    Energy Pro 6

    I just spoke with the other PE on staff that has done this and he said to account for each individual system. I personally think it would be OK but the thing, that i forgot, is that the exterior concrete walls change in size as you go up in floors...I'm trying to find short cuts but each is...

    Energy Pro 6

    I was thinking about that too. That's how it is in trace. I have CU-1, 2 and 3 serving the "same" type of rooms CU-1 for floors 2 and 3, CU-2 for 3 and 4, CU-3 for floors 5 and 6. But the thing is when you enter the CU's in Energy Pro 6 you need to add the refrigerant piping line length in...

    crunch time

    This is what my experience was for the Oregon exam. I got there around 7:00am and was probably 3rd in line. The line soon grew to the full crowd of I would say 100-125. It was nice to get there early to be able to sit down and get situated and familiar with the space. Then they take about 30...

    Elevator pressurization and stairwell pressurization fan sizing code/guidelines

    Our company has been working on several jobs that require elevator and stairwell pressurization fans. One of the jobs an engineer used CONtam to model how in the event of a fire the building would behave. Contam is only as good as the inputs you give it but it also considers wind pressure, stack...

The fluid factor is obtained by using the weight of a gallon of water (8.33 lbs.) multiplied by the specific heat of the water (1.0) multiplied by 60 (minutes). This comes...

    Custom framed my PE certificate

    I am only licensed in California, but I can try to recreate a seal for another state. I checked the dimensions of an 11"x14" rectangle in an 18" diameter circle in CAD (something about a square peg and round hole comes to mind), and it barely fits, but doesn't allow for space around the...
