Hi, The Owner is constructing a tower with high end tenants on the his scope.

I am going to be modeling a building that plans on buying landfill gas to burn in boilers which will contribute to EAc2.

In our new project we provide 65 parking lots. To achieve the credit requirements we must provide 4 parking lots for low emitting vehicles. We provide 3 special parking lots for SMART cars.

I'm starting a new project on a bar and grill this is seeking LEED silver. I'm a little confused on how a restaurant would achieve this credit.

The latest version of LEED NC & CS v3.0 Addenda incorporates changes and improvements to LEED 2009 resources. However there are some considerations that were not clear.

Tristan, Is it possible to show a sample calc for credit 7.1. I am not sure how to calculate this and would welcome any insights as to how about providing this calculation.

To clarify: 1.) Can I use a combination of underground parking stalls AND light colored pavement (SRI - 35 typical new gray concrete) AND landscape (tree) shading to achieve this point?

Our project is a major renovation project. Do the ASHRAE mandatory provisions apply to existing systems/components that are not altered?

Would the USGBC accept a dual flush converter as compliant vs installing new toilets?

We have a 3,000 SF building which will be occupied intermittently by the client/owner.
