Hello everyone,

I am trying to prepare for Ashrae exam high performance building and i would like to know if anybody got this test to give me an idea how is this test and what is the best source to study for this test.
I am working as designer for HVAC system and i wonder is this enough to pass this test or i need some preparation for this test? if yes what kind of preparation required

Thanks

Go to the ASHRAE Website, review the HPBD Certification Guidebook. It lists available resources to help write the examination. Refer to 90.1, 62, 55 etc and IESNA and the rainwater harvesting manual. If you have been designing various systems for some time and are familiar with the general content of the resource materials you should be okay.

There are also sample questions available for review.

Hello Walkes,

I would like to thank you for your reply and I red all the list and the sample questions as you asked me.
Is there any source (book,...) you recommend for control?
For standards you mentioned above do i have to memories everything for the test?

Thank You

If you have used the documents and standards and are generally familiar with them you should be okay depending on your level of experience. I haven't memorized them but I generally know about the contents.
Normal study practice should work, review the documents, if it makes sense then you're okay if not, make notes...
For controls you can get the Honeywell Engineering manual online somewhere, it has a lot of information in it.
