Agenda2
Big change for the last 25 years.
Not only focus on health and safety (BCBC), but also on energy conservation and environment
From Traditional (CV, VAV, FC, HP) to Sustainable, LEED, Green Building design
Displacement Ventilation, Geothermal system, radiant heat/cool system, heat recovery, natural ventilation, solar system, low (or no) flow fixtures, renewal energy, daylighting, storm water reuse, DDC
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), Comfort
Mechanical – Technology in Building Engineering
