CS-2009 SSc5.2: Site Development—Maximize Open Space
Hello,
we have a project with terraces, each includes a deck for pedestrian and green roof, we have approximately 50% of area deck and 50% of green roof system.
We are applaying SSc2, can we considerer the deck of pedestrian in our calculations, option 1?

I'm confused about the difference between SSc5.1 and SSc5.2. Can I earn them both?
Can roof terraces contribute to SSc5.2?
How should I count planters and vegetation on balconies?
What if my local code has a landscaping requirement? Is this the same as an open space requirement?
Can permeable paving count as hardscape or vegetation towards SSc5.2 calculations?
Can interior courtyards contribute to vegetation requirements?

Hi Gabriel,
You should be able to include both the vegetation and hardscape square footage in your calculations if you can comply with SS2.
