means of authentication; those

described below are not considered exhaustive.
▪ Numerical codes, passwords and passphrases
▪ Security tokens
▪ Biometrics
▪ RFID (Radio-frequency identification)
Building Management System

▪ BMS systems are “Intelligent” microprocessor based controller

networks installed to monitor and control a buildings technical
systems and services such as air conditioning, ventilation, lighting
and hydraulics.
▪ More specifically they link the functionality of individual pieces of
building equipment so that they operate as one complete integrated
system.
▪ Now installed in every major building or facility with the availability
of direct integration into all other building services such as security,
access control, CCTV, fire, Lifts and other life and safety systems.
