DESIGN AND APPLICATION

Most building designs provide minimally acceptable indoor environments through compliance with requirements in
building codes and standards. Enhancing IAQ can improve occupant health, comfort, and productivity while increasing
building value and reducing risk for owners. As the industry moves toward high-performance green buildings, building
professionals must become more knowledgeable about principles and methods for achieving enhanced IAQ.
This Guide bridges this gap by focusing on the major IAQ issues: moisture management, ventilation, filtration and air
cleaning, and source control. Equally important, it highlights how design and construction teams can work together to
ensure that good IAQ strategies are incorporated from initial design through project completion.

Indoor Air Quality Guide

Written by experts in the field of indoor air quality (IAQ), the Indoor Air Quality Guide is the most comprehensive and
practical resource ever developed on design and construction for enhanced IAQ. For architects, engineers, and building
owners who want commercial and institutional buildings with high-quality indoor environments, this Guide provides the
strategies needed to achieve good IAQ using proven technologies and without significantly increasing costs.

Indoor Air Quality Guide
Best Practices for Design, Construction,
and Commissioning

Part I of the Guide provides summary guidance and is ideal for a general understanding of the importance of these
major IAQ issues. Part II provides the detailed guidance essential for practitioners to design for and achieve good IAQ.
Throughout Parts I and II are numerous case studies, illustrations, and photographs.
The Part I summary guidance is included in the printed book, and both Part I and Part II are included on the CD in pdf
format. The CD not only provides the information in a searchable and printable form but also includes interactive
hyperlinks from the summary information in Part I to the relevant detailed information in Part II, making the guide both
comprehensive and easy to use.

Best Practices for Designing, Operating, and Owning
Multifamily Buildings
Multifamily buildings have long been overlooked in the broader industry push
for high-performance buildings. In recent years, indoor environmental quality,
especially indoor air quality, has become a greater concern for multifamily buildings.
ASHRAE Design Guide for Low- to Mid-Rise Multifamily Residential Buildings

brings together information from codes, standards, and other guidance to outline

improve energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality of both dwelling units
and common spaces. The guide focuses on new construction but touches on
retrofits and renovations as well. Topics include the impetus behind designing and
building sustainable multifamily buildings, the varying cultural and demographic
factors that might influence building design, and the codes that regulate multifamily
buildings as well as additional guidance for design teams. The book also includes
access to sample design process forms in Microsoft® Excel® format that enable
modification by individual users.
ASHRAE Design Guide for Low- to Mid-Rise Multifamily Residential Buildings
provides practitioners with foundational guidance for improving the energy
performance, indoor environmental quality, sustainability, and overall quality of
low-rise and mid-rise multifamily projects. The recommendations in this guide may

also be useful to building operators and owners seeking better energy performance

This guide not only focuses on the efforts of designers of the HVAC systems but also
addresses the importance of the design team and their collective efforts and concerns that
are the critical elements in determining the ultimate solutions to the project needs of a tall
building. This guide addresses design issues for tall commercial buildings, which are very
often mixed use, with floors for retail, offices, residences, and hotels.

The Guide to Meeting the Challenges of Tall Buildings
Tall (taller than 300 ft [91m]), supertall (taller than 984 ft [300 m]), and megatall (taller
than 1968 ft [600 m]) buildings present unique and formidable challenges to architects
and engineers because of their size, location in major urban areas, and the multiple,
complex occupancies they often contain. ASHRAE Design Guide for Tall, Supertall, and
Megatall Building Systems, Second Edition, is a unique reference for owners; architects;
and mechanical, structural, and electrical engineers as well as other specialized consultants
involved in designing systems for these buildings.
