Abstract
A building plenum is provided. The building plenum may include an assembly or housing and multiple building utility and safety infrastructures (such as fire, lighting, ventilation, and other building infrastructure). The building plenum may be constructed at a manufacturing facility for subsequent installation in a building. In this way, the building infrastructure may be quickly and efficiently installed in the building, such as by mounting the building plenum on a ceiling as part of a ceiling cover, ceiling tile, or the like. The building plenum may have different configurations (including different building utility and safety infrastructures), different lengths and widths, and different cover appearances (or other ornamentation).
