Does anyone have a comment on the number of spaces (% of spaces?) that an air speed sample would need to include? I am working with a 3 story office space with ~100,000 sf of cubicles on each floor. Looking at the example in resources was not very clear. Thanks!

The distribution pattern of air speed testing will be dictated by ASHRAE 55-2004, Section 7, Evaluation of the Thermal Environment. In the most basic terms, the periodic air speed measurements must be made in occupied spaces, but the criteria for determining the location of those measurements are defined in the ASHRAE guidance and will be based on the layout and configuration of your building's spaces.
