Can someone give me a hand on trying to figure out the equation for the LEED for Homes – Home Size Adjustment Calculations.
I'm using the one in the reference guide and I must be missing something because it's not adding up. Am I correct in my interpretation that log=actual home size divided by neutral home size?
Thank You.

Phil,
The easiest thing to do is download the LEED for Homes Project Checklist at www.usgbc.org/homes, or use this direct link: http://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.aspx?DocumentID=3658. The first tab (Summary) has a cell for number of bedrooms and conditioned square footage, and will automatically calculate the HSA. Make sure to include all conditioned area (including the basement, if there is one).
