Interior Adhesives and Sealants - special adhesives

None that I am aware of. 

Don't believe I have ever achieved the Adhesives and Coatings option, our 'go to' product categories (with great success) are Insulation, Ceilings, Paints & Coatings, and Flooring.

The most typical option from my experience is "90%+ compliance in three product categories" = 3 points awarded within this credit. 

We have the same experience as Dave's. Have given up on the Adhesives and Coatings category. FSC wood is also viable as long as you keep on top of the tracking from the very beginning.

I know Dave H. mentioned 90% complliance for 3 products equals 3 points but, for NC v4 I see 5 categories for 3 points.

If you are doing well with the other categories you are documenenting and this adhesive is the only one that is challenging, I would switch to v4.1 requirements and omit the adhesve sealant category. If you are looking for 3 points, v4.1 requires 4 categories.  

v4 combines Ceilings, walls, thermal, and acoustic insulation into one category.

v4.1 separates them out into 3 categories:  Wall Panels, Ceilings, Insulation.  So there is less work documenting or more categories to accumulate points depending on how you look at it. :)

Dave is correct.  Need to read the small print in older opies of v4.1.  3 product categories at the 90% or greater theshold = 3 points.  This is currently in the credit library lanuage in Table 1, whereas previously it was in the fine print under the table of thresholds and points.   https://www.usgbc.org/credits/new-construction-core-and-shell-schools-ne...

Good to know! I was looking at the printed copy, not the online version.

Azra which "new criteria" are you specifically refering to?  Most people find v4.1 of this credit easier to achieve because the percentage of compliance is lower than v4.

Can you still use this LEED Interpretation which uses the previous versions of test criteria?

Ruling

Yes, LEED v4 projects using the Low-emitting materials credit from LEED v4.1 via credit substitution may alternatively use the following low-emitting criteria in lieu of the LEED v4.1 requirement:

• For VOC emissions evaluation Option 1: test in accordance with CDPH v1.1-2010 and comply with the VOC limits in Table 4-1 of CDPH v1.1-2010 • For VOC emissions evaluation Option 2: test in accordance with German AgBB Testing and Evaluation Scheme (2010) and comply with the LCI values in German AgBB Testing and Evaluation Scheme (2010)

• For VOC content evaluation: SCAQMD Rule 1113, effective June 3, 2011; SCAQMD Rule 1168, July 1 2005

• For furniture emissions evaluation: Product has been tested in accordance with ANSI/BIFMA Standard Method M7.1–2011 and complies with ANSI/BIFMA e3-2011 or ANSI/BIFMA e3-2012, Sections 7.6.1 (for half credit, by cost) OR 7.6.2 (for full credit, by cost).

Yes, that should work.
