a perimeter corner space with at least two exposures shall be equipped with a dedicated room
temperature control.
2.1.5 interior spaces
a single terminal unit can serve as many as three interior office or patient examination rooms with identical load characteristics.

All air terminal units (constant volume or variable air volume) serving perimeter or interior spaces shall be equipped with integral reheat coils and heating hot water with modulating control. The maximum and minimum air volume settings shall be factory set, but field adjustable. The minimum setting shall satisfy the following:
o provide make-up air for exhaust
o meet minimum ventilation air needs
o limit the supply air temperature to 95 f (35 c) in heating mode. Increase the supply air airflow as required if more heat is required.

positive air balance, designated as (+) in the room data sheets, occurs when the supply air volume is 15% more than the return and/or exhaust air volumes. 15% supply air is used to pressurize the space.
Negative air balance, designated as (-) in the room data sheets, occurs when the supply air volume is 15% less than the return and/or exhaust air volumes. 15% make-up air is introduced into the space from adjoining areas. Double negative air balance, designated as (- -) in the room data sheets, occurs when the supply air volume is 30% less than the return and/or exhaust air volumes.
2.2 ddc controls
the lessor shall provide a complete building energy management system in accordance with va master construction specifications division 23, specification 23 09 23 direct-digital control system for hvac. All new control devices shall be equipped with electric actuators.
