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?

Project location :

I am working on a dormitory Project and it has different buildings (one for the kitchen, one for administration, girls dormitory….).The roof of this buildings are connected with each other, so almost all the hardscapes have shade provided by the roof. If I obtain credit 7.2 by having an SRI of at least 29, would I obtain the credit 7.1?
