Hello to all Users,

I have following question:

Hi everyone,

Does redirecting rainwater to bodies of water outside the project site count as low-impact development (LID)/green infrastructure (GI) practices?

Hello everyone,

We have just realised that the percentile value given by the LEED Rainfall Event Calculator (https://www.usgbc.org/resources/leed-v4-rainfall-events-calculator) was incorrect, just before implement

Please can someone explain how to calculate residential FAR?

Path 3 states: "manage on site the runoff from the developed site for the 85th percentile ". I guess this requirement was made to exclude the sidewalk from calculations.

I'm working on a complex mixed-use Campus project, where we'd like to pursue this credit for 1 of the separate buildings.

Hi LEED experts, It is difficult to find rainfall data of 10 years in my country. I'm just lucky to find an international source for that long data.

Per page 194 of the v4 BD+C Reference Guide, the Exemplary Performance section indicates "Manage 100% of rainwater that falls within the project boundary".  This is a fairly vague stateme

Is my understanding correct that the building roof must be green to satisfy this credit ?
