FAQs about SSc7.1 :

Projects that provide covered parking are eligible for points under this credit, but what if a project provides no parking?

I do not know the SRI value of my hardscape materials. What can I do?

How do I find a lab for getting SRI values? What will it cost?

I have a mix of various hardscape types with different SRI values. Can I apply a weighted average to see if my project complies?

Should I use the SRI value of new or weathered concrete for my project?

What is hardscape? Is a gravel surface considered hardscape? How about artificial turf? Wood? Tennis courts?

There is a reflecting pool on our site. What is the SRI of water? Should we include that in our calculations?

Should I consider motorbikes and parking spaces for them under this credit? What about fleet vehicles?

Erin, I'm afraid not. Do you have an idea for how you'd do it. I think if you can use solid data to support a particular approach, and show that it woiuld stand the test of time (climate change), it would be great to see.
