Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7212528
The Association of Physical Plant Administrators of Universities and Colleges assisted the Energy Research and Development Administration in a feasibility study to determine the impact of agencies and organizations that review and apply codes and standards to new construction and major renovation projects affecting colleges' and universities' ability to use and conserve energy. A questionnaire was prepared, setting forth two theoretical models, Major Building exceeding $2,000,000, and a Major Renovation exceeding $100,000, and used as a basis for information gathering. The program involved a survey of four representative states: (1) California, moderate climate, West Coast; (2) Maryland, moderate climate, East Coast; (3) Michigan, cold climate/heating region, North; and (4) Texas, warm climate/cooling region, South. Within each state, four institutions were analyzed, one from each of the following types: (1) two-year public community or junior college; (2) four-year public college; (3) public university; (4) four-year private college/university. The recommendations and conclusions of the survey are contained in the Executive Summary, Volume I. The Source Data are set forth in Volume II.
