Building BIOS Architecture

Configuration Validation determines whether the reconstructed building configuration is complete, internally consistent, permitted, and suitable for the intended operating mode.

Validation shall include:

schema validity;

identity uniqueness;

version consistency;

Interface compatibility;

capability sufficiency;

complete required dependencies;

topology consistency;

spatial consistency;

Engineering Profile compliance;

authorization validity;

certification status;

required inspection status;

unresolved fault status;

safety-system availability;

configuration-signature integrity.

Validation rules shall identify whether a violation is:

informational;

warning;

operational restriction;

activation blocker;

emergency condition.

A missing optional Cartridge may generate a warning. A missing required structural, electrical-protection, fire-safety, or emergency dependency shall block the affected operating mode.

The BIOS shall validate both the complete building and relevant subgraphs. A fault in one isolated zone should not unnecessarily prevent safe operation of independent zones.

The validation report shall identify:

rule violated;

affected entities;

configuration version;

evidence evaluated;

operational consequence;

required corrective action;

responsible authority.

Configuration shall not become authoritative merely because it is syntactically valid. Physical verification and engineering approval shall be required where applicable.
