The new energy code ASHRAE 90.1-2010 has brought about significant changes to the design of commercial buildings, with mandatory lighting controls and commissioning of the required control features. Even a full year after its adoption there are still many questions about the technical provisions of ASHRAE 90.1, in particular the extent of its application for addition and renovation projects and on verification of compliance. Co-presenters Sunny Ghataurah and Ark Tsisserev will address the fundamental questions “What, Why and How” with respect to the application of ASHRAE 90.1 on projects. Sunny will speak about the integration of the energy code into electrical design, and Ark will elaborate on the regulatory aspects in conjunction with this subject. This seminar is suitable for all disciplines involved with the design and construction of commercial projects regulated by BCBC and Vancouver Building By-law (i.e. building codes which adopt ASHRAE 90.1-2010), including Architects, Interior Designers, Electrical Contractors and Engineers. Speakers: Sunny Ghataurah, Director, P.Eng., P.E., CTS, LEED AP BD+C Ark Tsisserev, Senior Technical Manager, MSc., P.Eng., FEC Applied Engineering Solutions www.appliedengineering.ca
