ASHRAE Research
The ASHRAE Research Strategic Plan centers on the concept of Sustainability. One of the goals of this research is to optimize and make consistent ASHRAE Standards 90, 62, and 55 to achieve measured and verified high system energy efficiency with high indoor environmental quality.
New Package from ASHRAE Gives Users Tools for LEED standards have long been a part of the LEED programs technical requirements, and we are pleased to offer these standards together to best benefit the building industry. -W. Stephen Comstock, ASHRAE publisher The full package includes: ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2004 90.1-2004 Users Manual ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2004,Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality 62.1-2004 Users Manual ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55-2004, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy Advanced Energy Design Guide for Small Office Buildings Advanced Energy Design Guide for Small Retail Buildings Advanced Energy Design Guide for K12 School Buildings Procedures for Commercial Building Energy Audits

Radiant Temperature
Radiant heating or cooling sources do not change the temperature of the air in a space directly. Due to the wavelength of the energy, an object is directly heated or cooled without cooling the air between.

7.6.2.1 Survey Occupants. The purpose of this standard is to ensure that a room, building, etc., is comfortable for a substantial majority (at least 80%) of the occupants. Therefore, an effective way to evaluate the environmental conditions is to survey the occupants. This survey should be performed for every operating mode, in every design condition. This would require a survey check sheet to be provided by the team responsible for validating the thermal environment of the space. The sheet shall have, as a minimum, the following data for the occupant to fill in: Occupants name, date, and time Approximate outside air temperature Clear sky/overcast (if applicable) Seasonal conditions Occupants clothing Occupants activity level Applicable equipment General thermal comfort level Occupants location
