Course Description
Vancouver HVAC Design Training – June 2022
HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials | 6 – 8 June 2022
HVAC Design: Level II – Applications | 9 – 10 June 2022
HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials
ASHRAE’s HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials training provides participants with instruction that accelerates their transformation into effective members of a design, construction or facilities maintenance team. Developed by industry-leading professionals selected by ASHRAE, the training provides attendees with the fundamentals and technical aspects of HVAC design. Attendees will gain practical skills and knowledge to design and maintain HVAC systems that can be put to immediate use.
In addition to gaining in-depth knowledge and understanding, attendees will receive real-world examples of HVAC systems based on the renovated ASHRAE Headquarters building. The training also teaches a systematic approach to guide a design team to a solution that optimally meets the client’s expectations. Engineered drawings of the ASHRAE Headquarters renovation will also be discussed so participants are exposed to plan reading and visual understanding of system design.
Who Should Attend
Engineers new to the HVAC industry, including recent engineering graduates lacking practical experience
Facilities managers involved in new construction or major renovation projects
Technicians who would like to gain design knowledge
Architects who want to understand HVAC system design
Sales engineers and HVAC equipment suppliers who want to gain a broad knowledge of HVAC systems
How Your Firm Will Benefit
The training helps attendees understand:
The need to improve overall building performance
The technologies that lead to improved building performance
The economics of sustainable buildings and the roles of the designer and facilities manager
The basic skills needed to design high-performance buildings
The skill set that will be required by designers of the future
Techniques to interact effectively with all design partners (architects, owners, other engineering disciplines) in an integrated design team
The capacity to participate in the design of high-performance buildings
HVAC Design: Level II – Applications
ASHRAE’s HVAC Design: Level II – Applications training provides participants with instruction on HVAC system design. The training is tailored for engineers with advanced experience in the HVAC design field, or those who have completed HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials. Developed by industry-leading professionals, the training provides advanced information that allows practicing engineers and designers an opportunity to expand their exposure to HVAC systems design procedures for a better understanding of system options to save energy.
Who Should Attend
Engineers with HVAC design experience (3–10 years)
Participants who attended the HVAC Design: Level I – Essentials
Architects who want an in-depth understanding of HVAC design
Facilities managers involved in new construction or major renovation projects
Technicians who would like to gain thorough design knowledge
Construction project managers involved with mechanical systems
How Your Firm Will Benefit
The training allows practicing engineers and designers the opportunity to refresh their skills, as well as, expand their exposure to systems and design procedures. Attendees not practicing as designers will be provided with insights into the design process and challenges along with a better understanding of HVAC system options with buildings.
