FAQs about EAp1 :

Can the CxA be contracted through the general contractor if the owner requires a single contract for the project?

For a building with individual systems per unit, does every single system need to be commissioned?

What kinds of projects must the CxA demonstrate experience on?

What level of authority does the CxA have towards correcting inaccurate or erroneous construction?

Our project is considering LEED after construction has begun. Can we meet the EAp1 requirements and thus be eligible for LEED certification?

Can the CxA be a member of the design or construction team?

What type of certification is the CxA required to have?

The commissioning process turned up a few issues with the commissioned systems that should be corrected. Do we have to correct these issues and include documentation of that as part of our LEED documentation?

NC-v4 EAp1:Fundamental commissioning and verification

Interpretation of text relating to Envelope

Hi, see here an extract from the Reference Guide: "The envelope must be covered in the OPR and BOD, but full envelope commissioning is not required unless the project team pursues EA Credit Enhanced Commissioning, Option 2."

What does envelope must be covered typically mean? Is it construction detail or performance requirements?
