**2. Building Medicine**

Building Medicine is a new management perspective, which is mainly applied to the management of buildings' health (including home living environments.) In the field of engineering, the discussion on building health management used to be only limited to proposals of ideas that the engineering field should learn from health management practices of human medicine. In contrast with these general ideas, the discipline of Building Medicine not only fully defines how to apply the model of human health management analogously, but also develops application tools based on its theories, such as Building Diseases Classification (BDC), Building Medical Record (BMR), Building Doctor Navigation System (BDNS), Building Physiology Information System (BPIS) and Building Health Diagnosis (BHD).
