How do I know if a product complies with LEED v4 or if it was tested under an older non-compliant standard?

In past versions of LEED, it was easy to specify VOC limits. Is the specification process the same for LEED v4?

Is there a VOC budget method for this credit?

What are the limits on the VOC budget method?

NC-v4 EQc2:Low emitting materials

SCAQMD 443.1 VOC content

Dear all, We have a product tested with the SCADMQ 443.1 rule with a VOC content of 429 g/l. We consider the product in the category adhesive and sealant, where is required the SCADMQ 1168 rule. Do you know if the 443.1 rule is also compliant with LEED test method?

Hi, Technically spoken, SCAQMD rule 443.1 VOC content determination is equivalent with SCAQMD rule 1168.
