VOC budget process in this credit

NC-2009 IEQc4.3:Low-Emitting Materials—Flooring Systems
posted by  Albert Sagrera  on 

Can I use the same "VOC budget process" to justify this credit as in credit 4.2 if I make a misatke or If I have just one product that is used minimally on a project?. Thanks

Certification required to perform pressure differential test?

posted by  Vanessa Nelson  on 

Is a certification required to perform the pressure differential test? I'm wondering if it needs to be done by a specialty testing company or can it be done by the Mechanical Sub?

Documents - which Language?

LEED Reviews: Appeals, Design/Construction Submittals, and more

This is maybe an obvious question but our projects are located in Austria. Therefore most of our documents are in German.

Greetings all, I have a CI project that has single phase UPS, PoE Switches, and some AiroNet AP. Are all these excluded from the calculation? Thanks!

Hi, I understand all the previous discussion UPSs but our situation is just a tad different, The project in question is intensely tech related, and the UPS needed as backup is a 3 phase, 50,000 kV

Hi, It is of my best understanding that the UPSs are included as "eligible equipment" for both EAp2 and EAc1.4 as stated on the LEED for Commercial Interiors v2009 Reference Guide since they fall
