FAQs about SSc7.2 :

We don't have enough SRI-compliant roofing to earn the credit, but we have a lot of relatively high-SRI roofing (SRI 70). Is there any way to earn the credit?

We don't know the SRI value of some roofing materials we are using. What should we do?

What do I do about roof area covered by solar panels, skylights, space for occupants, helipads, etc.?

Speaking of appurtenances, there is a rooftop pool. Should that be included? Do I need to figure out the SRI value of water?

Do balconies and terraces need to be counted towards the roof square footage?

How does one calculate the square footage of a pitched roof?

What type of ongoing maintenance of the roof is required?

NC-2009 SSc7.2:Heat Island Effect—Roof

Parking Roof

Are we supposed to include parking roofs on SSc7.2 heat island - roof's calculations? I assume that all roofs should be included. But parking roofs are part of SSc7.1, heat island - non roof's calculations. Any ideas?

Noriko, Per LEED Interpretation #2293 and a CIR Ruling dated 9/24/2001 the top deck of an above-grade parking structure is to be considered non-roof impervious area. If the podium deck covered conditioned space, then the deck could be considered as a roof (for portions not being used for parking). Karin
