SUMMARY:June 2023 - Chapter Technical Meeting - Applications for Healthy Buildings
DESCRIPTION:Achieving balance among desired goals for indoor air quality (IAQ)\, energy consumption\, and occupant Comfort / Health within the built environment is challenging. ASHRAE endeavors to achieve this through guidelines and standards focused on advancing building science as it relates to environmental quality. This presentation will review the commonly used design guides found in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1\, “Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality.”  \n The current form of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2022 outlines mechanical ventilation procedures to provide acceptable IAQ in buildings: The Ventilation Rate Procedure and the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Procedure. While the Ventilation Rate Procedure provides only a dilution solution for the control of typical offending contaminants for a specified occupancy\, the IAQ Procedure provides a directed approach by reducing and controlling the concentrations of selected air contaminants of concern through both dilution and enhanced air cleaning.  \n Rather than relying only on diluting the concentration of contaminants with outdoor air\, designing with enhanced filtration of both recirculated and ventilation outdoor air can improve IAQ\, reduce airborne infectious disease and enhance cognitive functioning within the occupied space. This presentation will focus on the application of enhanced particle\, gas-phase and biological filtration for compliance with Standard 62.1 and recently published information on the Control of Infectious Aerosols – Standard 241P. An outline of the design aspects to consider will be reviewed\, with the focus on achieving acceptable levels of contaminants of concern within the occupied space while considering the desire to meet healthy building standards and improved cognitive functioning. \nPresented by Brian Monk \nRegister here

SUMMARY:June Lunch Meeting - Diversity\, Equity\, Inclusion and ASHRAE: Does it Really Matter
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, ASHRAE’s Board of Directors approved a Diversity Commitment for the Society and established a Proactive Diversity Task Group with a goal to recommend detailed programs and initiatives seeking to eliminate all forms of discrimination and social injustice\, and proactively drive diversity through all levels within ASHRAE. This led some members to ask “why?” As a technical engineering society\, shouldn’t ASHRAE be focusing its efforts and the efforts of its volunteer members on industry-related research and education\, rather than furthering what some consider to be a political agenda? What role\, if any\, should ASHRAE play when it comes to diversity in the AEC community and social justice? Is there really a problem that needs to be solved? This highly-interactive\, engaging and thought-provoking presentation will tackle these questions head on by: \n  \n• Reviewing ASHRAE’s current Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion initiatives \n• Defining terminology – What exactly does DEI mean? \n• Discussing metrics\, trends\, and research \n• Encouraging a respectful exchange of ideas through an online digital platform than ensures privacy and anonymity. \nPresented by Devin Abellon. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:ASHRAE Oregon and Room for More Presents: Cultivating Inclusive Workplaces
DESCRIPTION:Please join Room for More and ASHRAE Oregon at the PAE Living Building for a panel discussion on inclusive workplaces. The panel will be hosted by four distinguished mechanical engineers at various levels of their careers bringing a diversity of voices to the panel. Refreshments and light bites provided. \n4:30pm – 5:00pm Happy Hour and Networking \n5:00pm – 6:00pm Panelist Discussion \nThis is a hybid event. There will be a teams link for anyone who wishes to join the discussion virtually.  Looking forward to seeing you! \nPlease register here to let us know if you’ll be attending.
