Hi! We have a building which occupies 100% of the project site as it is located in a densely developed area which allows it. This building has no parking, thus we can achieve SS c4.4 but what about SS c7.1? Can we achieve it if we have no hardscape at ground level?. Thanks so much for your help.

I think that a Zero lot line building can’t achive the credit 7.1. The purpose of this credit is to reduce the heat island effect on the non-roof surfaces. If the project does not present hardscapes it will not be possible to implement any strategy that meets the requirements listed in the credit.

We have the same issue, thus, we were wondering......what if a Zero lot line building achieves SSc7.2? Could it automatically get SSc7.1?.
