August 29, 2005—A new seminar on ASHRAEs energy efficiency standard is being offered as part of the Societys fall Professional Development Seminar series.
Compliance with ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2004 will take place on Sept. 13 and 14 in Elk Grove Village, Ill. The seminar will guide participants through the history, intent and application of Standard 90.1, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Building, says ASHRAE.
The 2004 standard was significantly revised, resulting in a document with a more readable format that is easier to use for practitioners. New technical requirements and stringency levels are presented in a more consistent format, making them easy to find and apply to building designs.
Wallace and Joseph Deringer, both members of the Standard 90.1 committee, are instructors. The cost is $955 ($855 ASHRAE members).
