certification EA1. The building has 20% classroom space, 20% office space

style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>According to the ASHRAE 90.1 user
guide, the minimum ventilation rates designed for the proposed building must
also be modeled in the budget building design. Ventilation is energy neutral as
far as trade-offs are concerned.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

between proposed and budget building is different, the calculated air flow of
budget design is larger than the proposed design. It means the outside air is
also larger than the proposed design. My question here is how to have the
same minimum ventilation rates and keep it “energy neutral”? <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
