FAQs about EQc2 :

Is all solid wood considered inherently non-emitting? I’ve seen sources that say only solid wood flooring counts as inherently non-emitting.

Are throw rugs subject to the credit requirements?

If a ceramic tile receives a top coat after it is manufactured, is it exempt from the credit requirements?

What are the adhesives and sealants to be included in the documentation?

I'm looking for a certification that tells me if a given product will meet the LEED v4 requirements, but I don't see one in a given product area. Am I missing something?

When products claim that they meet California Section 01350, does the product also meet LEED v4 requirements for low-emitting materials?

How do I know if a product complies with LEED v4 or if it was tested under an older non-compliant standard?

In past versions of LEED, it was easy to specify VOC limits. Is the specification process the same for LEED v4?

Is there a VOC budget method for this credit?

What are the limits on the VOC budget method?

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

If one part of my multicomponent wall system is not compliant, can I still get full credit?

Our building is atypical, and the walls and ceilings are not clearly defined. How should we classify these components?

Has anyone found a terrazzo resin and sealing system that is LEED v4 compliant, i.e. CDPH, and they're happy with? Thanks!

We have used Terroxy. I can't speak too much on performance as I've only worked with the LEED documentation aspect, but I know our design teams have spec'ed it on multiple projects.

Funny you should mention Terroxy, that's exactly what I got a question about but I can't find documentation that they are CDPH compliant. Do you have anything you can point me to?

Here's a letter stating the system has undergone testing: https://www.tmsupply.com/TMSupply/files/1f/1f6d3d6c-2fe8-4b6d-84b4-24ca8a769470.pdf    I will need to reach out to them for the actual testing certificate on a couple projects in design right now - so far have only had to document the system's v2009 compliance.

Hi all, I have a project team asking for clarification on how the area for reporting the terrazzo was determined and reported for this credit, and if the reviewers took issue. Any insight? They have the same question for plaster applied to the ceiling, and fabric-wrapped acoustic panels for the walls. I'm leafing through my various projects to see if I can find an example that was accepted but haven't found one yet.

I use the area of the surface the product has been applied to.

Am I naive in believing this is information that REVIT can spit out quite easily? (not being sarcastic here.) We did something similar for the Interior Lighting credit - to determine areas of different surface reflectance.
