some other modeling standard by your Ministry… ASHRAE 90.1 in any case tells us
proposed and baseline buildings must have the same minimum ventilation rates

<p class=MsoNormal>Hello Equesters,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In a case where we have an Auto Repair garage where the
minimum ventilation rates set by local code (i.e. Ministry of Labour) is
greater than what the reference building would use, is it adequate to modify
the reference building ventilation rate to match that of the proposed. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In my case the ventilation rate in this Auto Repair garage
is 2cfm/ft2 and for the reference it would be 0.7cfm/ft2.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I appreciate any help.<o:p></o:p></p>
