GRI Sustainability Reports

Pilot-Credits MRpc53:Responsible sourcing of raw materials
posted by  Christine Robbins-Elrod  on 

It's unclear where GRI-checked reports fall under the credit requirements - would they be considered self-declared for 1/2 value or third-party verified for full value?

In idiot terms could someone please tell me what makes up an "assembly". I am a glazing contractor working on a LEED project. I have two items needing LEED submittals for the MR4 credit.

75% steel/concrete threshold

Healthcare-v2009 MRc3:Sustainably sourced materials and products
posted by  Mark Meaders  on 

I am not clear on how this threshold is applied. Is this a cap, meaning, if steel/ concrete is over the 75% then any amount over won't count towards MRc3?

Hi, We already have a Smoke & Vape-Free Environment Policy in place since last year which prohibits smoking in and on the grounds, way beyond the 25ft requirement for LEED.

A Contradiction? (my project is under LEED NC 2009) The LEED 2009 ref. guide is unclear with the inclusions for Div. 31, and 32.

Are Base/Subbase Aggregate Materials part of Materials Cost?

posted by  Matthew Martin  on 

I have not seen this question about base/subbase addressed here yet. I have read the comment fill materials are part of 31 2000 Div.
