Seminar 6
Sunday, January 22, 8:00-10:00 AM
Preventing Train Wrecks in Under Floor Air
Distribution Systems through Commissioning
Sponsor: TC 07.09 Building Commissioning
Chair: Karl Stum, P.E., Member, SBE, Vancouver,
WA
SPC Liaison: Jitendra B. Singh, P.E., Member,
J & P Engineers, Linwood, NJ
Too often, under-floor air distribution projects
have unclear requirements for contractors, resulting
in coordination and scheduling problems, as well
as maintaining specified floor pressure problems.
This session addresses how commissioning during
design, construction, balance and functional testing
can mitigate these issues.

Commissioning
Chair: Eli Howard, Member, SMACNA, Chantilly,
VA
APC Liaison: Mohammad H. Hosni, Ph.D.,
Fellow, Kansas State University, Manhattan, KS
ASHRAE 62.1-2004, Ventilation for Acceptable
Indoor Air Quality, contains many changes from
the 2001 standard. The new standard incorporates
more than 15 approved addenda. The methodology
for calculating ventilation rates for buildings
is fundamentally changed for the first time in
15 years. The standard also contains new requirements
for building components and building systems.
This session gives an overview of the requirements
of the 2004 standard with emphasis on the new
requirements.

Symposium HI-02-20
Wednesday, June 26, 10:15 AM - 12:15 PM
Building Commissioning Begins with Design
Intent
Sponsor:TC 09.09 Building Commissioning
Chair: Walter
Grondzik, P.E., Member, Florida A&M University,
Tallahassee, Florida
Recent efforts to update and revise ASHRAE Guideline
1, HVAC Commissioning Process, have underscored
the critical and fundamental role that clearly
defined and documented des ign intent plays in
a successful commissioning outcome. This symposium
presents several views on how design intent may
be obtained, documented, used and connected to
other aspects of the design and commissioning
process. The relationship of design intent to
terms such as "program," "project requirements"
and "basis of design" is explored. Building commissioning
truly begins with design intent.
1. Design Intent and Basis of Design: Clarification
of Terms, Structure and Use
Karl Stum, P.E., Member, CH2M HILL, Portland,
OR
2. Developing
Owner's Project Requirements During Pre-Design

3. The
Responsibilities of the Owner in Defining Design
Intent

4. Design
Intent from the Design Team's Perspective
