Hello,
In my understanding the credits:
Building Life Cycle Impact Reduction
Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - EPD
Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - Sourcing of Row materials
Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - Material Ingredients
concern the materials inside the building and not outside.
Is this right?
Thank you

No, that is not the case. They generally cover all permanently installed building products.

Tristan thank you for your answer.
Let me write all of my consideration.
I meant:
For the credit:
- Building Life Cycle Impact Reduction - if you choose Option 4 -Whole Life cycle Assessment, you need to input data only for the building and not for the outside surrounding area, isn't it?
- Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - EPD - Option 1: You can choose 20 different permanently installed materials that are inside the building, isn't?
This consideration came from because I was thinking how a larger Leed Boundary would affect these credits.
I think that with the assumptions I mentioned above, a larger Leed Boundary wouldn't affect these credits at all.
What do you think?
