Trevor’s Answer

Building technology is basically all the cool stuff that makes buildings work and keeps them comfortable - kind of like how your phone has different features that make it useful. There are three main parts:

1. The structure itself - like the bones of the building:
- The walls, floors, and roof that keep everything standing
- Materials like steel, concrete, and wood
- Special designs to handle earthquakes or strong winds

2. The systems that make it comfortable - like the organs of the building:
- Air conditioning and heating to keep the temperature just right
- Plumbing that brings clean water in and takes waste water out
- Electricity for lights, charging your devices, and running appliances
- Elevators and escalators to move people around

3. The smart features - like the building's brain:
- Security systems and cameras
- Internet and WiFi networks
- Smart thermostats that learn when to heat or cool
- Automatic lights that turn on when you enter a room

Think of it like a giant robot that you live or work in - all these parts work together to keep you safe, comfortable, and connected!
