The course examines the economic analysis of ground source vs. more traditional systems and what is necessary to design an effective and efficient ground source system. The course covers energy analysis\, equipment selection\, drilling technologies\, testing requirements\, hydronic system design and system controls. Participants will learn all that is necessary for the design and installation of a successful ground source heat pump system. \n\n \n  \n\n\n \n\n\n \nDoug Cochrane\, P.Eng.\, CDP\, Member ASHRAE\, LEED® AP\nALI Instructor\n\n \n\n“Updated” Next-Generation Low-Carbon Buildings: Strategies for Design\, Decarbonization\, and Electrification\n\nCourse Length: 3 hours\nThis advanced course is for professional engineers and architects who want to expand their practice to include the design\, construction\, and operation of zero energy (net zero) buildings. The course will begin with a definition of such a building. The first principle of zero energy design is to make the building as energy efficient as possible. On-site renewable energy systems will then be added to achieve these efficiency goals. If adequate on-site zero energy is not feasible\, then options for off-site renewable energy should be explored. The test for zero energy is at the energy meter\, so proper commissioning and operator training are critical to success. The zero energy principles outlined above will be presented with case studies and examples showing how other design professionals have met the zero energy goal.

Zentz! \nCome back to the basics of building design with insight into the origins of industry standards and rules of thumb. Through historical examples\, Douglas illustrates how “physics” can greatly assist occupant comfort and higher overall building performance. \nThis presentation is intended for a mixed audience: members of ASHRAE\, AIA\, USGBC\, BOMA\, Commissioning Agents\, Contractors\, engineers\, Building Owners\, Building Officials\, and Government Officials. \n\n \n \n Meeting RSVP\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Note: Registration will close at 12 noon\, Tuesday 12th PST.Name*\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n Email*\n \n \n Enter Email\n \n \n \n Confirm Email\n \n \n Please Provide your Email AddressPhoneFirmThis field is hidden when viewing the formWhich Meeting Are You Signing Up For?*May 13\, 2026Pay Now Online or Pay at Meeting*\n \n \n Pay Online - $35.00\n \n \n \n Pay Online Student Member - $10.00\n \n \n \n Pay At the Meeting - $35.00 (Students $10.00)\n You chose to pay $35 online.
