FAQs about LTc6 :

Can double-stacked bike storage racks comply with this credit?

Regarding the requirement to provide shower facilities on commercial and institutional projects, what counts as “on-site”?

What is length of stay is considered ‘short-term’ vs. ‘long-term’?

If the building is listed in Appendix 2 Default occupancy codes with zero transients, does that mean we don’t have to provide any short-term bike spaces?

Hi Fellow LEED Users,

Looking for a bit of advice in regard to bike racks. I'm working on a new school construction, Is it possible to use the an overhang of a building as the shelter for the bike racks could or do we absolutely need a freestanding space? 

 

Thank you

Doesn't need to be freestanding. Just as long as the overhang is wide enough to fully shelter the bikes from rain and snow.
