Hello,
According to the LEED User Glossary, the total Gross Square Footage must include all basements levels. Does that include the underground parking levels as well? If so, does that mean that i have to include parking areas when undertaking the FTE/Transients calculations on a Core & Shell project ?
Many thanks,

George, from Appendix 1 of the BD&C Reference Guide, page 612: "Projects which contain underground and/or structured parking, may exclude that area from the gross square footage used for the [occupancy count] calculation."I think this answers your question.
