BCxA 2024 Preconference Workshop Materials

Picture
This is where I will be posting the materials and follow up information for the preconference workshop.  I will start posting things on Monday as I finalize them but will likely be posting and finalizing things through the day on Tuesday and maybe even early Wednesday morning if I realize I am missing something at the last minute.  So, even if you visit this page and download the items that are there on Tuesday evening, please take a moment Wednesday morning when you are having your coffee or waiting for class to begin to make sure you have everything.
There is no particular order to the order in which things are posted.

3DVista Tours
Since I will be doing this in an instructor led format (meaning I will be doing everything in a way that you will not need to actually access the models/tours, just watch me maneuver through them and interact via questions and answers), you will not necessarily need these links during class.   But sometimes, folks like to look on their own screen in addition to watching the class screen. 

And, if you wanted to go back and review something after the class, these tours will always be available in some form at the link provided, all though I am always updating them to support new ideas for classes and exercises.

HVAC Relationships and Equations
This link will take you to a page on the commissioning resources website that has resources regarding various HVAC relationships, equations, definitions, etc.  We will be working with some of these relationships and concepts in class.
