FAQs about SSc7.2 :

We’re working on an international project and having a hard time finding a coating with a published value for Solar Reflectance Index. If the coating is white, can we assume that it qualifies?

Are solar panels always excluded from the roof area for the purposes of the credit calculations?

Why does the form calculate my high-albedo roof area, as a value greater than 100% of total roof area?

What needs to be included in the roof maintenance program?

EBOM-2009 SSc7.2:Heat Island Reduction—Roof

Floated tile paving and Heat Island Effect

I have a building that has in the most part of their roof, a floating tile paving, that creates an air-chamber between the slab of the roof and the tilies of the paving. Is it considered a cool roof strategy valid for LEED in this Credit?

Mauricio, this strategy is not a "preapproved" strategy for this credit, which is not to say that it wouldn't work. I would encourage you to submit documentation showing how effective it will be, but I would not count on earning the credit in this way.
