Process verses intent

LEED Reviews: Appeals, Design/Construction Submittals, and more
posted by  Martha Norbeck  on 

The LEED reviewers, once again, have succeeded in exasperating me and my team. We submitted under alternative compliance making a case that our approach supports the intent of the credit and why.

Recert vs. new Cert

LEED Recertification: When and How
posted by  Jessica Hawley  on 

Reading through this forum I still don't think I see a clear consensus on recert vs. new cert. I have a client who was originally certified in 2011 EBOM and they are up for recertification.

posted by  Jose Dehitta  on 

Our project is a cafeteria which is inside the military base. All the soldiers walks from their barracks to eat or pick up food at the cafeteria. Can we use Option #2 to get 6 points?

We are looking to certify nineteen concession spaces in an existing airport. The spaces all share one mechanical system and one water source and do not appear to be sub-metered.

Option B for a reception area in a massive office tower lobby

NC-2009 IEQc8.1:Daylight and Views—Daylight
posted by  Elliot Young  on 

So, back again to ask another one. We are ever so close to reaching 75% threshold and without having the engineers run daylight models or measure the space I'm trying to pick up any space we can.
