FAQs about LTc4 :

When it comes to satisfying the requirements for Option 1, what does the "total buildable land" take into account? And the "total building area"?

Where do we measure the radius from? In LEED 2009, we measured it from the main entry, but the LEED v4 language is different.

The main entrance of my project is the parking entrance. Should I measure the walking distance to the diverse uses from this point?

Is eligible for this part of the credit a project that has the main entrance through the parking?

Hi Maria, I recommend using the door where you enter the building (i.e., conditioned space) as the main entrance. Kara

Thank you so much Kara. I was not sure from where to measure the distance because it is a large building and the distance is important. It's a rare case to enter through the parking... Maria

I recommend selecting an entrance that is accessible to pedestrians, open during regular business hours, and can be defended it as the main entrance to the building.
