Professional Practice & Development

Herbert W. Stanford III, PE, is a North Carolina native and 1966 graduate of North Carolina State University with a BS in mechanical engineering. He is a registered professional engineer in North Carolina. In 1977, he founded Stanford White, Inc., an engineering consulting firm in Raleigh, North Carolina, and semiretired in 1998. Currently, Mr. Stanford is actively engaged in investigative and forensic engineering, teaching, and writing within a broad range of topics relative to buildings, especially heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems; indoor environmental quality; and building operations and maintenance. Mr. Stanford developed the Facilities Condition Assessment Program for the state of North Carolina and the Life Cycle Cost Methodology used by North Carolina to evaluate building design decisions. He has taught a series of short courses on current building topics at the University of Toledo (Ohio), North Carolina State University, and the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, and he is a life member of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Mr. Stanford is the author of HVAC Water Chillers and Cooling Towers: Fundamentals, Application, and Operation (Second Edition, CRC Press, 2011); The Health Care HVAC Technician (MGI Systems, Inc., 2008), a program and training manual for hospital HVAC maintenance personnel; and Effective Building Maintenance (Fairmont Press, 2010).

Adam F. Spach was born in upstate New York and graduated from Alfred University with a BS in mechanical engineering in 2000. After graduation, he relocated to North Carolina and has called it his home since. Mr. Spach has worked as an HVAC consulting engineer since 2001 and is licensed as a professional engineer in North Carolina and several other states. He joined Stanford White, Inc., Raleigh, North Carolina, in 2005 and is now an associate with that firm. He currently focus
