This seminar provides insight into the revised ASHRAE HVAC Design Guide for Tall Buildings. The previous ASHRAE definition of a tall building is a building that is taller than 300ft (100m). The scope of ASHRAE’s subcommittee for tall buildings has been revised to include mega-tall, 300m, and super-tall, 600m, buildings. With the increase of a building’s height come engineering challenges which must be resolved, and the revised Design Guide includes additional data on vertical climate changes, façade engineering and fire and life safety, among others.
