Dear all,
Our project includes 10,000m2 of parking footprint (this area not cover by perimeter, just is under roof). So, should we consider it within building footprint? Since I see LEED's definition: building footprint is area used by building structure and defined by the perimeter of building plan.
Hope to receive the answer soon
Thanks so much.

Is the parking structure attached to the main building? How much of a structure is it?

It's seperated located with main building. Parking here is contructed with a steel frame and some supporting post, and cover with roof, not included with any partition or wall

And another question is:
Our project is 44,000 m2 total area, included: 11,000 area is existing previous developed, and the other rest is green site - we made new parking area (like above issue).
Since I see in LEED, that "if project contain both greenfield and previous developed, we will apply both requirements".
So it's mean, for our project we need to comply both of all??

And within this option - both application, how we can submit in LEED online, since LEED online allow to select one of two, can not select both???

The parking structure should be included in your building footprint.See the second item under the Geting It Done tab above for information on how to apply both cases.In LEED Online, this would be entered as an alternative compliance path.
