[Chris Jones]

Re point 2.  Why not work with IBPSA?  Start a local chapter under IBPSA 
USA.  See http://www.ibpsa.org/ibpsa_usa/index.htm


>Hello,
>
>There are two goals I wish to achieve with this e-mail:
>
>1.      Get assistance in selecting an appropriate simulation program for 
>Georgia Tech
>2.      Develop a Building Simulation Program Users Group for Metro 
>Atlanta, Georgia, USA
>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'
>As Utilities Analyst at Georgia Tech my job duties include analyzing past 
>energy consumption, forecasting future consumption, and making design 
>recommendations to reduce consumption for the following:
>
>*       A variety of campus buildings occupying over 10 million square 
>feet, including a couple built before 1900
>*       A central heating and cooling distribution system that had over 30 
>miles of steam mains 20 years ago and has been expanded
>*       A fully enclosed Olympic natatorium
>*       Over 500,000 square feet of research space requiring 100% outside 
>air built in the past five years
>
>Selecting the most appropriate simulation program for Georgia Tech 
>includes evaluating the purchase cost, the capability of simulating the 
>buildings and systems listed above, the availability of environmental data 
>and the learning curve.  Another aid to selection is the ability to visit 
>sites that are using a program.
>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
>Please contact me via e-mail if you are interested in Goal 1, Goal 2 or both.
