What are the three phases within the Integrative Process Credit, Integrative Process?

Pre-design, Discovery, Design and Construction
Discovery, Design and Construction, Operations and Feedback
Schematic Design, Design and Construction, Operations and Feedback
Design Charrette, Schematic Design, Operations and Feedback

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The Integrative Process credit under the LEED BD+C v4 rating system encourages the coordination of all the project team members, starting from the predesign phase, to discover unique opportunities for project design, enhanced building performance, and green features. The three phases within the

Integrative Process Credit are:
Discovery phase: This involves investigating at least two energy-related and several water-related sustainable design strategies prior to the end of schematic design. Design and Construction (implementation) phase: This requires the project teams to turn their findings into reality.
Occupance, Operations, and Performance Feedback phase: This phase involves the evaluation of the implemented strategies and their effectiveness.

QUESTION: 127

When preparing the Sustainable Sites Prerequisite, Construction Activity Pollution Prevention, the Construction General Permit must contain which of the following?

Waste Management Plan
Building orientation on the site
Installation plan for perimeter control
Minimum standards for equipment exhaust

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The Construction General Permit (CGP) for the Sustainable Sites Prerequisite, Construction Activity Pollution Prevention, must contain an installation plan for perimeter control. This is part of the Erosion and Sedimentation Control (ESC) Plan, which is designed to prevent loss of soil during construction by stormwater runoff and/or wind erosion, prevent sedimentation of storm sewer or receiving streams, and prevent polluting the air with dust and particulate matter.

QUESTION: 128

A LEED AP is evaluating whether Indoor Environmental Quality Credit, Acoustic Performance is feasible for a LEED
AP Building Design and Construction: Healthcare project.
Which of the following groups of documents would best inform this decision?

Airport flyover maps, mechanical plans, wall sections
Patient records, wall sections, ceiling panel cut sheets
Occupancy statistics, patient records, MRI machine specifications
MRI machine specifications, mechanical plans, occupancy statistics

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The Acoustic Performance credit under the LEED BD+C: Healthcare rating system addresses the acoustic environment in healthcare spaces. It requires strategies that reduce noise levels, control background noise, and provide sound privacy. The documents that would best inform this decision are:

Airport flyover maps: These can help determine the level of external noise intrusion into the building, which can affect the acoustic environment.
Mechanical plans: These can provide information about the location and type of mechanical equipment, which can be a source of internal noise.
Wall sections: These can provide information about the construction of the walls, including materials and assemblies, which can affect sound transmission between spaces.
