Hello everyone, I'm working on a project that plans to integrate a greenhouse. I wonder how to consider the roof of the greenhouse for the SRI coefficient? What coefficient should I consider in my calculations for this surface? Thanks in advance for your help on this.

Marion, checking back in...did you get any additional feedback on your project?
If not, and you're still documenting, you should email LEED Coach for guidance on what to do here. I'd be interested to see what they say either way.

It's actually an skylight, so SRI do not applied. Only to the part of a bridges/jumpers between glasses - and even to it it's not applied.
I've had a project with huge "greenhouse" - glass covered gallery w*l*h of 25*300*30 meters adjacent to a regular building with regular roof - only roof of the regular building counted towards SRI calculations (review passed ok).
