FAQs about SSc3.2 :

Does LEED have any requirements on spacing or the type of bike racks used? What about security?

Are there specific requirements for the changing rooms, such as size?

Based on my FTE calculations, I am only required to provide 1 shower to meet this requirement. Since both males and females will have access to this one shower, and it will be in a single room, does this satisfy the credit requirements? Can I use an exist

Do bike racks have to be within the LEED project boundary?

My project type serves visitors who can reasonably be expected to not be using bikes, e.g. hotel, airport, assisted living facility. Can I exclude them from bike rack requirements?

Is a general storage room that is accessible to residents acceptable for covered bike storage?

Do I round up or down? What if the calculations show that I need 0.5 showers?

Our building is mostly residential. Must we provide showers and changing rooms for the nonresidential portion?

I have a dental office project located in a residential condo tower. There is a health/fitness club in this tower that has showers located in them. All residents of the tower, including the FTEs of the dental office, have access to the showers in the health/fitness club. Do we still have to meet the .05% showers per occupant for the entire building's occupants even if though they all have showers in their own condos? Thanks,

Matthew,Since the dental office employees do not live in the tower you will have to supply proof that they have access to the health club showers. And, yes, you will need to document that there are 0.05% showers for your FTEs.

Does access mean that they can get membership or that they are able use the showers even if they aren't members?
