Next-Generation Low-Carbon Buildings: Strategies for Design, Decarbonization, and Electrification (October 07, 2026)

Wed, 07 Oct 2026 16:00:00 GMT

This advanced course is for professional engineers and architects who want to expand their practice to include the design, construction, and operation of zero energy (net zero) buildings. The course will begin with a definition of such a building. The first principle of zero energy design is to make the building as energy efficient as possible. On-site renewable energy systems will then be added to achieve these efficiency goals. If adequate on-site zero energy is not feasible, then options for off-site renewable energy should be explored. The test for zero energy is at the energy meter, so proper commissioning and operator training are critical to success. The zero energy principles outlined above will be presented with case studies and examples showing how other design professionals have met the zero energy goal.

Experienced mechanical engineers are introduced to the unique requirements of healthcare HVAC design and operation. This class gives a very brief overview and introduction of the materials that are covered in the full 6-hr course.

Guideline 36: Best of Class HVAC Control Sequences (October 21, 2026)

Wed, 21 Oct 2026 17:00:00 GMT

ASHRAE Guideline 36, High-Performance Sequences of Operation for HVAC Systems, was created to develop and maintain best-in-class standardized HVAC control sequences. This guideline is all about the concept of “less is more.” It allows engineers to reduce engineering time by adapting standard sequences already proven to perform. It minimizes programming and commissioning time for contractors. ASHRAE Guideline 36 reduces energy consumption, cost, and system downtime with more resilient systems, control sequence compliance, and diagnostic software. The guideline also promotes communication between specifiers, contractors, and operators by creating a language of common terms.
