If the manufacturer cannot provide the SR or SRI values, can standard values be used based on the color of the material?

Teams must provide manufacturer documentation or independent testing demonstrating SRI value for roofing material and SR value for nonroof material.

Typical SR values for gray cement concrete, white cement concrete and asphalt concrete can be used for standard nonroof materials per LEED Interpretation #10411.

The Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) has a searchable product database, but some materials may need to be independently tested.
