Topic
Creating an Underground Research Facility to Explore the Universe
The presentation will review the research requirements and describe how these were translated into the design scopefor the facility to be located 6,800 feet below ground level. We will walk through the construction challenges andreview the strategies to keep this specialized facility on budget in a challenging underground constructionenvironment. Designing for commissioning and operation will be discussed as well as the commissioningrequirements.
Designing for operational Excellence.
The design of new buildings and building retrofits is critical to the ongoing operation of the building to meet theindoor environment and energy/carbon emission targets. This presentation will focus on the critical issues for thedesign team as well as the effective transition to operations.
Achieving Net Zero Operation in an Existing Building Retrofit – The ASHRAE Headquarters Experience
The presentation will describe the journey from the decision to purchase an existing 1970’s building through thedesign, construction, and commission of the facility. We will then explore how you can transition to effectiveoperations to achieve the energy use targets. We will also explore the challenges and opportunities in theapplication of Intelligent Buildings.
Decarbonization of the Built Environment - How can ASHRAE lead?
The presentation will look at how the ASHRAE standards and guidelines can space the future of the builtenvironment to effect reduction in carbon emissions. We will also look at the impact of ASHRAE governmentoutreach on the legislation and regulations that directly impact the design construction and operation of the builtenvironment.
Reducing Carbon Emissions and Achieving Enhanced Indoor Environments in a Portfolio of Buildings
The presentation will provide a roadmap to evaluate the opportunities to reduce the Energy use and Carbonemissions in existing buildings while improving the indoor environment. The presentation will demonstrate severalevaluation tools that can be used to prioritize the in initiatives to be implemented in each facility.
