1. Future-proofing a chilled-water system
Chilled-water system design often focuses on the proper initial operation of the system. However, understanding—and planning for—changes that occur as the system ages is critical to designing a chilled-water system that will operate properly for years to come.
2. VRF: Overcoming challenges to achieve high efficiency
Variable refrigerant flow systems can result in effective, high-efficiency HVAC designs, but care must be taken to achieve proper ventilation, humidity control, and compliance with ASHRAE Standard 15.

The 2018 40 Under 40 winners are full of knowledge, innovation, and exceptional dedication to buildings and engineering.
4. Selecting the correct clean agent suppression system

5. NFPA 92 guides smoke control system design
NFPA 92 is the starting point for any smoke control system, but too frequently it is assumed to be the only standard by which to judge smoke control calculations.
