X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:
Join us for Puget Sound ASHRAE's first meeting of Fall 2019!
As more and more jurisdictions and building owners are requiring higher levels of LEED certification for their projects \, design teams are looking beyond traditional HVAC solutions to provide th e energy efficiency needed to maximize LEED points while maintaining occupa nt comfort and safety. In-slab radiant heating systems have enjoyed popula rity both here in the United States and abroad for years. Now\, with the a vailability of improved control systems and better understanding within the design and construction community\, the same concept can be applied to rad iant cooling as an energy-efficient and cost-effective solution. This prog ram will cover the following topics:
Radiant Cooling Heat Transfer Fundamentals
Radiant Cooling Performance/Capacity
Typical Construction Methods
Case Studies
Attendees will gain an understanding of how in-slab radiant cooling syste ms can be used as part of an energy-efficient design solution to maximize E nergy and Atmosphere credits for LEED certification\, and see examples of h ow this has been accomplished on projects both here in the United States an d abroad.

Questions sparked during this networking time will be discussed on sta ge by a dynamic panel of women who lead this region's architecture and engi neering industry.

Panelists include:

J oslyn Balzarini - Principal\, B+H Architects
With her passion for puzzles\, she is a strong advocate for B+Hs Advance Strategy approach that upends the traditional design process and begins instead with an explo ration of the clients business and organizational goals. She believes that when designers drop their egos and start listening to their clients everyon e is happier. Joslyn's data-driven approach allows her to meet people in th eir own space\, witness their daily interactions and immerse herself in the ir culture. She rejects the notion of a pristine\, photo-ready space and in stead believes that the kinds of spaces that support and grow culture and c ommunity at work and at home are meant to be hacked\, pulled apart and put back together in unexpected ways. In Joslyn's experience\, its almost alway s possible to bring in a project under budget when the focus is on culture and performance rather than the proforma.
With over 15 years experienc e in workplace\, hospitality\, multi family\, and mixed use commercial desi gn\, Joslyn heads the interior design practice in Seattle. As she continues to explore and evolve her practice\, Joslyn hopes to place greater emphasi s on designing spaces that support and improve the mental health and well-b eing of their occupants.

Jennifer Fleming - Principal and Own er\, Rice Fergus Miller
Jennifer Fleming is a principal and o wner at Rice Fergus Miller\, a 46 person architecture\, interior design\, p lanning and visualization firm. With over 12 years of experience\, she lead s the hospitality market and is deeply involved in senior housing and healt hcare markets. The interrelationship between these three allows her to seam lessly integrate cues and elements from each to design interiors to suit th e ever-changing needs of today's client. Jennifer is also board member for our local NEWH Northwest Chapter\, a high school mentor through the East Br emerton Rotary sponsored AVID program\, and sits on the Washington State Un iversity School of Design and Construction Advisory Board.

Sh annon Gaffney - Chief Creative Director\, SkB Architects
Shan non Gaffney is the chief creative director and one of the founding principa ls of SkB Architects. Based in Seattle\, Washington\, Shannon is an archite ct\, interior designer and planner shaping a diverse range of places from m ixed-use\, commercial office buildings\, workplace\, restaurants\, retail s paces\, residential and furniture products. Her in-depth knowledge on workp lace design has led to creating not only forward-thinking\, inspiring place s to work but has also led to rethinking typical norms in office building t ypology and social gathering places in the public realm.
Ultimately\, her ability and interest lie in crafting both interior and exterior places with acute attention to human behaviors\, memory-triggers\, and materiality which influence an emotional response to place. Whether outside or in\, la rge or small\, office or residence\; the study of community and city life d ynamics plays a significant role in kick-starting ideas for every project. Generation of those ideas is a rigorous pursuit of many ideas in a short ti me frame\, and a rapid fire design approach to test ideas and to test bound aries. "Some people think out loud\; I draw out loud... and A LOT".

< strong>Rae Anne Rushing - CEO and Co-Founder Rushing Co
Rae A nne Rushing is CEO/Co-Founder of Rushing\, a multi-discipline engineering f irm established in 2006\, delivering integrated mechanical\, electrical/lig hting\, plumbing\, energy\, sustainability\, and commissioning\, based in S eattle\, WA.
Our vision was to provide Integrated Design to Seattle an d the Puget Sound Area. Today Rushing employs 75 and revenues 15+ million a nnually.

Her day to day responsibilities include P rincipal in Charge of approximately 40% of the total business revenue\; as well as providing vision\, corporate leadership\, Brand management and Engi neer of Record quality control and design management. Rae Anne likes to wor k hard and play hard.

Melissa Wechsler - Principal and Partne r\, Runberg Architecture Group
Melissa is passionate about pr omoting urban density as a sustainable approach to population growth. She is committed to architectural design that is sensitive to its urban context with interior spaces carefully considered to enhance the lives of the buil dings inhabitants. Her clear communication skills\, extensive onsite experi ence\, and appreciation for the entire project team add value throughout th e design process. Since joining Runberg Architecture Group in 2006\, Meliss a has worked on a wide range of projects\, including The Chloe\, Expo Apart ments\, The Orion\, Stack House Apartments\, and The Supply Laundry Buildin g. Melissa has also lead several projects executed in collaboration with ot her design firms\, such as 8th & Republican with the Miller | Hull Partners hip\, Google/Lakefront Apartments with Graphite Design Group\, and Lifebrid ge Apartments with Katerra.

The Topic< /span>

Domestic hot wate r production in a multifamily building is the year-round load that is next in line for reduction by efficiency while managing a switch from fossil fue ls to electric heat pumps. The transition requires a re-examination of plan t sizing and distribution. This presentation will address the nature of CO 2 heat pumps\, and how they can be applied to a building type that is commo n in the growth of new buildings in Seattle today.

A CO2 re frigerant offers a significantly lower global-warming potential than standa rd refrigerants. For that reason\, electric utilities promoting heat pumps for their energy efficiency look toward the CO2 refrigerant as possible pa th toward environmentally friendly heat pump solutions.

The Speaker

John Miles is General Manager of the Eco Systems division for Sanden International USA\, and is currently overseein g sales and support of the first commercially available Air to Water CO2 He at Pump Water Heater in North America aimed at Residential and Commercial a pplications.

Loca l Information

After John Miles’ talk\, there will be a few short presentations by some of the people who have been involved in c ompleted and upcoming Seattle multifamily CO2 heat pump installations. Sea ttle City Light will speak very briefly at the end about Seattle City Light funding for multifamily CO2 domestic hot water heat pumps.

Training Descriptio n
Washington state is switching to the ASHRAE Standard 90.1 2016 App endix G modeling protocol this summer\, and the current modeling method bas ed on IECC Chapter C407 will no longer be acceptable. The Seattle code will reference ASHRAE Standard 90.1 2019 and will use carbon emissions as the m etric for demonstrating compliance instead of energy cost. The 90.1 2016 Ap pendix G modeling protocol is also integral to many above-code programs suc h as the EPA ENERGY STAR Multifamily High-rise program and the LEED NC v4 A lternative Performance Rating Method pilot credit. This full day training w ill allow participants to develop an in-depth understanding of the general concepts and technical requirements of the ASHRAE Standard 90.1 2016 Append ix G modeling protocol\, and will highlight the differences introduced in t he 2019 edition of the Standard. The training targets professionals with ar chitectural and engineering backgrounds who would like to obtain a working knowledge of the 90.1 Appendix G modeling protocol in order to perform ener gy modeling\, review modeling-based submittals\, or work with modelers more effectively on a team.

As the commercial building HVAC industry has embraced the global move ment to reduce demand-side energy consumption associated with the condition ing of the indoor environment\, radiant heating/cooling technology has seen a resurgence over the past decade or so. Current HVAC designs incorporate various types of newer and architecturally esthetic radiant elements in the occupied space that in some cases utilize a single heat transfer terminal device to deliver both heating and cooling energy to the space.
This presentation will focus on combination heating and cooling terminal unit applications with an emphasis on the control peripherals employed in their engineering and design. We w ill discuss 6-way valve technology\; how the valve operates\, pressure depe ndent and pressure independent configurations of a 6-way valve\, how to bes t apply 6-way valves to large thermal zones.

Shona O’Dea will provide an overview of the health and cogniti ve function metrics of IAQ called out in the WELL Building Standard and RES ET Standard for Healthy Air.

Speaker:

“I envision a redefinition of sustainable design to a data-driven\, scientific-centric process where bui lding
performance is verified.”

Shona’s focus on efficiency and indoor environmental quality is an important component of DLR
Group’s Performance Design team\, supporting the firm's pursuit of sustainable desi gn and operation.
Her primary goal is to challenge people to think dif ferently about the way they design and operate
buildings\, advising te ams from sustainable goal setting to efficient operations. She uses buildin g
simulation to help designers quantify energy savings and understand the interaction between building
design\, mechanical systems\, and the environment.

“I believe it is important that we as an industry conti nue to think differently about design\, to leverage
sustainability and high performance as the smart thing to do with respect to economic viabili ty\, in
addition to the responsible thing to do for the environment.”< /p>

Born and raised in Ireland\, Shona earned an honors degree in Buildin g Services Engineering from the
Dublin Institute of Technology\, Irela nd's leading sustainable building engineering program\, and moved
to t he Midwest as part of the Atlantis dual master’s program in Sustainability\ , Technology and
Innovation at Purdue University. She currently serves as Young Engineers n ASHRAE Society Chair.

What comes to mind when you think about the word "decarbonization"? Most might immediatel y picture the electric vehicle and the transportation sector. But what abou t the sector that leads the U.S. in carbon emissions? According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 2019\, commercial and residential buildings led the U.S. in carbon emissions\, making up 31% of total emissi ons which tops the transportation sector that accounts for 29% of total emi ssions. Buildings account for a majority of carbon emissions and building d ecarbonization is critical to slowing down climate change. In this panel\, you'll learn about how Washington state has become a leader in building dec arbonization and about ASHRAE's efforts in decarbonization through the ASHR AE Task Force for Building Decarbonization.

Defining and Assessing Resilience

The increasing threat to communities from storms\, floods\, wildfire\, and extreme temperatures has increased the focus on the resilience of the built environment. Merriam-Webster defines resilience as “an ability to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change”. While resilience is a simpl e concept\, incorporating resilience into buildings and communities can be extremely complicated.

To evaluate building and community resilience it can be useful to examine it through a series of lenses\, including perso nal or emotional experience\, financial impact and community impact. This p resentation uses multiple lenses to discuss aspects of resilience (mitigati on\, disruptive events\, response and recovery) in order to understand the ecosystem of standards\, specifications\, and codes used to define and asse ss resilience. Government entities\, industry organizations\, and standards development organizations are developing criteria with which to assess and improve resilience. Many of these criteria have grown out of past work and existing standards that address energy efficiency\, durability and sustain ability. These criteria range in scope from the individual building to the community level. This presentation will review the industry activities curr ently underway to assess and improve the resilience of the built environmen t\, including a review of the progress of code\, standard practice and guid eline development.

As more and mor e jurisdictions and building owners are requiring higher levels of LEED cer tification for their projects\, design teams are looking beyond traditional HVAC solutions to provide the energy efficiency needed to maximize LEED po ints while maintaining occupant comfort and safety. In-slab radiant heatin g systems have enjoyed popularity both here in the United States and abroad for years. Now\, with the availability of improved control systems and be tter understanding within the design and construction community\, the same concept can be applied to radiant cooling as an energy-efficient and cost-e ffective solution. This program will cover the following topics:
Radiant Cooling Heat Transfer Fundamentals
Radiant Cooling Performance/Capacity
Typ ical Construction Methods
Case Studies
Attendees will gain an understanding of how in-sla b radiant cooling systems can be used as part of an energy-efficient design solution to maximize Energy and Atmosphere credits for LEED certification\ , and see examples of how this has been accomplished on projects both here in the United States and abroad.

While the past focus on energy and carbon is more about operational issues\, the new focus will be on Whole Life Carb on. Through strategies related to energy efficiency\, utility source select ion\, and integration of renewable energy\, great progress was made to redu ce operational carbon. Our focus is now moving to the embodied and Whole Li fe Carbon associated with the materials and systems found in the built envi ronment. Embodied carbon looks at the carbon impacts associated with extrac ting\, manufacturing\, and transporting materials to the jobsite\, in addit ion to manufacturing and transportation\, including impacts related to in-u se and end of life. While Life Cycle Analysis (WLCA) accounts for impacts o ver the full lifecycle of a material\, which includes embodied and operatin g carbon\, or\, cradle to grave. A focus is on Upfront Carbon\, or\, Cradle to Gate to understand the carbon impact of different materials. WLCA will greatly impact our work tomorrow. This discussion will include methodologie s in counting of carbon\, examples of different carbon calculations\, and w ays to reduce carbon emission holistically. With the new administration goa l of 1.5°C net zero economy by 2050\, and 2035 all renewable electricity gr id\, we need to accelerate holistic carbon effort to an all-electric\, and net zero future.

Industry relies on industry standards to e stablish the minimum requirements necessary to design\, build and operate f acilities. Some of these standards get adopted by federal\, state\, and loc al governments through legislature as enforceable codes. So where do these standards come from and how do they get developed? Naturally\, first you ne ed a standard for developing standards. This is the job of the American Nat ional Standards Institute\, or ANSI. Surprising to many people\, ANSI does not develop standards. Instead\, ANSI facilitates the development of standa rds by accrediting the processes used by organizations to develop standards related to their respective purviews and community needs. Once accredited by ANSI\, these organizations become “standards development organizations”\ , or SDOs. The role of ANSI is to ensure standards are developed in an open and objective manner that “ensures that all interested and affected partie s have an opportunity to participate in a standard’s development” and that the development process be open\, balanced\, based on consensus and follow due process. This presentation will describe the ANSI standard development process in general\, how this process is used by ASHRAE\, and will use the recent development of ASHRAE Std 90.4 Energy Standard for Data Centers as a case study. It culminates with a discussion on how individuals can partici pate in the development of standards via the public review and comment proc ess.

With the ever-increasing environmental imp acts of local pollution\, extreme weather events and wildfires\, there is a necessity for resilient\, flexible\, and extremely efficient HVAC systems. Unfortunately\, while HVAC systems are critical to our comfort and well-be ing\, conventional systems are costly to operate and contribute to over 50% of total energy usage in commercial buildings. Dedicated outdoor air syste ms (DOAS) are a proven solution for reducing energy consumption since they optimize the control and functionality of ventilation and thermal comfort s eparately. A very high efficiency approach to DOAS maximizes energy efficie ncy by decoupling ventilation air from comfort conditioning\, including air -to-air heat recovery\, right-sizing of a high efficiency heating and cooli ng system and minimizing fan power. This allows for many benefits\, includi ng:
Demonstrated reduction of building HVAC energy use by an ave rage of 69% over conventional systems\,
Excellent indoor air qualit y (IAQ) and thermal comfort\,
Proven flexibility and resiliency to adapt to changing occupant densities\, increased IAQ requirements\, and ext reme weather events\,
Significant carbon emission reduction with mi nimal peak electric demand increases in sites that convert from gas to elec tric heat.
In partnership with local utilities and HVAC experts \, this system approach has been installed and monitored in 12 small-to-med ium commercial buildings\, including in cold climates\, that resulted in an average 69% reduction in HVAC energy use and a 48% reduction in whole-buil ding energy use when compared to a code minimum system (often a packaged RT U). Attendees will learn the cost and energy savings outcomes of these Nort hwest-based projects. Additional topics to discuss include:
WSEC 403.3.5 - Dedicated outdoor air systems
WSEC 406.2.2.6 - High perf ormance DOAS measure (as many as 40 additional energy efficiency credits)
Economics of VHE DOAS vs. WSEC minimum
ERV technologies that achieve 82% sensible recovery (micro-channel counter-flow HX\, advanced ro tary wheel HX\, reciprocating dual-core HX)

Buildings account for approximately 40% of the carbon emissions in the world today which includes the embodied carbon of materials and the operational carbon needed to operate them. As part o f the efforts to decarbonize buildings\, understanding both the embodied ca rbon and the operational carbon of different building systems is paramount to achieving significant reductions in carbon in the built environment.

While initial studies exploring the embodied carbon of buildings focused on the structure and façade as the primary “consumers” of embodied carbon\ , emerging research has shown mechanical\, electrical\, and plumbing system s make up a much larger portion of embodied carbon when considering the tot al lifecycle of the building.
Since no building system is designed is optimized by being considered independent of the other building system (e. g. the building envelope and lighting systems impact the HVAC systems)\, me thods for assessing and reporting the embodied and operational impact of ME P systems is essential to reach a fully decarbonized building.
The ME P 2040 commitment is one way MEP professionals can voluntarily calculate th e impact of their designs on both embodied carbon and operational carbon.
This session will discuss multiple ways to calculate embodied carbon\, nuances of estimating operational carbon\, and identify some of the “low-h anging fruit” in reducing both embodied carbon and operational carbon in bu ildings

Building Decarbonization: Upcoming code requirements for emissions reduction
Reducing or elimi nating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from building operations is emerging as an important goal for architects and engineers in the design of new buil dings and major renovations. Many cities are adopting building performance standards (BPS) and other programs to address GHG emissions in existing bui ldings. This presentation reviews both current and emerging methods and pro cedures for estimating GHG emissions for direct use of fossil fuels\, elect ricity use and non-conventional forms of energy like district energy\, hydr ogen and biomass. Electrification is being accepted as the most viable path for eliminating GHG emissions but\, as the electric grid becomes cleaner a nd incorporates more renewable energy\, when we use electricity becomes mor e important than how much we use. The presentation concludes with a summary of how requirements for GHG emissions are being incorporated into codes an d standards.

The (un)Ethical Engineer: A Study in Prin ciple and Practice
The integrity of the HVAC industry is dependent o n sound technical design\, reliable products\, skilled construction practic e and consistent maintenance and operation. But another critical element th at is sometimes overlooked is professional ethics. As members within the HV AC industry engineers\, contractors\, architects\, manufacturers\, vendors and building owners are expected to exhibit the highest standard of honesty and integrity to safeguard the confidence that the public has in us. In th is very competitive climate\, however\, it is sometimes tempting to "bend t he rules" to some degree in order to gain an advantage over competition or to simply get the job done on time. But how much is too much? Is there a cl early defined line between ethical practice and "just the way things are do ne?" “The (un)Ethical Engineer” is an interactive\, multimedia\, dramatic p resentation that explores these issues through the eyes of a well-intention ed engineer.

Devin Abellon\, P. E. is the Director of Engineered Solutions at Pac West Sales. He h as 30 years of experience in the HVAC and plumbing industries with a focus on high-performance and sustainable building design and construction. He ho lds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from the Univers ity of California at Santa Barbara and is a registered professional enginee r in California and Arizona. He has been an active member of ASHRAE at the chapter\, regional and society levels and currently serves as an ASHRAE Soc iety Vice President\, on ASHRAE’s Planning Committee and the Board of Direc tors DEI Advisory Subcommittee.

AI in HVAC Industry: Past\, Present\, and Future
Presentation Abstract: Early AI appl ications in the HVAC industry started with knowledge-based systems or exper t systems applications for HVAC system selection\, design and fault-diagnos is based on heuristics. At the same time\, data analytics were explored for time-series data analysis for predicting energy use and using BAS data for fault detection and diagnosis. Recent advancements in conversational AI an d machine learning techniques have taken the world by storm where every asp ect of our work and daily lives will be impacted by these next generation A I technologies. During the early 1990'\;s\, knowledge-based systems and AI application promises fell short of expectations in the HVAC industry. Ho wever\, with cloud-based computing\, internet information resources\, and r apid advancements in natural language processing and conversational AI\, th e HVAC industry can now solve many challenging problems with analysis\, des ign and operation. This presentation will review the history\, terminology\ , concepts\, development tools and application of recent advancements in AI for ASHRAE members\; and provide an overview of AI Chatbot and machine lea rning technologies for HVAC industry applications.

The Great ASHRAE Debate: IEQ vs Decarboni zation
The ASHRAE Society Theme for the Year is “Healthy Buildings: Designing for Life”\, which focuses on Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ). 2025-2026 ASHRAE Society President Bill McQuaide states\, “Balancing energy efficiency with good IEQ ensures that buildings are not only environmental ly sustainable but also conducive to the health and productivity of their o ccupants\, creating a win-win situation for both people and the planet.”
The theme highlights some of the tradeoffs between IEQ and other indust ry goals\, like decarbonization. More outside air\, higher filtration\, and greater humidity control all require more energy than the current baseline . For our January Chapter Meeting\, we have assembled a team of the Puget S ound'\;s Top Engineers to debate which side our industry should prioriti ze more: Decarbonization or IEQ.
The Debate Team:
Brian Cawl ey\, PE\, LEED® AP BD+C. Principal\, Mechanical Engineering/Refrigeration\, Hargis

Dan Luddy\, PE\, L EED AP. Building Performance\, Affiliated Engineering\, Inc.

Megan Messick\, PE. Senior Mechanical E ngineer\, Arup

Lewie Tho mson\, PE\, Principal Engineer\, MacDonald-Miller Facility Solutions.

Darren Schwend\, PE\, HFDP\, LEED AP BD+C. Design Principal\, P2S
The Debate will be moderated by Lynndy Hedgcoth\, ASHRAE Puget Sound Chapter President-Elect.

Targeting Success – Improve Employee Satisfaction\ , Retention\, and Profit
AIA App roved | 1 LU | TSIES19

As the building design and con struction industry looks at the composition of the future workforce it is c lear that the demographics of today will need to change to meet future dema nd for employees. It is projected that this change will include increasing the number of women employed in the building design and construction indust ry. We have seen an increase in young women enrolling in STEM disciplines a t the university level and an improvement in the numbers attaining college degrees but we have not seen the same increase in the percent of women empl oyed in the STEM workforce. This inconsistency can be attributed to poor re tention of women once they enter the profession. This presentation will add ress why women leave the industry and what can be done to help increase ret ention. This is an important topic for our industry as a whole as well as f or employers trying to minimize turn-over and maximize productivity and pro fit. Due to the broad topic appeal this has proven to be especially success ful topic for joint meetings with other professional organizations.
