NC-v4.1 MRc1:Building Life-Cycle Impact Reduction

Establishing "Baseline Building"

Hi All,
My team and I are working through how to determine our baseline building for this credit.  The language reads:
"The baseline and proposed buildings must be of comparable size, function, orientation, and operating energy performance as defined in EA Prerequisite Minimum Energy Performance."

So, what's constant? Structural system, envelope R-values, envelope cladding?  Has anyone had success with achieving this credit, and if so, how did you establish your baseline?

Hi Kelsey, I am wrestling with this exact question and I am curious how you resolved it?
