posted by  Joanna Switzer  on 

Hey all, I've heard informally from one lab that they are seeing a number of v4 projects fail their IAQ tests - appears the newly introduced glycol level thresholds are a common obstacle.

Can Building Envelope CxA be the acoustical engineer

NC-v4 EQc9:Acoustic performance
posted by  Edgar Arevalo  on 

I know under LEED that the design engineers cannot also be the Cxa, but does that also apply for an entity/company who is the building envelope CxA but can also be the acoustical engineers?
