Outdoor Air (i.e. ventilation) is critical to ensuring a productive and healthy indoor environment and is required by building codes and industry standards and is worthy of its own LEED 2009 Credit. In addition, unmanaged Outdoor Air is wasteful and expensive to condition in many regions of the world. This course demonstrates the advantages of measuring and controlling outdoor air intakes versus the traditional approach of relying upon a fixed outdoor air damper position, provides guidelines for the design and resulting control of the airflow monitors, provides a selection criteria for outdoor airflow monitors, and identifies how to apply for the LEED 2009, NC, IEQ Credit 1 – Outdoor Air Delivery Monitoring point using the LEED Online Template.

The goal of this course is to promote the application of outdoor air monitoring and control to improve a building’s indoor environment, pressurization control and energy use.

The target audience for this course is consulting engineers, contractors, owners, facility managers, code officials, architects and LEED project managers with a basic knowledge of HVAC systems.

Learning Objectives:
1.           Compare HVAC Systems With and Without Outdoor Airflow Measurement & Control
2.           Design and Apply Outdoor Airflow Measurement and Control Systems
3.           Prepare and Apply for Outdoor Air Delivery Monitoring LEED Point (LEED2009 IEQ- Credit 1)
4.           Specify Outdoor Airflow Monitors

The Palms on Main Building Tour

Wednesday, May 30, 2012    12PM – 1PM

Join us for a tour of The Palms on Main in downtown Columbia, SC at the corner of Main Street and Lady Street. The former Governor’s House hotel (and most recently a Roadway Inn) has been converted into a 54-unit urban apartment building with future restaurant and retail space on the ground floor. The project architects will be available to discuss the project.

Lunch is on your own after the tour…hey, you’re on Main St. with restaurants nearby!

Please RSVP to Tripp Riley by 5pm Tuesday, May 29 if you plan on attendingtriley@studio2lr.com.

We do encourage walking (if you’re close enough…and the weather cooperates) and carpooling, as only street parking is available.
