CI-v4 EQc9:Acoustic performance

TI scope vs. CS base building

How do we achieve this credit based only on TI scope of work? If the core & shell building does not pursue acoustic performance compliance, how do we deal with core restroom or mechanical room adjacencies? Do we exclude them because they were not part of our scope? Do we have to configure our space so that no conference room for example is adjacent to a core restroom or mechanical room? Or do we have to retro fit them somehow? Or increase the acoustic requirements on our side of the wall?
