Phrases such as ‘SMART’ city and ‘intelligent infrastructure’ are invariably misrepresented and misused by Buro Happold’s peers and competitors.
The surge in urbanisation and city development around the globe has dramatically increased the importance of planning and deploying low maintenance, scalable and resilient infrastructural ‘arteries’ and service corridors within the urban environment.
It’s now widely recognised that alongside the three primary utility infrastructures (electricity, gas and water) deploying an appropriately specified information communication technology (ICT) infrastructure is critical to the successful development of new & existing towns and cities.
Whilst this fourth utility provides the physical infrastructure that enables national and international voice, data and video interconnectivity, it is increasingly recognised that deploying communications infrastructure to monitor traditional utilities within the confines of the city is equally critical.
Implementing wired and wireless communications technology, buried alongside utility networks or deployed above ground monitoring the public realm provides an urban ‘nervous system’ and an interface between the city’s primary plant and the protocols and city wide operating platforms used to maintain granular control of all aspects of the city’s day to day running, resources and services.
At Buro Happold we take a pragmatic and practical approach to planning and implementing SMART districts and cities for our UK & international portfolio of municipal and private sector clients.
Many of our peers develop master plans based entirely on the conceptual aspects of planning SMART cities, focussing solely on functional technologies and failing to acknowledge the impact of systems architecture on the physical infrastructure.
During the ‘conceptual’ design phase of a new appointment Buro Happold integrate this ‘top down’ functional approach within standard Masterplans; however our holistic view of ‘SMART’ city technology goes much further.
Utilising a combination of in-house and retained expertise we deliver a comprehensive service, covering all aspects of urban technology design, including ICT infrastructural topology and the ‘systems architecture’ required to implement a truly ‘SMART’ city.
This approach enables our consultants to focus on the capability and market value of ‘SMART’ technologies, both present day and those subject to future deployment.

DIFFERENTIATORSSUSTAINABLE INFRASTRUCTUREBuro Happold’s sustainable infrastructure design process supports the increasingly complex portfolio of converged ICT systems required to manage a modern district or city development.
Utilising high bandwidth solutions and open protocols (where appropriate) within these networks can enable a cities critical voice, data and video systems to be converged onto fewer cables, requiring smaller utility corridors and less invasive civil engineering.
For example ‘micro’ duct can be specified for telecommunications backbone cabling and buried utilising a trenchless slot cut technology enabling individual optical fibres to be ‘blown’ into the duct system as and when required.

Smart Grid Key Concepts
SMART GRID Buro Happold already consults on many of the fundamental aspects of the electrical Smart Grid e.g. Smart meters, monitoring systems and power management. However with the addition of an appropriately specified ICT infrastructure, implementing a resilient and profitable Smart Grid can become a reality.
Smart Grid type networks offer the improved routing of power supplies based on real-time condition monitoring of many variables, and therefore providing the operator and customers with significant advantages, such as avoiding overloads, self restoration after black-outs, finer control of generation and more efficient demand-supply matching.
To enable this, smart grids require topologies that support advanced switching capabilities in substations and line monitoring, providing increased automation of the network.
This enhanced topology and control of power flow in turn enables power to be injected into the grid at any point (subject to overvoltage limits on distribution), enabling better integration of smaller decentralised generators, including intermittent renewables.
These generators can be grouped as “virtual power plants” such that their output can be called upon in a fashion akin to more conventional dispatchable loads.

UBIQUITOUS WIRELESS INFRASTRUCTUREBuro Happold consults on the large scale deployment and operation of wireless infrastructure outside the building envelope and within the public realm.
Implementation of the complex hierarchy of wireless infrastructures required to support the SMART city aspirations of most clients far exceed the issues faced during the provision of wireless ‘hotspots’ co located alongside public libraries and coffee shops.
The cost to construct these large scale municipal wireless infrastructures is a significant percentage of their lifetime cost, typically finance is raised through joint venture arrangements.
The technical operation of metropolitan wireless infrastructure is based upon utilising radio communication for both the local wireless service and the back haul pathway to the Internet.
Most wireless access points will only need to be physically cabled to a power supply but a percentage, referred to as aggregation nodes, will require a hard wired connection to the internet.
This approach means that access points must be located within range of each other to form a contiguous pathway back to the aggregation node.

CITY OPERATING SYSTEMSThe term ‘City Operating System’ has become common place when describing a set of control, sensing, and supervisory capabilities in a SMART city environment. Generally undefined the term is used somewhat inconsistently however Buro Happold defines it as encompassing the following capabilities:
• Real time control capability from micro- to macro- level
• An integrated platform for multiple types of sensor and control
• Supervisory and analytical capabilities for large quantities of historical data
• A platform designed to provide data and control to applications developed by third parties utilising API’s.
An example of a common place platform includes systems such as Windows OS and API’s (application programming interfaces) are used as an interface by software components to communicate with each other.
A city operating system can be thought of as being the equivalent in an urban space of a Manufacturing Execution System utilized in an industrial environment.
It combines Building Management Systems (BMS), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), and a cloud computing environment for application hosting, into a single construct.

FUNCTIONAL TECHNOLOGYAs leaders in ICT and infrastructure innovation the team at Buro Happold are conversant with the deployment of fixed line and wireless technologies in both campus and city wide networks.
Utilising this experience our consultants are able challenge standard ICT paradigms ensuring for example:
• Open & or closed networks are deployed as required
• Network nodes such as IP CCTV cameras are deployed with embedded intelligence and localised storage
• Where feasible design solutions incorporate commercial and legislative opportunities for developers and municipalities
Further practical examples of scenarios in which Buro Happold can help management teams achieve their sustainable, financial and technological aspirations through the deployment of intelligent infrastructure include:
• Ubiquitous wireless zones enabling estates management and municipal staff to connect to any system within the metropolitan environment, receiving and transmitting work instruction without wasting time and resources returning to their HQ
• Wireless asset management can be used to track the location and status of plant ensuring maintenance schedules are adhered to and pointless excavations avoided. Tags attached to underground plant can be used as read/write records accessed wirelessly from above ground and linked to GPS and GIS systems
• Telemetry from AMR’s and smart metering systems can be collated and transmitted across local area networks or the internet to remote central locations where data can be interrogated and automated responses initiated including two way control of end user equipment or even the redirection of power generated on local energy grids.
