    15.01 Safety Factors

    A. Room/Space Peak Loads 1.1 Calc. Load

    B. Floor/Zone Loads (Sum of Peak) 1.0

    Calc. Load

    C. Floor/Zone Loads (Block) 1.1 Calc. Load

    D. Building Loads (Sum of Peak) 1.0 Calc. Load

    E. Building Loads (Block) 1.1 Calc. Load

    F. Generally: Sum of Peak Loads = 1.1 Block Loads

    15.02 Heating Load Credits

    A. Solar. Credit for solar gains should not be taken unless building is specifically

    designed for solar heating. Solar gain is not a factor at night when design tempera-

    tures generally reach their lowest point.

    B. People. Credit for people should not be taken. People gain is not a factor at night

    when design temperatures generally reach their lowest point because buildings are

    generally unoccupied at night.

    C. Lighting. Credit for lighting should not be taken. Lighting is an inefficient means

    to heat a building and lights are generally off at night when design temperatures

    generally reach their lowest point.

    D. Equipment. Credit for equipment should not be taken unless a reliable source of

    heat is generated 24 hours a day (i.e., Computer Facility, Industrial Process). Only a

    portion of this load should be considered (50%) and the building heating system

    should be able to keep the building from freezing if these equipment loads are shut

    down for extended periods of time. Consider what would happen if the system or

    process shut down for extended periods of time.

    15.03 Heating System Selection Guidelines

    A. If heat loss exceeds 450 Btu/Hr. per lineal feet of wall, heat should be provided

    from under the window or from the base of the wall to prevent downdrafts.

    B. If heat loss is between 250 and 450 Btu/Hr. per lineal feet of wall, heat should be

    provided from under the window or from the base of the wall, or it may be providedfrom overhead diffusers, located adjacent to the perimeter wall, discharging air

    directly downward, blanketing the exposed wall and window areas.

    C. If heat loss is less than 250 Btu/Hr. per lineal feet of wall, heat should be pro-

    vided from under the window or from the base of the wall, or it may be provided

    from overhead diffusers, located adjacent to or slightly away from the perimeter

    wall, discharging air directed at or both directed at and directed away from the

    exposed wall and window areas.
