FAQs about IEQc4.1 :

How is VOC % less water determined for aerosol adhesives?

Do grout and caulking need to be included, and if so, what is the application category?

Our project didn't use some common adhesive types, and our LEED reviewer asked about this. Are we supposed to justify not using certain adhesives in our documentation?

Is there a shortcut to the VOC budget method if you have just one product that is used minimally on a project?

Do products applied to the weather barrier need to comply with VOC thresholds?

How do I determine what application my product falls under?

CS-2009 IEQc4.1:Low-Emitting Materials—Adhesives and Sealants

Sealant for granite/marble

In a project we are working on they will speficy granite floors and a sealant will be needed to be applied to it. Would architectural sealant be the best fit for this? What falls into the category of an "architectural" sealant? Thank you.

Michael, seems like "Substrate specific - porous" to me. Checking the #1168 definitions (see Resources), it seems like Architectural sealants is definitely not the right fit.

Hello, Was the final decision "Sealant Primers - Architectural - Porous - Current VOC Limit 775 g/l" ?
