Rational Method

CS-2009 SSc6.1: Stormwater design - quantity control
posted by MKK LEED on Jul 7, 2014, 10:01 am

Good Morning, I’m starting with calculations in SS credit 6.1. But I have a question: Can I use the runoff data of the watershed where is located the project? Because in my understanding I must use Rational Method just for calculate the runoff in a watershed but not in a square site. The lot area is 47.762 m2 and the watershed where is located the project is in Bogotá city. Thank you very much. SSc6.1 ...

Combining Option 2 and Option 3

NC-2009 SSc4.1: Alternative transportation - public transportation access
posted by Meghan Ward on Jul 17, 2014, 6:04 am

For Option 2 the criteria is locating the project close to stop/s for 2 or more public, campus or private bus lines. For Option 3 the criteria is locating the project close to stops/s for 2 or more existing rideshare options. For our project we only have one public bus line and then one rideshare option. Would we then be able to achieve this credit based on the project having two public transportation access?...

Extra PV, how to get credit?

CI-2009 SSc1: Site Selection
posted by Keelan Kaiser on Jul 22, 2014, 11:10 am

We have a unique situation where we have an owner who wants to install a lot of pv on their project. SSc1 is already filled up with the max 5 points. Is there any way the additional PV can count as on-site renewable far exceeding this particular credit? Can we pursue an ID credit for this? Thanks. SSc1 ...

Contract through Design Team- conflicting information

NC-2009 EAp1: Fundamental Commissioning of Building Energy Systems
posted by Rory Cousino on Aug 22, 2014, 9:51 am

Jorge Torres-Coto Building Systems Commissioning Engineer Empirical Engineering, LLC LEEDuser Basic Member 17 thumbs up August 22, 2014- 11:45 am We have been employed through various entities on projects (owner, design firm, even contractor). To avoid any confusion we do a small write up with the entities involved (CxA firm, Owner, and holder of CxA contract) and have all of them sign the document stating that for contractual simplicity X company subcontracted the CxA firm, but that the "direct line of communication" is between the CxA firm and the Owner. This has worked with the GBCI...

Tristan Roberts Representative Vermont House of Representatives LEEDuser Expert 11477 thumbs up November 24, 2015- 3:14 pm Helen, are you basically asking if the playing fields can be excluded from open space calculations? I don't think so, either in terms of an official exception or in terms of the LEED intent, which asks you to have open space that is also vegetated.
