FAQs about IEQc8.2 :

For Exemplary Performance, what is a View Factor?

Does furniture need to be included in floor plan when completing views calculations?

If views are accessible from a seated position, yet above 42”, can these contribute to the views calculations?

Why does the LEED Reference Guide call for vision glazing between 30 and 90 inches, but I have to show compliance at 42 inches?

What is considered a regularly occupied space?

What can I do if my prescriptive method calculation results in a value less than 0.150?

What can I do if my prescriptive method calculation results in a value greater than 0.180?

NC-2009 IEQc8.2:Daylight and Views—Views

Views for an Apartment Building

I'm working on documenting this credit for an apartment building but have a question about documenting it. Most of the floors are identical in terms of rooms square footage and layout. Do I have to document each room separately, or is it possible to combine similar rooms into one entry if they are identical on multiple floors? Thanks!

Hi Lauren, It will be easier for the review team if you list each floor, but understandably if you have a lot of the same/typical floor plans then it is acceptable to combine, or rather list "Floors 1 - x (typical)" as a line item in your views calculations with the results. Just make sure your regularly occupied total square footage for IEQc8.2 matches the square footage listed throughout your project documentation and I would simply include a brief narrative for the reviewer confirming which floors have the exact same layout and square footage just to be clear. Hope helpful!
