NC-2009 SSc7.1:Heat Island Effect—Non-Roof

No test of SRI?

Hi! We are using new light grey concrete and new light grey concrete stones on our site. LEED provides typical SRI values, f.ex. for new grey concrete which is 35 according to the LEED manual. From previous comments in this forum i presume that it enough to show compliance with this credit by proving that new grey concrete and new grey concrete stones are used? Thanks in advance!!

Folks should be aware that a 5/9/2011 Addendum (now Correction) to the Reference Guide changed the SRI value for typical new gray concrete from 35 to 38. See http://www.usgbc.org/leed-interpretations?keys=100000912 for BD+C and O+M (http://www.usgbc.org/leed-interpretations?keys=100000958 for ID+C (SSc1) and http://www.usgbc.org/leed-interpretations?keys=100000801 (dated 2/2/11) for ND Built Project (SSc3)).
