Hi LEED users,

Hi everyone, I was wondering what the difference is between the "Total Materials Cost" and "Total Value of Sustainable Materials Costs (unweighted)" in the BPDO calculator?

Hi,

Do the materials used in the building services count a permanently installed materials when calculating the costs?

I have a question about the “bonus” for hyper-local sourcing.  The credit requirement now reads (with the highlight emphasis by me):

Does wood which is certified under the Sustainable Forestry Initiative program qualify as contributing toward the BPDO "Sourcing of Raw Materials" point?, or - does only FSC wood count toward this?

Dear all,

I'm unsure if a plant-based oil in a terrazzo counts as bio-based and which documentation would be needed. Can someone share thier experience with the bio-based requirements?

Is it allowed for an individual product to meet multiple Leadership Extraction Practices simulatenously but separately for each component of a product? 

Has Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) been approved as USGBC Equivalent to FSC wood

Can someone explain to me what are Division 1 general requirements of the project specifications?

Here are some extracts I can read:
