Has anyone heard of an alternate compliance path where we count the new greenspace we're creating where we're removing hardscape, as a reduction in the heat island effect on the site?

Hi, Could anyone tell me what would be considered "regular" maintenance for pressure washing concrete to be able to use the higher SRI value for the concrete?

Hi! My project will have a lot of parking spaces that cant be shaded by trees or with open grid pavement.

At a project attempting SSc7.1 white cement tile has covered 100% of exterior hardscape. According to the Reference Guide table (p.122) the SRI value of the white cement tile is 90.

May be this is a very basic question. But I would like to know from you all, how can we determine whether a open grid paving block is 50% previous or not?

How should non-roof vegetated areas be treated when completing the table in SSc7.1 form? What would be the SRI value for this area?

I've been working on this type of strategy for a long time but our design team asked me a question I could not answer: For a project in a hot, arid climate we are designing parking coverage for 10

Our project has multiple levels of parking under a large podium plaza. I believe this is what what the Reference Guide (p 112) refers to as a "deck", right?
