FAQs about IEQc6.2 :

I’m working on a project that has transient occupants. How does the IEQ space matrix address transients, and are transients required to have access to the controls?

Do I have to include all individual and multi-occupant spaces and do they have to be consistent across IEQc6.1 and IEQc6.2?

The categories given in the IEQ space matrix don’t really fit how some of the rooms in my project will be used. What should I do?

In some areas, individual fan coil units can be adjusted through the BMS, which can be accomplished by the occupant phoning the building manager. As each unit can be controlled, is this sufficient for occupant controllability? A benefit is that the BMS ca

In our Healthcare project, there are different workers during the morning, afternoon and evening, with a time of 8 hours each. If I count the FTE, I get a total of workers greater to the number of workstations. And this affects to IEQc6.1 and IEQc6.2. What is the process for counting FTE in hospitals with 3 shifts of 8 hours per day? How to resolve the number of workstation in IEQc6? Since the total number of workstation is linked from PIF3. Thanks

You have to select the shift with the most FTEs, do your calculations off that number and narrate the shift work and that all workstations are covered by the largest shift.

Thanks Susan. Then, I have to only specify the largest shift work in PI3 form? So, FTE is lower for calculations in WEp1 and others.

Hi again. Then, I have to input in PI 3 Form total FTE (all shift), and to describe the circumstances of work shifts in IEQc6.1 and IEQc6.2. Or To include only the largest shift in PI 3 Form?? Thanks again

I would input the total FTE from all shifts on PIf3 form and then include a narrative to describe the breakdown of FTE on each shift. Then, you'd need to adjust the total occupants or FTE reported for various credits and prerequisites based on the specific requirements of each individual credit. For example, IEQp1 requires accounting for the peak occupants in a given moment whereas WEp1 requires the total daily occupants from all shifts to be included.
