MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION OF VENTILATION SYSTEMS (74 page course
book)
This publication provides
practical information on the operation and
maintenance of ventilating systems with special
emphasis on economy consistent with safety. It
is primarily directed to the personnel in the
field who actually supervise and perform the
operations and the maintenance work. Although
the general subject of ventilating systems is
highly technical, this publication has been
written in nontechnical language, brief and
direct, so that the reader will have the basic
information required for the intelligent
handling of field situations.

COOLING BUILDINGS BY NATURAL VENTILATION (183
page course book)
This handbook provides guidance
and criteria for the design of buildings to be
totally or partially cooled by natural
ventilation. It describes several natural
criteria; design criteria for natural
ventilation and for zoned or seasonal occupant
and maintenance manuals, and guidelines for wind
tunnel testing. Appendices include forms and
overlays for the designer's use and describe the
fundamental principles of comfort related to
airflow, a methodology for climate analysis,
prediction, and evaluation.
