Course Objectives: This continuing education course is written specifically for professional engineers with the objective of relating to and enhancing the practice of engineering.

Course Description:

Kitchen ventilation systems require the engineer to look at both the supply and exhaust requirements of the system in order to meet several design criteria. Codes and standards dictate the performance effectiveness of the exhaust of the kitchen as accomplished through a variety of types and styles of hoods. This course provides an insight to some state-of-the-art considerations in commercial kitchen ventilation design.

Course Objectives: This continuing education course is written specifically for professional engineers with the objective of relating to and enhancing the practice of engineering.

Course Description:

Variable Air Volume (VAV) systems have been used for many years in commercial HVAC systems for a variety of reasons. Energy savings in HVAC systems is where the future of good engineering needs to focus. This course provides considerations for utilizing variable air volume systems in laboratories where safety is of concern both at the hoods and within the room in relationship to adjacent rooms.

146-Fabric Air Distribution

Course Objectives: This continuing education course is written specifically for professional engineers with the objective of relating to and enhancing the practice of engineering.

Course Description:

Air distribution in America has been undergoing a material change over the past few years, literally. Engineers, interior designers, architects, facility owners and contractors have found that the use of fabric material ducts has provided the technical answer to air distribution problems that traditional sheet metal ducts haven't been able to achieve without significant additional cost. The use of fabric air distribution systems can be a paradigm shift that sets stagnant engineering and architectural minds in motion on a building design team. This course provides material for consideration when fabric air distribution systems are used in HVAC systems.

147-Airdoor Fundamentals and Applications

(4) 4 Reviews

1 $22.50

Add Course to Cart

Course Objectives: This continuing education course is written specifically for professional engineers with the objective of relating to and enhancing the practice of engineering.

Course Description:

An opening in a building wall allows passage of people, material and/or light between two spaces. A door or curtain provides a physical barrier in the opening. Airdoors/air curtains also provide a barrier. This course will review some of the fundamentals of airdoor (air curtain) applications. The course will provide examples of where airdoors can be utilized and give suggestions on design considerations for selecting, sizing and specifying airdoors.

148-Seismic & Wind Information HVAC Engineers Should Know

(4.5) 11 Reviews

1 $22.50

Add Course to Cart

Course Objectives: This continuing education course is written specifically for professional engineers with the objective of relating to and enhancing the practice of engineering.

Course Description:

Every building is at risk of being subject to some form of "act of God" by natural forces on the earth. Sometimes these forces are predictable based on expectations developed by past history. This course covers some of the basics of understanding the codes and standards that have put the responsibility of designing buildings to protect against wind and seismic events on the shoulders of professional engineers while at the same time outlining duties and responsibilities of facility owners, code authorities, equipment manufacturers and installing contractors.
