Section 69 of 103
68. Building BIOS
Stable section ID: S05-CON-015-SECTION-69 · 16 content blocks
The Building BIOS is the authoritative, machine-readable foundational configuration and operational-control layer of a System05 Building.
It establishes the minimum trusted information required to identify the Building, recognize installed systems, validate approved configurations, initialize authorized functions, manage essential states, and support safe operation and recovery.
The Building BIOS may contain or reference:
Building identity and constitutional profile;
installed Node, Cartridge, Module, and Assembly identities;
approved Interface and configuration versions;
authoritative spatial and system relationships;
startup and system-discovery rules;
permitted operational states and transitions;
safety constraints and fallback conditions;
access authority and digital signatures;
verified installation and commissioning status;
current authoritative configuration baseline.
The Building BIOS is authoritative relative to the Digital Twin. The Digital Twin shall be generated and updated from the BIOS baseline together with verified events, inspections, telemetry, and lifecycle records.
The BIOS shall not falsely declare an unverified physical condition complete. Changes shall be authenticated, versioned, traceable, reversible where appropriate, and subject to applicable engineering authority.
Basic structural safety shall not depend on BIOS availability.
