The workbook available on the USGBC website does not appear to be properly updating when changing the climate zones. Here are some examples for k-12 schools:

  • Climate zone 6 in the workbook lists R-13.3 (R-2.3) c.i. for the Walls - Mass. This is from climate zone 5 in the pdf.
  • Climate zone 7 in the worokook lists R-30.0 (R-5.53) ci for the Roof - Insulation entirely above deck. This is from climate zone 6 in the pdf.
