The Commissioning Stakeholders’ Guide consolidates best practices, sample documentation, and more than 50 project checklists in a practical and applicable resource for this critical aspect of a new construction project.Using ASHRAE Guideline 0 and ASHRAE/IES Standard 202, this guide provides concise guidance and step-by-step requirements for new construction commissioning for owners, designers, and project managers. Systems, including those found in commercial, medical, industrial, and education facilities, are described in detail. Every facet of the commissioning process is outlined, from project initiation to the final commissioning report.Commissioning Stakeholders’ Guide was co-published by ASHRAE, the leading organization in the sustainable built environment, and BCxA, the authority on building commissioning.
