Question 106

A commercial office building with a footprint of 70,000 ft2 (6 503.2 m2) has an overall site area of 200,000 ft2 (18 580.6 m2). The project design includes 15,000 ft2 (1 393.5 m2) of pedestrian oriented hardscape and 18,000 ft2 (1
672.3 m2)
of vegetated open space. Which of the following is necessary to satisfy the requirement for the outdoor space to be physically accessible when calculating the Sustainable Sites Credit, Open Space?

Correct Answer: D
Explanation
A pedestrian-oriented paving or turf area with physical site elements that accommodate outdoor social activities is necessary to satisfy the requirement for the outdoor space to be physically accessible when calculating the Sustainable Sites Credit, Open Space. This is because the outdoor space must be designed to encourage regular use by occupants and visitors1. A garden space dedicated to industrial food production for use by local communities may not be accessible to the building occupants and visitors2. A garden space with only one vegetation type and species during the summer for visual interest does not meet the requirement of having two or more types of vegetation or overhead vegetated canopy1. A dark paving area with site elements to encourage parking near wetlands or naturally designed ponds is not considered as pedestrian-oriented hardscape and may have negative impacts on the natural environment3.

Question 107

What is the first step to earn the Water Efficiency Credit, Cooling Tower Water Use?

Correct Answer: C
The first step in earning the Water Efficiency (WE) Credit: Cooling Tower Water Use is to identify the maximum number of cycles of concentration for the cooling tower or evaporative condenser. This step establishes a baseline for water quality and helps determine potential water savings through maximizing the number of cycles, which minimizes water and chemical usage in cooling systems. Subsequent steps may involve chemical analysis (D) or exploring alternative water sources, but setting the cycles is the initial requirement.

Question 108

In pursuit of the Materials and Resources Credit, Building Disclosure and Optimization - Sourcing of Raw Materials, Option 2. Leadership Extraction Practices, which of the following statements is true related to products purchased for temporary use (formwork, bracing and scaffolding) on the project?

Correct Answer: A
Temporary wood products cannot be included in the calculations for the Materials and Resources Credit, Building Disclosure and Optimization - Sourcing of Raw Materials, Option 2. Leadership Extraction Practices. This is because the credit only applies to permanently installed building products, not to products purchased for temporary use on the project1. The other options are false. If any temporary wood materials are included in the calculation, they must be excluded from the total value of permanently installed building products1. Non-certified wood materials do not contribute to other credits, unless they meet other criteria such as recycled content or regional materials2. FSC-certified wood materials purchased for more than one project cannot be applied to other projects seeking LEED certification, unless they are reused or salvaged materials3.

Question 109

Which of the following is a leadership extraction practice that rewards projects for choosing materials with closed-loop recycling and take-back programs in LEED?

Correct Answer: C
Extended producer responsibility
Extended producer responsibility is a leadership extraction practice that encourages manufacturers to take back their products or packaging at the end of their useful life and recycle them in a closed-loop system. This reduces the environmental impacts of extraction, transportation, and disposal of raw materials. LEED rewards projects for choosing materials that have extended producer responsibility programs or policies in place.

Question 110

A building owner in an arid climate is trying to design an outdoor lunch area for the tenants. Which landscaping strategy is important to employ in order to reduce water demand?

Correct Answer: B
Xeriscaping is a landscaping method that reduces water demand by using plants that are adapted to dry climates, mulching the soil to retain moisture, and minimizing the amount of lawn and other turf areas.
Xeriscaping can help save water, money, and energy, as well as improve the health of the soil and the environment.
