FAQs about SSc5 :

My project has a balcony that projects away from the building, and does not provide a roof to an enclosed space for the building. How should the balcony be treated for this credit?

Should we include motorcycle parking spaces in our total parking count for the Parking Under Cover option?

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

What if I need to have a material tested?

Can I exclude functional usable areas like recreation courts or rooftop patios?

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

If the top floor of a parking garage includes parking spaces, is it considered a roof or non-roof surface?

In LEED v4, are there standard allowed SRI values for things like concrete, as in LEED 2009?

How should we account for off-site parking under this credit?

Will a testing report be rejected if the lab follows CRRC-1 but is not an ISO/IEC Standard 17025 lab?

Hi Ashley, Sorry for the delayed response. If you haven't already gotten feedback, I would email GBCI directly and propose the question. I asked a similar question for the Low Emitting credit and items being tested independently and received good feedback.
