NC-2009 IEQp1:Minimum IAQ Performance

Naturally Ventilated

Hi! I'm working on a one-story dormitory project. The different spaces are naturally ventilated and are in compliance with ASHRAE 62.1 "All must be naturally ventilated spaces within 25 feet of ( and permanently open to) operable wall or roof openings to the outdoors ; Also the operable area must be at Least 4% of the space 's net floor area occupiable " . How can I document the credit? On the credit format on LEED Online states: Provide documentation demonstrating the minimum outdoor air opening and space configurations meet or Exceed the the minimum values from the natural ventilation requirements outlined in ASHRAE 62.1-2007 , Section 5.1.1 . If I only send a floor plan of the different spaces ,sections and dimensions of the operable windows, and also a narrative, would it be ok?

You will also be required a spreadsheet showing: operable window area, space floor area and access within 25ft for each space.

I have uploaded floor plans showing a scaled 25' line, with each operable opening tagged for area as well as a tag on each space showing floor area and required openings.
