Summary
A committee of industry experts assembled by ASHRAE, USGBC (US Green Building Council), and CIBSE (the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers) collaborated to develop this publication. It provides a standardized set of protocols over a range of accuracies and costs that can be applied consistently to the assessment of building performance, in both the United States and internationally. The protocols identify what to measure, how to measure it, and how often it is to be measured for inclusion in the building's operation and maintenance plan. Protocols are developed at three levels for each of six performance categories: energy, water, thermal comfort, indoor air quality (IAQ), lighting, and acoustics. Information presented for each of the six performance measurement categories includes background, definitions of measurement parameters, instrumentation types, analysis and evaluation methods, standards and benchmarks, and limitations as to application of the measurement tools. A range of costs for staff time and instrumentation is also given for each category.
