Jean is right - ASHRAE standards ( 55, 62.1 and 90.1 ) remain the foundation. You may wish to buy the latest verions ( ie 90.1-2010 ) that are not referenced by LEED 2009, but you will still need the relevant version if you are working with LEED 2009 ? ASHRAE 90.1-2007 in PDF format was free from the ASHRAE website for the last few months - they gave away 25 000 copies. It is now 19$. Lastly, if you are new to ASHRAE specs, you may want to look at their online training material.

Does 189.1 has anything to do regarding the "Baseline Building" to which our project has to be compared?
