Does anyone know what the STC requirement is for a partition that separates a computer lab and an elevator shaft?

Does anyone know if a workshop area is considered a "core learning space" or an "ancilliary learning space"?

We are working on a project which includes 2, 1350sf, culinary classrooms with many industrial cooking equipment in them.

There are discrepancies between the spaces listed as "Classroom and Core Learning" in the IEQ Overview section and in the EQp3 and C9 "Core Learning Spaces" and "Ancillary Learning Spaces" definiti

The ANSI S12.60-2002 standard requires that core learning spaces, between 10,000 and 20,000 cubic feet, have reverberation times that do not exceed .7 seconds.

My mechanical engineer has a program called "McQuay Acoustic Analyzer Program" but we do not know if the calculations it performs will be acceptable to the LEED reviewers.

Does anyone have a good example of an L-16 Narrative accepted by USGBC? This is our first LEED project, both architecturally and mechanically.

For a recently-constructed school, are sound level measurements permissible in lieu of calculations? I recall that this was a path in LEED for Schools 2007.
