Summary

This law aims at a better integration of technical equipment (heating, air conditioning) into the building structure. The author briefly summarizes the history of this law and outlines its most debated points in the form of questions and answers. The main points mentioned are: 1. Administrative aspects: relationship between technical report and project file; presentation of the project when applying for the planning permission or for the implementation of works; possible setup of a provincial Office for the preventive examination of projects; problem of variants in the implementation of the project; case of a building with a pre-existing part remaining without change in its structure; practical possibilities of use of the requested software; responsibility in the event of calculation mistake due to possible bugs in the program. 2. Technical aspects: calculation of the regulation coefficients in various cases: re-structuration of equipment, multi-flat building with independent heating facilities, replacement of a heating unit by a new one with a different capacity, remote-control heating, modular heating with fluctuant temperature or condensation; what is to be done when the requested capacity is less than that of the units available on the market?; design of the building when using electric heating; possibility of using existing smoke ducts in case of re-structuration of the building; possibility of designing collective smoke ducts with forced-draught heat generators if those ducts are set up outside the building; is the use of mechanical ventilation compulsory?; value of the air change coefficient.
