NC-v4 SSc5:Heat island reduction

Roof Water Feature

Dear All, My project is a museum building. The building roof is thick with water. So, project building roof have pool and observation terrace. Should it be counted as a reflective? Do I need to figure out the SRI value of water? Thanks to your help.

Reference the LEEDuser FAQ section for NC v2009 SSc7.2 for guidance on pools. Specifically, under v2009 this text states "While pools are not specifically mentioned in LEED Interpretation #10235, GBCI has informed LEEDuser that it would probably count them as an appurtenance and exclude them." I am not sure if this interpretation is allowed under v4. If your project is registered under LEED v4 you might ask your GBCI LEED Coach.

Can we get an SRI for the water ?

I don't think so.
