[Bldg-sim] G3.1.2.5 Clarification

Section G.3.1.2.5 in 90.1-2007 has added an exception to the "shall be the same" for models with demand controlled ventilation in the proposed that is not required by Section 6.4.3.9.

That alone is kind of confusing since it does not address what the values should be when they are allowed to not be the same.

I think they are trying to resolve the intersection of projects that use more OA than Std 62.1 and utilize demand controlled ventilation.
The most recent Trane Engineers broadcast promised more changes coming to this section (as addendum DA?) but I do not have anything published to reference.

I agree.  Standard 61.1 sets the minimum acceptable ventilation rate.  The design ventilation rate can be higher, and the baseline rate should be the same as the real design.


Best regards,

In my opinion:

For LEED, the OA should increase 30% first. This is the propose requirement.

Then for energy model, the baseline model should equal to proposed, which means the baseline OA is also 30% more than 62.1 requirement.

Hello,

G3.1.2.5 states that minimum ventilation rates will be the same for proposed building and baseline building. Does it mean that if my building design OA rate is increased by 30%, my model will still be based on the minimum OA required by 62.1 and is still equal to the baseline building OA? Meaning my proposed building wont be penalized by supplying more OA?


Thanks in advance.
