In a large industrial or commercial building, which energy end uses are classified as systems composed of discrete pieces of equipment that can be metered together for the purposes of Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Advanced Energy Metering?
The project team wants to modify the design of an office building copy room to minimize the risk of airborne contamination to the surrounding space. The design includes a separate exhaust, but due to design constraints the partition walls of the room cannot run deck-to-deck. What can the team do to achieve Indoor Environmental Quality Credit, Enhanced Indoor Air Quality Strategies?

A critical factor in determining a project’s eligibility for LTc3: Compact and Connected Development, Option 2. Access to Transit, Path 1. Public Transit Service is the:
A hospital certified underLEED V5in 2018 is designing and constructing a 21,000 ft² (1,950.96 m²) vertical addition, plus vegetated terraces and a mechanical penthouse.
The original hospital achieved the Gold certification level and was built with the capacity to add three floors—levels six through eight—to the top of the structure. This addition requires partial demolition of the roof and the floor below.
The project is designed to be architecturally cohesive with the existing building façade and is targeting Platinum certification under LEED v5.
The campus is in a dense urban area adjacent to several bus stops, a light-rail transit station within a 2,500 ft. (762 m) walking distance, and a bicycle docking point at the main entrance to the property. An on-campus shuttle service connects patients, visitors, and staff from the parking areas to each medical building and the light-rail station.
The healthcare campus has existing infrastructure; therefore, no new roads, sidewalks, parking structures, or ground-level landscaping will be installed.
The new floors have separate mechanical systems in the penthouse, but piping for public and patient restrooms, janitor closets, and staff break rooms connects directly to the main hospital plumbing system.
The newly installed medical equipment uses gas, steam, and chilled water supplied by the campus central plant.
The project team is designing the maternity ward to increase patient interaction with the vegetated terraces and green roof to promote healing and reduce recovery time. Which of the following credits or prerequisites can be achieved through this design approach?
For schools intended for grades eight and below (or ages 14 and below), which of the following scenarios would demonstrate compliance with Location and Transportation Credit, Access to Quality Transit, Schools, Option 2. Pedestrian Access?
