Abstract
Initial development of ASHRAEI/ESNA Standard 90./-1999 began in early 1990 following the publication of ASHRAEI/ESNA Standard 90./-/989. A group consisting of the existing project committee members and other interested persons sat down to begin mapping out a strategy for the development of the successor to the 1989 standard. Drawing upon the lessons learned from the recently completed 1989 standard, this group identified the need for a consistent approach to be used in evaluating criteria for the next version of the standard. Two key decisions were reached by this group: (]) economics should be used as the basis for informing the professional judgment of the project committee in setting the criteria, and (2) all sections of the new standard should apply the economic approach as consistently as possible to ensure that the standard was balanced among the respective sections (e.g., envelope, lighting, mechanical).
