It is an indispensable reference for engineers and other professionals involved in design of buildings and building systems. It offers, in detail, the minimum energy efficiency requirements for design and construction of new buildings and their systems, new portions of buildings and their systems, and new systems and equipment in existing buildings, as well as criteria for determining compliance with these requirements. This standard provides the minimum requirements for energy-efficient design of most buildings, except low-rise residential buildings. Standard 90.Standard 90.1 has been a benchmark for commercial building energy codes in the United States and a key basis for codes and standards around the world for more than 35 years. Product Code(s): D-86269, 86269 Document History Product Details Published: 2010 ANSI: ANSI Approved Number of Pages: 224 File Size: The 2007 edition is still available for purchase.
