Entering Transporation Management Plan on LEED Online

March 11, 2014

My client is pursuing an exemplary point for a Transportation Management Plan for a V2009 NC application. I indicated this on the Credit 3.1 form and uploaded the plan, but it's not showing on the scorecard as an ID point. Do I have to enter the information again under the Innovation and Design section? I would have thought it would have flowed through automatically.
Thanks.

Revolving doors

Revolving doors

March 6, 2014

I am helping our project team with a public building in Qatar under LEED-NC v2009. Main entry has a revolving door. ASHRAE mandatory requirements section 5.4 states that air leakage in revolving doors shall not exceed 1.0 cfm/ft2 (which is 5.07 l/s/m2). The revolving door manufacturers are stating there aren’t any revolving doors that will meet this criteria. I have a hard time believing this, but have never had a revolving door on a project. We have searched for revolving doors that might comply but none of the manufacturers’ list the air leakage rate of their doors nor do they state their door complies with NFRC 400. Has anyone used a revolving door that meets the requirement that they can recommend, please? Thanks.

Best strategy for an existing campus

LEED Guidance for Campuses and Multiple Buildings

Best strategy for an existing campus

February 28, 2014

An existing campus with no LEED certified buildings, no similar buildings except the dorms. What would be the best strategy: certify a group of buildings first then pursue a campus master site. Understanding that existing buildings will take time to upgrade and likely it will be done in phases as funding is allocated - what is the best way forward?
Thanks
Khaled

Group/Campus Projects

February 28, 2014

Hi Everyone,
We have a project that includes three dorms, a dining hall, and a master site -- we were interested in transitioning this over to the new platform but we weren't sure if a project can be BOTH a group and campus project. Is it possible for the three dorms to pursue group certification while the master site and dining hall pursue campus certification? Also, to take a step backwards, can you do both a master site and group certification?

Thanks!

Can't open LEEDonline forms for each building in campus project?

Can't open LEEDonline forms for each building in campus project?

February 28, 2014

Hi,

We are certifying a campus project with the new leed online: https://www.usgbc.org/leedonline.new

For some credits we are asked to fill in forms for each building, such as IEQp1, etc.

The credit form says: Project building with which this form is being completed:

However, I can only open one form for that credit, does anybody know how to open new forms for more buildings?

Thanks

Submitted 3 buildings as group- but 1 did not get a permit

Submitted 3 buildings as group- but 1 did not get a permit

February 27, 2014

We are in the process of submitted the design phase for 3 residential buildings as a group under the LEED for new construction but one of the buildings seems to have problem's getting a permit. Does it mean that if the 3rd building will not be build the whole group can't be certified? Would you advise us to ask GBCI to exclude this building from certification and to change the LEED boundary accordingly (if it is at all possible)? Thank you very much for a much needed help :)

Group project boundary for two buildings that are separated

Group project boundary for two buildings that are separated

February 20, 2014

Hi all,

I am pursing a multiple building submission for 2 NC buildings. I am currently trying to draw a group project boundary for the 2 buildings which are separated by a project boundary of another ongoing LEED group project. I understand from this guideline that the campus boundary must be continuous, but nothing was mentioned regarding group boundary.

Is it possible to have my group project boundary marked as two separated parcels of land, each containing one of the buildings?

LEED EBOM group certification

LEED EBOM group certification

February 18, 2014

Dear all,
I have a question about LEED EBOM group registration and certification fees. My company is analyzing two office buildings that are very similar and we are trying to understand what could be the advantages (in terms of costs) of joining these two buildings in a single Group Project Certification. We have analyzed the “Registration and Certification Fees” section (http://www.usgbc.org/cert-guide/fees#campus) and we couldn’t quite understand the fees applied. There is a registration fee “$1,200 per building or space within group” in section Group Certification Approach (for Organizational Level or Non-members). Regarding certification fees, how do we calculate the fees applied for these two buildings?
