ASHRAE/USGBC/IES Standard 189.1-2009

Standard for the Design of High Performance Green Buildings
Learning Objectives
Recognize the importance of developing a code-intended

standard for design of high-performance green buildings
Dierentiate Standard 189.1 from green building rating systems
(e.g. USGBC LEED)
Identify mandatory provisions in Standard 189.1 to increase
awareness of the intent of the standard
Identify the two compliance path options (prescriptive and
performance) and their associated provisions in Standard 189.1
STANDARD FOR THE DESIGN OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE GREEN BUILDINGS
What is Standard 189.1?
ANSI standard developed in model code language

Provides minimum requirements for high-performance, green
buildings
Applies to all buildings except low-rise residential buildings
(similar to ASHRAE/IESNA Std 90.1)
It is not a design guide and not a green building rating system
It is included as an optional Compliance Path included in the
International Green Construction Code (IgCC)
Standard Project Committee 189.1

Conditioning Engineers

Why Now?
Voluntary green building rating programs have raised the

awareness of the benets of green building practices
Voluntary green building programs were intended to be
voluntary and not mandatory
Over 1,400 jurisdictions in the U.S. have indicated they want to
green their building codes
Need to reduce the environmental impact of the built
environment
Goals for Standard 189.1
Establish mandatory criteria in all topic areas

One challenge is existing green building rating systems contain few
mandatory provisions
Provide simple compliance options

Provide exible compliance options to encourage innovation
Complement green building rating programs
