Do strippers need to comply with VOC requirements?

Schools-2009 IEQc4.2:Low-Emitting Materials—Paints and Coatings
posted by  Louise Schlatter  on 

We are working on a large school renovation. They need to clean some floors with strippers... do those need to comply with VOC requirements? If so, would it fall under paints and coatings?

posted by  Emily Catacchio  on 

I'm working on a project that would like to apply this credit to a new construction building. The new building is part of a college campus, but the LEED boundary only includes the new building.

One thing to consider by requiring project teams to include windows in the calculation is areas where the exisitng windows cannot physically be retrofitted to meet the new performance criteria.

In an existing winery facility we are capturing 100% of our process wastewater (which is significant) and treating it onsite in aerated retention ponds, then using it for vineyard irrigation.

zone floor area

NC-2009 IEQc8.1:Daylight and Views—Daylight
posted by  Traci Stotts  on 

Is the 'zone floor area' in the prescriptive calcs bascially just the area on the floor plan that is determined by the width of the window x twice the height?
