Dear all, I'm now working on a project (office building, new construction) under LEED NC v2009 Certification. Can you confirm that the non-permanent forniture (not used as functional distribution, e.g. internal walls) is excluded from the model (e.g. cabinets, desks,..)? I've not found any specific note about that into the reference guide. Thank you so much.

There are no specific mentions of furniture in the credit. It is generally agreed that it is optional. However, you might be surprised at the difference it makes in your calculations and should include it for a more complete analysis. At the very least, you need to know what the typical desk height is in order to set the vertical level of your calculation plane. If it is a child's classroom or a maintenance shop, adjust accordingly.
