Meeting/Event Information
Illinois Chapter usually meets once each month, August through June, on Tuesdays. The Chapter’s annual golf outing and fund raiser always takes place in September. Generally 70 to 80 members gather at monthly meetings, which makes them an excellent networking opportunity for members interested in meeting and developing other contacts in the industry.
The State of Illinois requires professional engineers to complete 30 PDHs (Professional Development Hours) of training for license renewal. The Illinois Chapter ASHRAE offers educational programs with more than enough PDHs to help engineers satisfy this requirement.
Presentations from previous Chapter seminars and meetings may be downloaded after logging into the "Member Area." The Illinois Chapter of ASHRAE stores past presentations. You must be a member to access them from this website. If you are not yet a member, sign-up today or contact us for more information.

Presentation:
Introduction to ASHRAE Guideline 36
ASHRAE Guideline 36 “High Performance Sequences of Operation for HVAC Systems” was published in 2018 and updated in 2021. It provides standardized sequences of operation for common HVAC equipment found in commercial buildings, including central plant, air handling units, and terminal units. It aims to deliver direct benefits that include reduced design effort, reduced programming and testing effort, improved air quality, and improved energy performance. It also makes possible additional downstream benefits such as interoperable programming environments, interoperability between programming and energy models and design models, and similar advantages of standardization among common equipment applications.
This presentation reviews the contents of the Guideline, explains how the Guideline is intended to be implemented, reviews the extent of current industry adoption of the Guideline, and shares some “watch-its” related to implementing the Guideline. Attendees should leave the presentation with better understanding of what the Guideline can do, what it cannot do, and what is required from stakeholders if a project decides to adopt Guideline 36 sequences.
