  24. Have updated terms from last year from ASHRAE Staff. About 1200 terms. Will be adding to working file.
  25. Added 4200 terms from IIR added to working file as a sub group. For use only by refrigeration reviewers. They use keywords so we will start adding keywords to terms.
  26. Added bEQ terms.
  27. Looked at adding position document terms but they have only 3 terms and really are not useable.
  28. Once terms are in working file Chuck Dale-Derks will ask individuals to review and comment on terms they are “experts” one. Should speed up the review process.

  30. Custom reports – No activity or report from Kyle Kisebach. Rex Camit appointed new custom reports chair. Will learn and test process working with Art Hallstrom. Once he is ready, will announce this option to ASHRAE stds and guideline committees. After a test period an article on terms custom reports will be submitted to the Journal.
  31. TC wants ASHRAER to include abbreviations in online version. Art to ask if they will do it.
  32. Metric Conversations.
  33. Need to update ASHRAE excel sheet for SI-IP conversions to include columns for rational (hard Units) with difference percentage. Might offer several options for user selection. For many applications uses a rational conversion will be more useful for ashrae members outside the US. Would not require dual stds like 90.1 (IP) and 90.1 (SI). But would require a change to ASHRAE Metric policy.
