1 Manitoba Energy Code for Buildings 101 (MECB 101) The National Research Council of Canada (NRC) has issued the National Energy Code for Buildings (NECB) in The main objective of NECB 2011 was to improve energy consumption in large residential, industrial, commercial and institutional buildings by at least 25% compared with the prior code of The NECB 2011 Code addresses building envelope heat losses as well as efficiencies of: lighting, HVAC, service water heating and electrical systems. The Province of Manitoba has adapted the NECB 2011 in the fall of 2013 and the enforcement of the Code will start on December The Manitoba Energy Code for Buildings (MECB 2013) will require that the design demonstrates compliance to the code in order to obtain building permits. This newly developed course will provide participants with required knowledge and tools needed to meet the requirements of MECB 2013 using all three path options: prescriptive, trade-off and performance. Part One of the course will focus on the detailed prescriptive and trade-off compliance paths as well as the basics for the performance path. Part Two will focus on the performance path and train participants on the use of the newly released CAN-QUEST modelling software that generates the referenced building and compares it to the proposed one. Both parts will include the introduction and applications of the compliance tool required by the Authority Having Jurisdictions (AHJ). Who should attend? Attendees should have some working knowledge of applying codes and standards to buildings. They should also be familiar with the terminologies and basic concepts of building science, HVAC and electrical systems commonly used in buildings. While prior energy modelling experience is not required it will be helpful to have such knowledge and familiarities. Although training options listed later offer four choices for anyone involved in the building industry, the two main parts of the training may be described as follows: Part One of the course is developed for anyone who will be required to work with the MECB 2013: this includes design professionals/engineers/architects, compliance reviewers, builders, contractors, developers and new energy modelers. Part Two of the course is specifically geared towards energy modelers, those individuals who may supervise or hire modelers as well as those who would be responsible for reviewing the energy model to show code compliance when the prescriptive and trade-off paths are not viable options. Benefits to participants Application of new MECB 2013 Learn the three compliance paths of the MECB 2013 with the help of illustrative examples & exercises Gain hands on experience using CAN-QUEST & how to use it as a design tool to influence decisions 1
2 Participants will be required to bring the following A copy of the National Energy Code for Buildings 2011 (NRC virtual store A laptop (Use of a mouse rather than laptop cursor pad is highly recommended) Available Training Options Option 1: MECB 101 Part One: The Code and Documentation ($895/person) Part One will look at the requirements for the Prescriptive and Trade-off paths of the MECB For the first two days; participants will work through exercises to apply their new understanding of the code requirements to real case study examples. The third day will include an introduction to the Performance Path and the Compliance Tool. This tool will assist in the documentation process for the permit application in Manitoba. Option 2: MECB 101 Part Two: Performance Path with CAN-QUEST Modelling ($895/person) Part Two will focus on the Performance Path of the MECB 2013 and the energy modelling software that is required. The 3-day session will begin with an overview of the MECB s other paths, Prescriptive and Trade- Off and then continue with the Performance Path requirements. The first day of this 3-day session will also include an introduction to the Performance Path and the Compliance Tool. This tool will assist in the documentation process for the permit application in Manitoba. The following two days will focus on training of the CAN-QUEST software. Option 3: Full Course Session MECB 101 Part One &Two: 5-Day Course ($1375/person) Participants of the Full Course may attend the five days consecutively. Option 4: Single Day Overview ($150/person) Participants may attend the Day 3 session only where an overview of all three paths of the MECB 2013 and the introduction of the Compliance Tool will be covered. This tool will assist in the documentation process for the permit application in Manitoba. 2

7 consistent with the proposed building design and specifications. Both simulations account for the effect on energy consumption of the building envelope, lighting, HVAC and service water heating systems. Where construction techniques or building components are used that are more energy efficient than those required in the prescriptive requirements, the extra performance over the prescriptive requirements can be credited, provided it can be quantified and is not dependent on occupant interaction. Conversely, if techniques are used that are less efficient, a penalty on performance would be modeled. A design is compliant if the proposed building uses equal or less energy than the reference building. Part 8 contains the rules for calculating the energy use of the two buildings. Introduction to CAN-QUEST The compliance tool: Overview, managing the process and reviewing energy model reports This part covers an introduction and examples of the use of the compliance tool for MECB 2013 CAN-QUEST Hands-On Modelling Day 4 & 5 Prepare an energy model in CAN-QUEST Use the wizards to set up preliminary models Understand the limitations to the wizards Learn how to zone a building Run a compliance model that generates the referenced building Troubleshoot errors Go into the detail interface Learn about tips and tricks to help set up models faster Set up and run parametric runs to evaluate the benefits of energy conservation measures Run hourly reports and learn to read the reports generated by the software Exercises will be provided throughout the training sessions during and/or after significant topics. 7
