Acoustic performance as an ID path for LEED CI

Kathy, I’ve never had a non-school project attempt this credit but have presented the idea to a few projects. We had planned on working with an acoustics consultant to determine a standard to use as our baseline (the ANSI standard in LEED for Schools is specific for schools) and then to design the space to be above and beyond traditional design. However, I don’t know whether you will need to be closer to the Schools prerequisite or credit requirements. I think it really depends on the space type and usage, and we be best to work with a consultant to determine what makes most sense for your space. Shannon

Kathy, I got a document from Armstrong showing how they earned a point for acoustics under LEED-EB. I've posted it to the Documentation Toolkit (see the tab above).I'm curious how helpful this document is to others interested in this approach—let me know.
