I'm modeling a LEED project. According to ASHRAE 90.1, the schedules for
HVAC, occupancy, lighting, etcetera, "...shall be typical of the proposed
building type as determined by the designer and approved by the rating
authority." (part 4 of table G3.1)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

Of course, I haven't a clue what the rating authority (USGBC) considers
appropriate. I lack the expertise to determine this, myself. Is
there some free (online?) resource that delineates typical schedules for
building types? All I know is that the owner claims that the offices are
open from 8am to 5pm. (how informative!)</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
