JEDDAH — The 23rd Saudi building & interiors exhibition 2014 (SBIE) will kick off at Jeddah Center for Forums and Events from May 11 to 14.

The exhibition, being organized by Al Harithy Company for Exhibitions (ACE) and is held under the patronage of the Saudi Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs will be inaugurated by Dr. Hani Abu Ras,  Mayor of Jeddah.

Saudi Arabia’s 23rd Comprehensive Showcase for the Industry with its excellent track record is fully geared up to bring together local, regional and international companies specialized in building and interior industries to take advantage of major opportunities in the industry, as well as to learn about the developments in the local and global markets. 

Over 200 exhibitors are participating in the exhibition representing Bahrain, China, Egypt, Lebanon, Malaysia, Morocco, Taiwan, Turkey, UAE, UK and leading manufacturers, agents and distributors to showcase an extensive range of the latest building materials, construction equipment, wood machinery, interior furnishings and other products. 

Commenting on this year’s show, Zahoor Siddique, Vice President-Exhibitions of Al Harithy Company for Exhibitions, said: “Celebrating its 23rd anniversary, SBIE  continues to provide a comprehensive showcase for suppliers and service providers, whether new to the market or simply wishing to increase brand awareness.” 

He added: “We create the B2B opportunities and international companies which specialize in the sector can explore the opportunities in Saudi Arabia by finding available partners here.” 

This year, the event will also witness the inclusion of specialist sectors which are School Build and Health Build “These will provide unique opportunities for the sectors to expand businesses interests,” he said.

Powering the economy is Saudi Arabia’s $650 billion 9th Development Plan, which acts as a catalyst for its ongoing ambitious long-term program for building and construction, and expanding the infrastructure across the country.

Almost 50 percent of the Kingdom’s 2013 budget is allocated for capital investment projects, underscoring the government’s determination to improve critical infrastructure and diversify the economy.

Hi Green Tip #4: Hi Size and Select Fans Near Their Peak Total Efficiency.

Even the most efficient fan models can operate inefficiently if improperly sized.Fans selected close to their peak total efficiency (pTE) will use less energy. The 2012 International Green Construction Code requires selections within 10% of peak efficiency, and ASHRAE Standard 90.1,

Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, is considering language that would require a 15% allowable range. If a fan is selected to operate more than 15 point below its peak efficiency, it is probably undersized to result in the lowest purchase price (first cost). The smaller, less-expense fan will have to run much faster with higher levels of internal turbulence than its larger cousin to meet the required air flow, thus consuming a lot more energy.The cost difference to select a larger fan closer to peak operating efficiency is very small when compared to the energy saved.

Simple payback for 10% selections is usually less than one year. Smaller fans operating faster will also require more maintenance and earlier replacement. Smaller fans generate more noise as well.Below is a table showing the output from a fan manufacturer's sizing and selection program. All of the fans in the table would "do the job" of providing the required airflow at the required pressure.

The fan sizes range from 18-inches in diameter to 36-in. Notice that as the fan diameter increases, the fan speed decreases, as does the fan power (expressed as "brake horsepower"). The red region of the table indicates poor fan selection practice - none of these fans have an actual total efficiency (at the airflow and pressure required) within 15 points of peak total efficiency. The green region indicates proper fan selection process - all have an actual total efficiency within 15 points of peak total efficiency.

Note that the 30-in. diameter fan consumes roughly half the power of the 18-in. fan. The lowest cost fan shown is probably the 20-in. fan, with an efficiency of 49%, 29 points off the peak. If this fan runs 6,000 hours per year at a utility rate of 10 cents per kwh, it will cost $4,300 a year to operate. A more efficient selection might be the 24-in. fan because it is "Class I" and complies with both ASHRAE 90.1 and the Green code requirements. It has an actual efficiency of 69%, 10 points less than the peak efficiency of 79%. This fan would cost $3,100 to operate, which is probably more than the fan itself costs. A more efficient 30 inch selection is only 1 point from its peak efficiency of 83% and will consume only $2,600 per year, saving $500 a year relative to a 24-in. fan, and $1,700 a year over the lowest cost fan. Generally, the difference in initial cost of the most efficient fan selection is paid back in less than 5 years over more common less efficient alternatives. Perhaps this observation will bring it home.

Most fans consume more each year in energy cost than they are worth. So, when you buy a fan, think of it as a liability, not an asset. Your objective should be to make the liability placed on those who will pay future energy bills as low as possible. The leverage implicit in choosing a larger, more efficient fan is much greater than most people appreciate. And fans last a long time – 20 years plus – so choose wisely.The bottom line is this. Right-sizing a fan can yield energy savings and generate a lot of operating cost savings for the facility owner or occupants for many, many years.
