ASHRAE Standard189.1-2009
for High Performance Green Buildings by Thomas M. Lawrence, Ph.D., P.E.,
LEED AP
ASHRAE has developed a new standard for High Performance,
Green Buildings (Standard 189.1-2009). The Standard provides the minimum
requirements for a high-performance green building, and was developed with
the intent to provide a balance of environmental factors involved with
designing, building, and planning for the operation of buildings. This
session provides a detailed look at the standard, the background on its
development and what is foreseen for its application and ultimate
adoption.
Dr. Lawrence is a Senior Public Service Associate with the
University of Georgia, and has 30 years of professional experience in
engineering and environmentally related fields. Before going back for his
Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at Purdue, he spent approximately 20 of
those years in industry and consulting. He is the chair of ASHRAE
Technical Committee 2.8, “Building Environmental Impact and
Sustainability”, and is a member of the committee which wrote the ASHRAE
standard on high performance green buildings (Standard 189.1). As an
ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer, he gives presentations and workshops on
green building design at venues around the world.
