HVAC 360

The week we finish our conversation with guest Robert Bean by talking about Radiant Mean Temperature. This is something that every designer should know about, more so if you are always dealing with Architects who love all glass buildings.  So notes and more can be found at www.hvac360.com/95 .

The week I talk with Robert Bean the mastermind behind www.healthyheating.com and a true Building Science Guru. Because of the wealth of knowledge that Robert has I broke this down into a two-parter.  The first part covers the idea about Building Science and what it means to design for comfort.  The fact that we, as Engineers, need to provide more guidance to Architects is highlighted in our discussion and the consequences when we don't.  Show notes are at www.HVAC360.com/94.

In this week's episode I talk about the importance of advocating for professional issues in your area. Giving tips on what to expect and what I feel are best practices when speaking at a meeting.
