posted by  yanghee pierce  on 

Hello, How does a project determine the minimum space (sf) required by LEED HC for recycling storage areas? How does a project determine the projected waste volume? Thanks!

Engineering vs Commissioning

CI-2009 EAp1:Fundamental Commissioning of Building Energy Systems
posted by  Matthew VanSweden  on 

For projects under 50,000 sf, can the HVAC engineer and commissioning agent be the same person? Obviously not best practice but strictly speaking, is this allowable?

Has anyone ever documented this prereq. with a system using R407F? It's not part of the drop down list on the form and we're not sure it will comply. Thanks in advance for your help!
