QUESTION: 21

Which material would have the largest contribution to Materials and Resources Credit, Building Product Disclosure and Optimization- Sourcing of Raw Materials, Option 2. Leadership Extraction Practices?

75% Rainforest Alliance Certified flooring with a total cost of $3,000 USD
10% Rainforest Alliance Certified furniture with a total cost of $30,000 USD
50% Rainforest Alliance Certified wood veneer with a total cost of $5,000 USD
100% Rainforest Alliance Certified wheatboard with a total cost of $2,000 USD

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

In the context of LEED AP ID+C V4, for the Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - Sourcing of Raw Materials, Option 2: Leadership Extraction Practices, the contribution is calculated based on the cost of the product and the percentage of certification. The furniture option, despite having a lower percentage of certification, has the highest total cost, which results in the largest contribution by cost to the credit.

Reference:

This approach is consistent with the LEED v4 guidelines for Interior Design and Construction, which prioritize the economic value of materials when calculating contributions to credits. The Rainforest Alliance Certification is recognized as a leadership extraction practice, and the contribution is calculated based on the total cost of the product and the percentage of the product that is certified.

To meet the requirements for Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Advanced Energy Metering, Option 2. Advanced Metering, energy meters must be installed for energy end uses in

space cooling, interior fans and receptacles
interior lighting, space heating, space cooling and interior fans
interior lighting, space heating, space cooling, interior fans and receptacles
exterior lighting, interior lighting, space heating, space cooling, interior fans, service water heating and receptacles

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The LEED v4 criteria for the Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Advanced Energy Metering, Option 2 requires advanced energy metering for all whole-building energy sources as well as for any individual energy end uses that account for 10% or more of the total annual consumption of the building. From the provided energy end-use consumption data, it is clear that space cooling, interior fans, and receptacles each represent more than 10% of the total energy consumption. Additionally, interior lighting and space heating together also account for a significant portion of the energy consumption. Hence, to meet the credit requirements, advanced metering must be installed for all these categories, aligning with option C.
