It is correct that sound reinforcement systems are only required fro conference rooms or auditoriums for more then 50 people? Are masking systems optional in order to comply or mandatory?

We are considering this credit for a New Construction Project. Before making a decision we need to estimate the engineering cost involved for this credit.

Design or Construction Credit?

Is this s design or construction credit? From the credit form requirements looks like the NC levels will have to be measured, the rest criteria can be theoretically analysed or modeled.
