"'Jw; In Chapter.5I, Codes'and Standards,''the list, of various codes'affecting installation of air conditioning and heating'equipment has been .brought'up-to-date through inform ation obtained from the various state departments concerned. The chapter also contains .a hst of more than 75 codes and. standards, relating to performance, rating, testing, selecting and installing equipment used in heating, ventilating, and air conditioning work, adopted by various societies and organizations. All chapters not specifically mentioned in the foregoing have been carefully reviewed so that they conform to current engineering practice. A complete cross'-index of the technical section provides ready reference to any desired information in the text. As in the past the Guide Publication Committee has had the cooperation and enthu siastic support of a great many Society members and interested organizations, as well as other authorities on the subjects treated in The Guide. To those who have contributed to the success of the previous editions great credit is due for the present high standing of The Guide throughout the world. In the preparation of the 1946 edition the following . members and others have served faithfully and capably and therefore the Guide Publi cation Committee takes great pleasure in expressing its sincere appreciation of their services: P, R. Achenbach J. C. Albright C. M. Ashley A. R. Behnke C. B. Bradley A. D. Brandt R. C. Cross A. G. Dixon C. W. Drake F. C. Fennell John A. Goff F. G. Hechler R. H. Heilman C. M. Humphreys L. N.

Yaglou An enlarged Catalog Data Section contains condensed information from 233 manu facturers of modern equipment and constitutes a valuable reference section for the engi neer, architect, contractor, or student interested in all types of heating, ventilating, and air conditioning installations. A cross index is included 'so that information on any product can be located quickly by the user. This 24th edition of The Guide, like its predecessors,- provides the latest available data compiled from authoritative sources for the use of the practicing engineer and reflects the progress of engineering in the Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning Field.
