[Equest-users] Baseline equipment sizing

[Yazan Abukhait]

The USGBC always look for a proof and it won't be as complicated as some
may think, the options you proposed folk will be okay. Incidentally, for
the proposed model do you also use a 1.15 and 1.25 to oversize the cooling
and heating equipments, I saw differernt designers do it differernt
way, and both views were approved by the USGBC at some instances, do you
folks apply the same ratios for the proposed building? thanks in advance
