The practice of creating buildings by using processes
that are environmentally responsible throughout a
Green Building building's life-cycle from siting to design,
construction, operation, maintenance, renovation and
deconstruction.
- energy consumption
- GHG emissions
Indoor climate control
- total and peak electricity demand
plays a critical role on:
- need for new energy infrastructure
- grid stability, reliability, and resilience
- occupant comfort & health
Indoor climate plays an
- tenant satisfaction
important role on:
- workplace productivity
Indoor Air Quality Ventilate, Filter, Purify/clean (UV)
Strategies (3)
IAQ Operation Guidelines 40-60% RH, disable DCV, disable HRV/ERV
1 - energy costs

dry-bulb temperature, humidity, wind direction and
Primary weather metrics
speed, solar radiation, also consider timing
measured with a thermometer, commonly called air
Dry-bulb temperature temp, most commonly used metric, effects heat
exchange of a building
- affects building performance: degradation, comfort,
Humidity energy to humidify (winter) or dehumidify (summer)
- measured in relative humidity or humidity ratio
can help or hinder building performance
Wind speed and direction affects: infiltration, natural ventilation, wind-driven
rain, convective heat transfer (building to body)
wind is named from the direction of origin, west wind
Wind Direction Naming
is from the west
weather: short-term atmospheric conditions
Weather vs Climate climate: long-term trends of typical weather
conditions
A: Dry
ASHRAE Climate Zones B: Moist
C: Marine
