Our client chose Option 2 on the PIf1 and the form has been approved. They have decided to pursue the 1 point available in EAc5 for choosing Option 1 in PIf1.

Tools for demonstrating solar orientation

posted by  Erica Downs  on 

Is anyone aware of any tools for demonstrating the east-west axis of the house is within 15 degrees of due east-west? Or do I need to bust out my protractor?

calculating peak visitors for a multi-unit residential building

ND-v4 SLLc4:Bicycle facilities
posted by  josee boutin  on 

LEED 2009, would consider 10% of dwelling units or 4 (refer to SLLc4 equation 2) bicycle storage for visitors. LEED v4 requires short-term bicycle storage for at least 2.5% peak visitors.
