LEED Rating System Selection

Possibility of LEED Certification being changed from New Construction to Core & Shell in the Construction Phase

Greetings.

I am working on a project with 8 mid-rise buildings, each of them targetting LEED Platinum under New Construction (NC)- Version 4.  However, during construction, one of the buildings has been modified to Core and Shell (CS) type. As the project was already registered under LEED NC in the design phase, is there any provision to modify the certification program from NC to CS or the current registration has to be cancelled and a new registration under CS has to be done. Kindly provide your feedback as the re-registration will have commercial variations and also will extend the certification time. 

My desired path will be- USGBC revise the certification program from NC to CS without or with nominal fees, and we will go for a combined design + construction submission towards the end of construction phase. Is it possible?

 

Best Regards

Alokmay B

Hi Alokmay, If the project has not gone through any reviews yet, a project administrator can typically change the LEED Rating System type themselves from the project's 'Details' tab on LEED Online. You should be able to see a 'Change' button. I would advise keeping a copy of any documentation that you may have uploaded to your project before you decide to move ahead with any changes. Hoping this helps.

Thank you for the reply. I missed mentioning in my query that the design review has been done and around 40+ credits were approved. Is there any way that the submission can be revised to Core and Shell. We look to submit the documents for a combined design + construction review.
