This document provides information to calculate the cooling load for an office space, including dimensions, transmission gains, internal gains, and outside air loads. It lists factors to calculate sensible and latent heat loads from the building envelope, occupants, lights, and fresh air. Safety factors are included to calculate the total cooling load of 18,078 BTU/hr and required cooling capacity of 1.51 tons of refrigeration or 5.30 kW.
