Today’s design engineers must consider security and resilience concerns beyond the threat of bombs and hazardous spills.

An unexpected heating system failure on the south side of a K-8, one-story series of classrooms resulted in no hot water heating to the perimeter.

The HVAC system selection and design intent is based on the processed outlined in ASHRAE Handbook 2020, Chapter 1, “HVAC System Analysis and Selection.”

A book boasting 35 years of practical industry experience. 

The diversity of an employee’s goals and expectations is just as important as his or her ethnicity or gender.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a major convention center located in the southern part of the U.S. has put together an IPD team to update the policy and procedure (P&P) manual with “lessons-learned” over the past 18 months.

A to-do list worth considering when designing a boiler installation project.

A finalized system selection shall consider a central plant heating versus decentralized heating plants, and all specialized systems shall include general exhaust, boiler flue exhaust, and boiler plant ventilation.

The system includes a 2,000-ton open cooling tower with six condenser water pumps and four 500-ton centrifugal electric chillers with two condenser water pumps for process chilled water cooling.

When designing cooling towers for HVAC project applications, here are a few things I consider.
