I'm starting a new project on a bar and grill this is seeking LEED silver. I'm a little confused on how a restaurant would achieve this credit.

The latest version of LEED NC & CS v3.0 Addenda incorporates changes and improvements to LEED 2009 resources. However there are some considerations that were not clear.

Tristan, Is it possible to show a sample calc for credit 7.1. I am not sure how to calculate this and would welcome any insights as to how about providing this calculation.

I've not seen a breakdown by credit, as it can vary widely by the strategy pursued and experience of the team, but there's a related discussion of this question over at http://www.leeduser.com/topi

To clarify: 1.) Can I use a combination of underground parking stalls AND light colored pavement (SRI - 35 typical new gray concrete) AND landscape (tree) shading to achieve this point?

Our project is a major renovation project. Do the ASHRAE mandatory provisions apply to existing systems/components that are not altered?

Would the USGBC accept a dual flush converter as compliant vs installing new toilets?

We have a 3,000 SF building which will be occupied intermittently by the client/owner.

Hi, I've come across some products that are labelled with a VOC values of mg/m2/hr (milligram per meter square per hour), so how do you convert it to l/g?

I have a project I am trying to model. the overall building is just over 25,000sf. The is an office area that is about 11,000sf and enclosed parking area, and an enclosed utility space.
