Project Summary
The Medical Office Building is located in North-East United States and is to house many medical offices
as well as some examination rooms and a physical therapy area. The building is two stories with a total
square footage of 72,706.
The main heating and cooling of the building will be supplied by two roof top units with a VAV
system to regulate the air in the building. There are also five separate ductless split-system units that will
serve areas that generate more heat than the rest of the building.
Executive Summary
This technical report was created to analyze the Medical Office Building and determine if it meets the
requirements of ASHRAE 62.1-2013 and 90.1-2013.
ASHRAE 62.1 specifies minimum ventilation rates and other requirements to provide an air
quality that is acceptable for human occupation. Since the Medical Office Building is a healthcare facility,
it is very important that the building complies with this standard. This building does comply with 62.1.
There was only one minor specification that was not met and that was bird screens on the intakes of the
roof top units. This can be easily improved post construction if it proves to be a problem.
ASHRAE 90.1 is intended to set minimum requirements for energy efficiency of buildings. Due
to the fact that the Medical Office Building was not intended to obtain a LEED rating, the building
adhered to compliance but did not go above and beyond. The standard requires that there be energy
saving controls on the lights and mechanical units as well as minimizing the amount of air to leak in or
out of the building.

Resistance to Erosion:
This building has sheet metal ducts which are excluded from this
section. The duct liner present in some of the ducts will be coated to prevent the erosion of glass
fibers.
Location:
The closest exhaust fan is exhausting class 2 air and is further than 10 feet away
from the inlet of the roof top units specified in drawings. Other fresh air inlets are located on the
ground floor and there are no exhaust near outlets or loading areas near these inlets.

The climate of the area already has a low humidity so humidifiers have
been added to better control the humidity of the building. Humidity set points are adjustable at the
operators interface station was well as monitoring the relative humidity.

Exfiltration: Exfiltration is easily controlled by the presence of VAV boxes in different zones
to control the amount of air entering the room which can easily be adjusted to keep the building
pressurized.

Breathing Zone Outdoor Airflow (Vbz)
Vbz = Rp Pz + Ra Az
Az = the net occupiable floor area of the ventilation zone (ft2)
Pz = the number of people in the ventilation zone during typical usage
Rp = outdoor airflow rate required per person (table 6.2.2.1)
Ra = outdoor airflow rate required per unit area (table 6.2.2.1)
Zone Outdoor Airflow (Voz)
Voz = Vbz/Ez
Vbz = breathing zone outdoor airflow
Ez = zone air distribution effectiveness is 1.0 due to ceiling supply of cool air

The Medical Office Building is located in North-East United States. This location has very
moist climate which requires that the air be conditioned before it enters the building to improve the
comfort of the occupants.
The building has design elements to reduce air leakage out of the building
such as an air barrier, vestibules at the main entrances of the building, and sealants at all joints around
windows and doors and any other areas that air my possibly leak in.

satisfies the R-30 continuous insulation required for the roof also from table 5.5-5 of ASHRAE 90.1.
According to section 5.5.4 of ASHRAE standard 90.1, vertical fenestration must not exceed 40%
of the total vertical building surfaces and skylights may not exceed 3% of the fenestration of the roof.

The roof top units are equipped with an economizer cycle which will take
into account when the building is occupied and when it is not to adjust the amount of conditioning needed
to save energy. All the ductwork and piping will be insulated to conserve energy and reduce
condensation.
6.5 Economizers:
The economizers are expected to comply with all parts of section 6.5.1.1 which also
have been called out in the specifications. The VAV system in this building will have static pressure
sensors to monitor the air flow through the VAV box.
Section 8: Power
Power to the Medical Office Building will be supplied by a 480/277 3 phase 4 wire source. There will be
a 600KW emergency generator on site to provide emergency power since this is a medical building and
emergency power is very important. The power in this building meets the requirements for voltage drop,
energy monitoring, etc. given in the ASHRAE standard.
Section 9: Lighting
Table 9.5.1 was used to determine the lighting power density for the Medical Office Building. The
building area type used was health-care clinic and the power density for this is 0.90 W/ft2. The total
building area is 72,706 sf.
The building meets the ASHRAE requirements for lighting using different switches to control the lighting
depending on occupancy.
