Hi there, I am unsure what is meant by one specialty trade. I have a project that is considering re carpeting about half of their building, which is a substantial alteration. Would this not count?

Hi There, Clients wants to attain LEED for Silver Certification for its Villa. Note that the Villa is 4500 sqm and meets the minimum floor area requirement.

We have a very large site (609 acres), a lot of which is non-buildable land (open space, wetlands, slopes).

Dear LEED User Team.

I'm wondering what performance period would be acceptable for calculating the leakage rate (lbs of refrigerant added and over what time frame) for this credit.

What if your CS building scope does not include HVAC equipment (and therefore no refrigerants)? USGBC requires the entire building to meet this prereq (including tenant spaces).

I have tried to figure out but cannot wrap my head around another subject. MPR 6 requires sharing actual whole-project energy and water usage data for a period of at least 5 years.

Does anyone know what the rules are on engaging in rainwater management in Colorado? I'm under the impression that this is against the law in the state.

Hello, Could someone please clarify where exterior hardscape spaces that are covered by the building roof should be counted?

This may sound silly to most that have not had materials reviewed by GBCI, but how exactly is a bicycle rack defined? One rack can serve 1 or 10+ bicycles.
