The Hawaii Building Engineers Association (HBEA) is growing! Attendance at our educational seminars has been exceptional. The speakers at the July 23rd meeting were Jim Trapp of InControl. Jim talked about the fire ordinances and how Fire Codes affect buildings. Kehau Mendes talked about 2008 Duct Cleaning Standards from the National Air Duct Cleaning Association; his topic was “What Are You Breathing?” The third speaker was Rob Bellizzi who talked about “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” of variable speed drives. A lot was learned about each of the above subjects and we are looking forward to the next educational seminar.
HBEA is offering take home courses for Professional Certification to engineers with a one-hour lunch time class in Basic Electricity for Non–Electricians. You are invited to sign up for this class. We will also offer classes in Basic Electricity, Motor Fundamentals, a 3-day class (3 hours), and Understanding Building Systems- a 5-day lunch time course for Property Managers. On line courses are also available for HVACR (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration). For details, call 808/531-0444 and ask for Barbara.
