I found in ASHRAE 62.1-2004 standard that using a vestibule to provide airlock between garage and regulary occupied spaces is a compilant way to limit the entry of exhaust gases.
Is it possible to achieve this credit that way?
For example: There's no direct connection between the garage and the office space in our recent project (i.e. it's on a different level underground connected with staircase and lifts).

Nandor, I don't think this would be LEED-compliant. There is likely to be some air movement from the garage to the building unless there is negative pressure.
