	Greetings,
	 
	I am working on an energy study for a building considering
installing operable windows in the offices which would be tied into the
VAV boxes.  The sequence calls for the office VAV box to fully close
when the office window is opened.  We think this a good sequence, but
the problem is quantifying the potential savings.  
	 
	Does anyone know of any studies that deal with office occupant's
tendencies toward opening windows? (How often during various outside air
conditions windows are left open?)  Any links to published studies or
techniques that people have used in the past would be appreciated.
	 
	Thanks,
	Mickey Bush
