LEED Project DocumentationLEED Project Documentation
• How to Get What You Want
• How to Improve Your Submissions
Documentation - Specification TipsDocumentation - Specification Tips
• Division 1 Sustainable Design Requirement Spec, Construction Waste Management Spec and Commission Spec are a critical first step in aligning contractor with LEED effort.
– Explain goals to contractor– Explain goals to contractor
– Spell out contractors’ responsibility• Require Preconstruction Conference
• LEED Action Plan
• Monthly submittals
– Spell out submittal requirements• Focus on Construction Credits
• Material Cost, Recycled Content, Mfg/extraction location
• Specific LEED requirements
• Product specs
– Repeat Submittal requirements specific to each section.
• Div 1 specs typically stay with general.
Documentation - Specification Tips Continued
Documentation - Specification Tips Continued
Why ?
• Product specs are sent to each vendor preparing submittal
• The general is going to prepare the submittal
– Require that Critical performance requirements be Highlighted in the Submittal.
• Best to ask for separate cover in the spec for LEED information.
General Tips on LEED SubmissionsGeneral Tips on LEED Submissions

– Use color and easy to read text.

– Check the score at the bottom of the template
– Don’t be afraid to experiment with the template to understand how changes impact you score.
Things to know Things to know
• Two types of credits– Design Credits
