  2. Comply with prescriptive requirements of ASHRAE, 90.1-2004
  • option 2:
  1. comply with local codes or DOE (Department of Energy), instead of ASHRAE
  • mandatory: provide occupancy controls for:
    1. class rooms
    2. meeting rooms
    3. break rooms

Code:

  • ASHRAE / IESNA 90.1-2004

  2. Prereq just asks to comply with what is already on the books on Ashrae 90.1 2004. It tosses around a few key terms in it’s various categories- mandatory, prescriptive, and Appendix G: performance alternates..
    as pertains to section 5-10 are
    bldg envelope
    hvac
    water heater
    lighting

    I am not sure we need to know the breakdown thresholds for the test?

    The emphasis will be Appendix G performance alternates in Credit 1

  3. for example, do we need to know the Space by Space method for the performance based lighting density requirements?
