SUMMARY:Building Envelope Assessment
DESCRIPTION:In these classes\, we will learn how to assess the most common 
 commercial building envelope assemblies for energy saving opportunities. 
  We will also discuss challenges and potential risks with envelope improve
 ments\, how to identify and mitigate them. Finally\, we will discuss the t
 ools used to evaluate and prioritize building envelope opportunities in an
  existing commercial or institutional building.\n\nJune 14\, 2023 NOON - 2

 ing - general\n 	Attic insulation\n 	HVAC equip in attic\n 	New and retrof
 it windows- single pane glass and glass block\, solar gain and high intern
 al loads\n 	Insulating basements and crawlspaces\n 	Roof insulation\n 	Uni
 nsulated concrete or CMU above grade\n 	Opportunities at End of useful lif
 e\, capital improvements\, upcoming renovations\, reuse materials (new ave

SUMMARY:ASHRAE Guideline 36: Best in Class HVAC Control Sequences
DESCRIPTION:Registration will open in February.  To receive a notification
  when it does\, subscribe to our mailing list.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nASHRAE Guidel
 ine 36\, High-Performance Sequences of Operation for HVAC Systems\, was cr
 eated to develop and maintain best-in-class standardized HVAC control sequ
 ences. This guideline is all about the concept of “less is more.” It a
 llows engineers to reduce engineering time by adapting standard sequences 
 already proven to perform. It minimizes programming and commissioning time
  for contractors. ASHRAE Guideline 36 reduces energy consumption\, cost\, 
 and system downtime with more resilient systems\, control sequence complia
 nce\, and diagnostic software. The guideline also promotes communication b
 etween specifiers\, contractors\, and operators by creating a language of 
 common terms.\n\nThis course introduces the current version of ASHRAE Guid
 eline 36. The discussion will include the research underlying the current 
 sequences and ongoing and planned future research intended to develop addi
 tional advanced sequences for other HVAC system types. In this course\, at
 tendees will learn about the ASHRAE Guideline 36 sequences and how they im
 prove energy efficiency\, thermal comfort\, and indoor air quality. Atten
 dees will also learn how to specify sequences for this guideline.\n\nParti
 cipants may want to purchase a copy of the related publication ASHRAE Guid
 eline 36-2021 -- High-Performance Sequences of Operation for HVAC Systems.
 \n\nASHRAE will provide Certificates of Attendance specifying Professional
  Development Hours (PDHs) and Learning Units (LUs) to course participants.
  ASHRAE is an approved Continuing Education provider for the American Inst
 itute of Architects (AIA) and a USGBC Education Partner. Continuing Educat
 ion hours earned from ASHRAE courses may be applied toward renewal of stat
 e-licensed professionals and maintenance of LEED® professional credential
 s.
