Introduction
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is a voluntary rating system which allows the environmental credentials of buildings to be benchmarked against an internationally recognized standard. LEED is administered by the Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI) and was initially designed for the rating of office buildings in the US. In recent years, the LEED portfolio has been expanded to include a number of different systems aimed at different types of building and stages of construction. MV-2 is registered and will be assessed under LEED for Core & Shell Version 3.0. LEED NC v3.0 is assessed under six categories: Sustainable Sites Water Efficiency Energy and Atmosphere Materials and Resources Indoor Environmental Quality Innovation in Design
Within most categories there are one or more prerequisites which must be achieved in order for any rating to be awarded. Each category also contains optional Credits which have one or more points associated with them. Five further points are available for Innovation in Design. These credits are awarded for unspecified uses of innovative technologies and practices or exceptional performance in a given area. Credits are achievable for good practice in the design, construction and management of a building. The client has an aspiration to achieve a rating of Gold. A full list of the prerequisites and Credits being targeted is provided in Appendix 7.1. As part of MEEZAs commitment towards sustainability, the Contractor shall comply with the sustainability objectives targeted through the application of LEED C&S v3.0 The project is aiming to achieve maximum possible Credits according to the LEED assessment method, in order to achieve the target of Gold level certification. In order to achieve this, best practice in sustainable construction shall be required from the Contractor. Comprehensive documentation of this best practice will be required to provide evidence for construction-related Credits. The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System is, in its simplest terms, a method of measuring. A third party certification process confirms the projects achievement of the design goals by reviewing documentation collected during the design and construction process. Adherence to LEED ensures that facilities are designed, constructed, and operated effectively. LEED focuses the design and construction team on operating life cycle costs, not initial construction costs. This addendum is designed to help contractors fulfill the requirements of the LEED Green Building Rating System.

1.1
LEED for Core & Shell v3.0 Green Building Rating System
MV-2 has been registered for certification under LEED for Core & Shell v3.0. The LEED for Core & Shell scheme is a set of performance standards for certifying the sustainable design and construction of core and shell buildings against a number of environmental criteria in each of the following categories:
Sustainable Sites (SS) Water Efficiency (WE) Energy & Atmosphere (EA) Materials & Resources (MR) Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) Innovation & Design Process (ID)
As with the other LEED schemes there are varying levels of certification which correspond to different levels of environmental performance. These are shown below, along with the points required for each under the LEED Core & Shell system. LEED Certified (40 49 points) LEED Silver LEED Gold (50 59 points) (60 79 points) Goal for MV-2
LEED Platinum (80 points and above)
1.2
Compliance
Compliance with Construction related requirements of LEED C&S v3.0 is a responsibility of the Contractor. The Contractor shall comply with any LEED obligations that would be affected by the Contractors work. The Contractor is required to produce the required documentation and submit the Credit templates to the Green Building Certification Institute confirming that the Credit requirements have been satisfied.
1.3
LEED Terms
LEED Reference Guide for Core & Shell Development: This 645+ page book gives information on the LEED System and green construction techniques involved in capturing LEED Credit points. It can be purchased online at www.usgbc.org. LEED Project Score Card: The Score Card is a two page summary table showing which of the 106 possible LEED Credit points are being pursued in a given project. LEED AP: Individuals in the construction industry may become LEED Accredited Professionals (LEED APs) by passing the LEED Exam (One Credit point is captured by having a LEED Accredited Professional on a project team). LEED MDC: A LEED project needs one individual, called a LEED Coordinator, who is appointed by the project team. Their role is to advance the LEED process in general and oversee the collation of the necessary documentation and its submission to the USGBC. The role is typically fulfilled by a client-appointed LEED AP.
Arup Associates
Additionally, a Contractor should choose to identify one staff person to Champion the Contractors LEED-related work on a project. This is likely to be a full-time role. This Contractor-appointed LEED champion works in cooperation with the overall LEED Coordinator on the project. LEED Online: LEED Online is a web-based resource that enables members of the project team to work together to document compliance with the LEED rating system. LEED Letter Template: The LEED Letter Templates are where Credit compliance is demonstrated. They are found on the LEED-Online website and can be accessed by individuals signed up to the project. They are completed by the relevant project team members (i.e. Designers/LEED Contractor Champion). Templates generally require a narrative describing how the project has met the intent of the credit. Some templates also require the completion of embedded calculations, check-lists, information cross-referenced from other project uploads and electronic signatures from registered signatories to demonstrate compliance. Some credits require supporting documentation, in addition to the contents of the template, to be uploaded with the LEED Letter Templates.
1.4
The role of the Contractor on LEED Projects
The Contractors roles on LEED projects can be discerned by referring to the LEED Score Card, which is a two page Project Checklist. It records those required Credits and elective categories which the team can choose to apply to any project. A copy of the LEED Score Card is given in Appendix 7.1. LEED certification requires all sustainable practice to be documented. If the project claims a Credit in any category, it must have the paperwork to prove it. Assembling the necessary evidence for the LEED submission (which normally occurs shortly after occupancy) is an ongoing effort and cannot be postponed until the end of the construction schedule. The required documentation is not As-Built; it is a continuous trail of compiled evidence. The LEED credit requirements described in this document are those are the contractors responsibility. The remaining credits in the LEED system are designated as design credits. These have already been incorporated in the design and will therefore still require some contractor involvement in delivering a building that meets the requirements outlined in the design documents. For this reason, any contractor-driven variations in the design will need to be approved by the LEED team, in addition to the relevant discipline leader in the design team, in order to avoid placing the LEED requirements in jeopardy. See appendix 7.1 further details of targeted design & construction credits.
1.5
Name a LEED Champion
When the job starts, a LEED Champion needs to be identified by the Contractor to support all LEED-related activity on the site. The Champion, who ideally is not the project manager, can be in charge of providing continuous monitoring of sustainable practice and worker education, as well as tracking whether documentation is being kept up-to-date. Despite well-planned and wellreceived LEED education, workers may, due to force of habit, revert to conventional methods, which could compromise LEED Credits if not detected and prevented. It is necessary for the Design Teams LEED AP to submit information supporting the claim of the design Credits and the construction team appointed LEED Champion to submit the supporting documentation that the project has met the intent of each prerequisite and each Credit point relating to the Contractor Credits. This information is submitted in an on line application package which includes Letter Templates, required submittals and supplementary information for the Credits sought.
1.6
Documentation Responsibilities of the LEED Champion
As suggested above, the Contractor should designate one person on the job site to be responsible for tracking, monitoring and collecting all LEED information. This person should know the job well, and be given adequate time in their day-to-day work to fulfill their LEED responsibilities. It is not a good idea to load the primary project manager with this responsibility in addition to all of their
Arup Associates
normal job site responsibilities. It takes time to do a thorough job be sure to budget this time into the job description. When contractors build this LEED documentation expertise in-house, work on LEED projects will become more efficient over time. By managing and streamlining documentation processes, the LEED portion of the project will become highly cost-effective. These abilities will help to qualify companies for future LEED projects. The Contractor-appointed LEED Champion will work in cooperation with the overall LEED Coordinator on the project. The LEED Champion should start electronic and hard-copy LEED documentation folders at the outset of the project. Set up dividers for each Credit, and keep track of everything. Everything means relevant e-mail correspondence, faxes and letters relating to LEED challenges and issues met along the way, sections of specifications and contracts that relate to each Credit, and of course, all specific process documentation required by each LEED Credit, as described in its letter template. The LEED Champion will be invited to join the project leedonline system and will be responsible for completing the credit templates for those LEED credits that fall within the contractors responsibility, including the submission of all required supporting documentation. The following sections begin to address the contractors role in attaining specific score points and their related impact to the project.
1.7
Specific LEED for Core & Shell Contractor Prerequisite Responsibility
It is important to notice that there are eight (8) required items which all LEED for Core & Shell projects must incorporate. These prerequisite actions reflect the belief that all eight are so fundamental to energy efficiency, ecological and human health protection that without them, no project can be considered sustainable. Contractors delivering a Core & Shell Project would be fundamentally involved in two of these prerequisites: SSP1 Construction Activity Pollution Prevention EAP1 Fundamental Commissioning of Building Energy Systems
1.8
Specific LEED for Core & Shell Contractor Credit Responsibility
Although much of what makes a building LEED certified depends on design decisions, contractors have a significant role in implementing LEED on a project. The contractor is required to ensure LEED requirements included in the design are met during construction, assemble and maintain records necessary to document a building's compliance with LEED requirements, and provide the required supporting documentation for the construction credits. This will require the contractor to: 1. Assemble and maintain records necessary to document a building's compliance with LEED requirements. 2. Execute new construction methods per specifications, at a reasonable cost 3. Manage Construction Waste efficiently (LEED Credits are available for achieving 50% and 75% waste recycling or salvage rates on a project). 4. Source materials locally (LEED Credits are available for using locally-sourced materials to a total of 10% and 20% of the total value of materials used on a project). 5. Source recycled materials and materials with recycled content (LEED Credits are available for using recycled materials to a total of 10% and 20% of the total value of materials used on a project). 6. Source FSC-certified wood products (LEED Credit is available to projects which use FSCcertified timber for 50% of the total value of wood-based materials) 7. Manage indoor air quality during construction to protect the health of construction workers and to prevent contamination of the buildings materials and ventilation systems. 8. Demonstrate knowledge of and adapt construction processes to use adhesives and sealants, paints and coatings, flooring systems, composite wood and agrifibre products,
Arup Associates
furniture and furnishings which contain and emit low quantities of VOCs (volatile organic compounds). 9. Assist Designer/Client in identifying ways to reach a project's LEED goals. Contractors delivering the MEEZA MV-2 Core & Shell Project would rely on these skills to properly fulfill their role in delivering the project. In particular, they would play a key role in delivering the following Credits: SS5.1 Protect or Restore Natural Habitat EA2 Enhanced Commissioning MR2 Construction Waste Management MR3 Materials Reuse MR4 Recycled Content MR5 Regional Materials MR6 Certified Wood IEQ3 Construction IAQ Plan: During Construction IEQ4.1 Low-Emitting Materials: Adhesives and Sealants IEQ4.2 Low-Emitting Materials: Paints and Coatings IEQ4.3 Low-Emitting Materials: Flooring Systems IEQ4.4 Low-Emitting Materials: Composite Wood and Agrifibre Products
The requirements of each of these credits, and their application to the MEEZA MV-2 project in particular, are described in more detail in the following sections.

2.1
Sustainable Sites
SS Prerequisite 1 Construction Activity Pollution Prevention
Contractors and trades should be very familiar with the erosion protection and sedimentation prevention expected of this Sustainable Site Prerequisite. With the current LEED manual and checklist (which presently references the US Environmental Protection Act (EPA)), some clauses offer the option of using local codes and regulations if they are more stringent. It is necessary for contractors and trades to verify whether local expectations and requirements exceed the EPA goals for each project and Municipality, and to ensure that they are working to the more stringent standard. 2.1.1 Meeting the requirements for SS Prerequisite
To meet the requirements of SS Prerequisite 1, the Contractor must prepare and implement an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan in accordance to the requirements of the 2003 EPA Construction General Permit OR local standards and codes, whichever is more stringent. The EPA Construction General Permit is available from the EPA website, at http://cfpub.epa.gov/npdes/stormwater/cgp.cfm. The plan must describe the measures used in meeting this standard, or the more stringent, relevant local standard, and must accomplish the following objectives: Prevent loss of soil during construction by stormwater runoff and/or wind erosion, including protecting soil by stockpiling for reuse. Prevent sedimentation of storm sewers or receiving streams. Prevent pollution of the air with dust and particulate matter.
In the preparation of an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan, there are two general categories of control suggested: Protection of in situ sensitive or susceptible areas. Construction of physical measures and controls.
Given the nature of the site the suggested measures should include but are not limited to the following: Stabilization of surfaces exposed to wind and run-off using hydro-seeding, mulching, etc. Filter media in temporary run-off channels and those affected by the works, for example straw and filter cloth dams, etc. Filters at / under municipal storm drain catch basin covers. Dust and wind erosion during demolition. Three stage settlement basins for de-watering. Wheel washes and load covers on trucks during excavation. Concrete trucks cleaning stations prior to leaving the site, or ensure all concrete is supplied in trucks with onboard self-cleaning systems.
It is the Contractors responsibility to prepare a comprehensive plan that meets these requirements, to implement this plan, and to thoroughly document and record the progress of these efforts. This documentation may include photographing the measures taken, compiling laboratory test results of settlement basin waters, and copying of permits and approvals from the municipal engineer. This is a compulsory prerequisite. If the Plan is not well conceived, enforced, or documented, the whole LEED application will be rejected.
Arup Associates
2.1.2
Submittals
The following project data and calculation information is required to document Credit compliance using the LEED C&S v3.0 submittal: Provide a copy of the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan that includes specifications that detail the erosion and control best management practices used on the project site and the responsible parties for implementation. Provide copies for the project drawings, date-stamped photographs and inspection logs or reports to document the erosion and sedimentation control measures implemented on the site.
2.2
SS Credit 5.1 Protect or Restore Habitat
Building work often damages the ecology of the local site, including indigenous plants and regional animal populations. The intent of SS Credit 5.1 is to limit this damage and, as far as possible, to conserve existing natural areas. 2.2.1 Meeting the requirements for SS Credit 5.1
As part of SS Credit 5.1 (Protect or Restore Habitat), Contractors are required to limit all site disturbances to within the following maximum distances of the site perimeter, as defined by the following features: 40 feet beyond the building perimeter; 10 feet beyond surface walkways, patios, surface parking and utilities less than 12 inches in diameter; 15 feet beyond primary roadway curbs and main utility branch trenches 25 feet beyond constructed areas with permeable surfaces, including stormwater detention facilities, that require additional staging areas to limit compaction in the constructed area.
The Contractor shall establish clearly marked construction boundaries that conform to the above requirements to minimize the disturbance of the existing site. No construction activity shall be permitted outside of this boundary. This shall be appropriately documented. Documentation shall include a site plan showing construction disturbance limits and appropriate photographs of the established boundary. 2.2.2 Submittals
The following project data and calculation information is required to document Credit compliance using the LEED C&S v3.0 submittal: Provide a copy of the site plan showing construction disturbance limits. Provide date-stamped photographs showing the construction boundary and its external perimeter, giving clear evidence of its effectiveness in limiting site disturbance.
2.3
SS Credit 7.1 Heat Island Effect: Non-Roof
The use of dark, non-reflective surfaces for parking, roofs, walkways and other hardscape contributes to the heat island effect by absorbing the suns warmth, which then radiates into the surroundings. This increases building cooling loads in urbanised areas and is detrimental to site habitat, wildlife and animal migration corridors. The intent of SS Credit 7.1 is to employ strategies, materials and landscaping techniques that reduce the heat absorption of exterior materials. 2.3.1 Meeting the requirements for SS Credit 7.1
Arup Associates
It is the contractors responsibility to ensure that the materials used for cladding the shading structure which is used to cover the MV-2 carparking areas have a sufficiently high SRI to meets the requirements of the credit. For exemplary performance in the credit, 100% of carparking spaces must be covered using a material with an SRI (Solar Reflectance Index) of at least 29. As the MV-2 shading canopy has perforations with a 15% open area, the shade cladding material must have an SRI that is greater than 35. 2.3.2 Submittals
The following project data and calculation information is required to document Credit compliance using the LEED C&S v3.0 submittal: Provide a copy of the site plan showing all hardscape and parking areas at the project site. Provide a copy of the site plan showing the area of covered parking on the project site. Provide information describing the area, reflectance and emittance of the covering materials used in the construction of the car park shade.

MR Credit 2 Construction Waste Management
Construction and demolition activities generate a huge amount of waste. Contractors and trades are well placed to find innovative and creative ways to reduce this waste. New markets for recycled and salvaged or reused materials are emerging all the time. Contractors are able to find places where construction waste is reused, rather than thrown away, and they are recovering costs. There are 2 LEED points available for construction waste management: MR 2 Construction Waste Management 50-75% (2 points)
It is the contractors responsibility to capture both of these points, by diverting a minimum of 75% of construction waste from the landfill. 4.1.1 Meetings the requirements for MR Credit 2
Meeting the requirements of LEED documentation for construction waste management takes place in the context of a properly developed Job Site Recycling Program. The following steps integrate the LEED documentation requirements into a Job Site Recycling Program. 1. Construction waste management begins with a plan which is best developed as early as possible. Establishing good housekeeping practices and getting trades to sort their own waste (all nonhazardous construction and demolition debris) into identifiable bins from project inception are steps which nurture a positive project attitude. A recycling clause in their trade contract can provide a useful incentive. A sample Construction Waste Management Plan (CWMP) is included in Appendix 7.2.1. 2. Hold a meeting with the project team, including the trades and/or the recycling contractor(s) if one has been hired. Go through the construction schedule together, and review all potential sources of construction waste generation. Review potential alternatives to landfill disposal for each material. Look for reuse/salvage and recycling opportunities that are of low-cost by identifying on-site uses and reuses. Increasingly, recycling and demolition contractors are finding businesses that purchase recycled and salvaged materials, including used building material yards. Depending on the nature of the construction waste produced, a great deal of money can be saved through carefully planned waste removal and reuse. Each trade should develop their own waste management plan for their specific waste stream. These CWMPs should all be filed in a LEED resources binder. 3. Add the Construction Waste Management Plan as a recurring action item at the projects weekly or bi-weekly trade meeting. Require all trades attending to complete the Construction Waste Management Sheet provided in Appendix 7.2.2. By having the status of the plan reviewed together, peer pressure will be established and documentation will be submitted in timely fashion. Having the discussion recorded in the trade meeting minutes also supports the documentation. If necessary, withholding a percentage of invoice payments will encourage all trades to file their information. The CWMP should clearly define a person responsible for collecting this information. 4. The Contractor will be expected to sign a Letter Template certifying the extent of achievement under a particular LEED Credit point. MR Credit 2 is under the Contractors control. The Contractors contribution to the effort is to provide the back-up data, receipts, way-slips, manufacturers product data and/or certificates etc., all of which must be given to the LEED coordinator in a timely way. Remember, all of that information is compiled into the LEED submission after completion and occupancy. It is critical to keep the information flowing early and consistently. Once trades, sub-trades or suppliers are paid out or offsite, it is very difficult to get historic information from them.

5. The person responsible for collecting and tracking this information should continually update the LEED Letter Template as new information comes in. Keep versions up to date and complete, and file them both in hard copy in the LEED binder. 4.1.2 Submittals
The following project data and calculation information is required to document Credit compliance using the LEED C&S v3.0 submittal: Provide a copy of the Construction Waste Management Plan that identifies, at a minimum, the diversion goals, relevant construction debris and material to be diverted, the implementation protocols, and parties responsible for implementing the plan. Provide a summary log of all construction waste generated by type, the quantities of each type that were diverted and landfilled, and the total percentage of waste diverted from landfill disposal. A sample Construction Waste Management Sample Reporting Form is included in Appendix 7.2.2.

MR Credits 3 to 6 Materials Retention, Specification and Procurement

The Materials and Resources aspect of a LEED project is one of most importance for contractors and trades because it not only deals with construction waste management, but plays directly to strengths in sourcing and procurement of materials and products. It offers a great opportunity for contractors and trades to contribute directly to a projects success through detailed knowledge of specialty areas. The intention of these credits is to reduce the environmental impact of the materials used for construction, wherever possible. Project Architects and Clients with a strong commitment to LEED will assist in specifying LEEDfriendly materials in their specifications, and some will list specific product names and suppliers, however it is ultimately the Contractors responsibility to ensure that they procure compliant materials. This project may list the LEED requirement or goal for the particular material and ask/expect the Contractor and trades to then source and provide them. In a construction management arrangement, the trades can play a very significant role early in the selection of materials. As familiar as all designers would like to be with products and materials, contractors and trades are the experts in their own specialty areas. Bring those ideas forward. In particular, contractors and trades can assist in sourcing salvaged materials as part of the design process. There are a total of 6 points available through conscientious material retention and selection in the following categories: MR Credit 3: Materials Re-use Use of salvaged, refurbished or directly reused materials (1 point) MR Credit 4: Recycled Content Use of materials with post-consumer recycled content (2 points) MR Credit 5: Regional Materials Use of materials extracted, harvested, recovered and manufactured within 500 miles of the project site (3 points) MR Credit 6: Certified Wood (2 point) 4.2.1 Meeting the requirements for MR Credits 3, 4, 5 & 6
Sample Material Information Sheets are included in Appendix 7.3.1 for use on each of these Credits. In order to clarify this process of specifying, sourcing, installing, and documenting materials, what follows is a walk-through of the general steps involved. The same basic specification and documentation process is applicable for all of these Credits. A great deal of time and energy can be saved by using this process to streamline the materials Credits.
17
Arup Associates
Carefully review the project goals, LEED opportunities and specifications to determine how much of the material selection work has been done already and how achievable the goals are. Ensure that LEED materials goals and objectives can be adequately met. The team discussion and crosstalk often help with sourcing some of the more challenging materials. Write materials requirements, including documentation requirements, into the contracts of all trades. Include a sample of the Materials Information Sheet (provided in Appendix 7.3.1) in each specification section and contract to guide documentation requirements. Also include a reporting schedule for submitting completed Sheets. It is very important that the LEED Champion review all of the completed Material Information Sheets before the materials are installed. Sheets should be provided at time of contract award, confirming that the products meet the specifications. Ensure that cut sheets of products are included at the same time the Material Information Sheets are submitted. This allows time for material selections to be changed before it is too late or before it costs extra money. Keep a running record of materials submitted and acknowledged by the LEED Champion using a spreadsheet or database program that can calculate the percentage of total materials costs that are compliant with the requirements of each credit. This in turn will let the team know how well the project is doing against the Credit threshold. It can also help to manage the documentation needed from sub-trades, helping to identify gaps in information and to track that information down before the subtrades are paid and gone. In order to complete the various calculations necessary to validate the savings with respect to resource reuse, recycled content, local/regional materials, rapidly renewable materials, and certified wood, the Contractor and trades are required to provide the related material cost and quantities for the project. This information is eventually summarized on the LEED Letter Templates for each Credit. Where the information is for a material cost amount, this does not include labour costs and it particularly excludes Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) components and Electrical equipment and components. In the specific case of MR Credit 1 Building Reuse, a list must be maintained that details all shell attributes including element ID and the total area of new, existing and reused elements. The LEED Champion should co-ordinate this list with all of the trades. In the specific case of MR Credit 6 Certified Wood, the total material cost of all wood products used in the project is required to determine whether the certified wood Credit has been achieved. Formwork lumber and panels can be included in this unless they are rented. 4.2.2 Instructions to Bidders, Green Material Selection
Product selection will meet the targets and limits described here. Reference should also be made to Indoor Air Quality requirements IEQ Credits 4.1 4.4. MR 3: Materials Reuse 5% (1 point)
Reuse of materials diverts material from the construction waste stream, reducing the need for landfill space and environmental impacts from associated air and water contamination. The use of salvaged materials also avoids much of the impact associated with the procurement of new construction materials. At least 5% by cost of the materials to be used on site shall be salvaged, refurbished or reused materials reclaimed from other sites. Hazardous materials and building services components shall not be included in this Credit. See LEED Credit MR 3 in the LEED Reference Guide for Core & Shell Development. MR Credit 4: Recycled Content (2 points)
18
Arup Associates
Products with recycled content reduce the use of virgin materials and solid waste volumes. Postconsumer recycled content is derived from materials that can no longer be used for their original purpose, whereas pre-consumer recycled content recycled consists of raw material diverted from the waste stream during the manufacturing process. Materials with recycled content such that the post-consumer recycled content plus half of the preconsumer recycled content constitutes at least 20% by cost of the materials to be used on the project. Ensure that manufacturers are able to clearly identify and demonstrate that recycled content is pre- or post-consumer recycled content prior to entering materials in the project materials database. Building Services components shall not be included in this calculation. See LEED Credit MR 4 in the LEED Reference Guide for Core & Shell Development. MR Credit 5: Regional Materials 30% (2 points +1 Innovation in Design point)
The regional sourcing of materials is essential in minimising transportation environmental impacts, supporting the use of indigenous resources and encouraging local labour forces. At least 30% of the total value of building materials will be manufactured and harvested, extracted or recovered locally, within a radius of 800 km of the building site if transported by truck OR within a radius of 3500 km if transported by rail. Manufacture includes the final assembly of components into the building product that is installed. Building Services components shall not be included in this calculation. See LEED Credit MR 5 in the LEED Reference Guide for Core & Shell Development. MR Credit 6: Certified Wood 100% (1 point +1 Innovation in Design point)
Using FSC (Forestry Stewardship Council) certified wood encourages environmentally responsible forest management. 100% of the total value of wood-based materials and products used on the project will be certified in accordance with the FSCs Principles and Criteria. Wood-based materials and products include (but are not limited to): structural framing, general dimensional framing, flooring, doors, furnishings, and non-rented temporary construction applications such as bracing and formwork. Confirmation of the sustainable sourcing of all timber must be achieved by following the procedures of the FSC. See LEED Credit MR 6 in the LEED Reference Guide for Core & Shell Development. Although it is not necessary to include temporary timber in the calculation for the proportion of FSC-certified wood used on site, it is good practice to use temporary timber from a sustainable source or a re-used or recycled source. 4.2.3 Submittals
The following project data and calculation information is required to document Credit compliance using the LEED C&S v3.0 submittal. This shall be completed and uploaded to LEED online by the contractor. The complete Shell Attributes List that details all shell attributes including element ID and the total area of new, existing and reused elements. Material Information Sheets (examples of which are found in Appendix 7.3.1) and supporting documentation completed in full for each material used in the building.

Indoor Air Quality

IEQ Credit 3 Indoor Air Quality During Construction
IEQ Credit 3 has 2 key aims. The first is to protect the health and wellbeing of construction workers during the construction process, by maintaining an adequate level of indoor air quality. The second is to protect the health and wellbeing of building occupants by preventing the contamination of HVAC systems and building materials, particularly absorbent materials, during construction. The emphasis is on preventing indoor air quality problems resulting from the construction/renovation process in order to help sustain the comfort and wellbeing of construction workers and building occupants. 5.1.1 Meeting the requirements for IEQ Credit 3
The first step is to prepare a strategic Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Plan which addresses all of the criteria, outlining specifically how the different aspects will be addressed. The IAQ Plan must cover the construction and preoccupancy phases of the building, fulfil the following criteria: Meet or exceed the recommended control measures of the Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning National Contractors Association (SMACNA) IAQ Guidelines for Occupied nd Buildings under Construction, 2 Edition 2007, ANSI/SMACNA 008-2008 (Chapter 3). Protect stored on-site and installed absorptive materials from moisture damage. Protect all air handling systems used during the construction period from contamination. All return air systems run during construction must be fitted with MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value; Ref. ASHRAE 52.2-1999) 8 medium at each return air grille or other intake point. In addition to this, all filter media to be permanently installed must be replaced by the Contractor immediately prior to occupancy. 5.1.2 Instructions to Bidders, Indoor Air Quality During Construction
Construction methodology will meet the targets and limits described here. An Indoor Air Quality Management Plan is to be designed by the Contractor and submitted to the Designers LEED AP for approval. The Indoor Air Quality Plan is to be implemented by the Contractor and the Contractors Sub-contractors. The Indoor Air Quality Management Plan is to be drafted by the Contractor and submitted as part of the Tender Submission and/or Contract Award. This will form the basis of a live document, to be maintained throughout the construction process, which will be maintained using the supporting documentation. Supporting documentation will take the form of a completed risk assessment to be signed off by the Contractors LEED champion, to be submitted for all construction processes identified as posing a potential IAQ risk by the SMACNA IAQ
Guidelines for Occupied Buildings under Construction (2
nd
Edition 2007).
Key areas of the SMACNA IAQ Guidelines for Occupied Buildings under Construction are described below but are not limited to the following.
HVAC protection during Construction
Ductwork on site will be protected and enclosed as outlined in the job-specific requirements list at the end of this Plan. Construction employees are to keep all supply, return and exhaust ductwork free of dust, dirt, mould and air-borne contaminants. When the air distribution systems will be operating during construction, temporary filtration media will be included on all return air openings and will be checked during construction by the mechanical contractor, and replaced as necessary to ensure that they are functioning correctly. The return air ductwork will be kept clean during all construction activities by the mechanical contractor. All return air systems are to be shut down during the heaviest periods of construction to prevent dust and odors from entering the system and being released throughout the building. Filtration media will be replaced with new materials at the end of construction, prior to occupancy. MERV ratings of filters used during construction will meet LEED IAQ Credit requirements. All
20
Arup Associates
return air openings are to be covered during construction to prevent dust and debris from settling in the ductwork. The central filtration system shall be monitored and clean filters will be installed by the mechanical contractor during heavy construction. Steps are to be made to upgrade or change filters frequently to maintain air quality. Daily monitoring of filters shall be performed by the mechanical contractor during heavy construction activity. The supply side of the HVAC system is to be kept clean. Ductwork and/or insulation which contains moisture or is wet is not to be installed. Installed ductwork and/or insulation which is wet is to be removed and replaced with new. All piping, ductwork and conduit system openings are to be closed at the end of each work day. All ductwork VAV and FCU boxes while in storage are to be wrapped in plastic and covered completely. All fresh air intake louvers, openings, ductwork, etc. for indoor air handling units, perimeter louvers, exhaust openings, etc. are to be covered with plywood and plastic until ready to be operational. Openings are to be closed at end of each work day when HVAC equipment is also shut off at end of day. All condensate drain flows from mechanical equipment are to be constantly monitored for proper flow and blockage prevention. For projects with special minimum or maximum indoor humidity level requirements for proper preparation or installation environment for millwork, casework, wood finishes and furnishings, etc. project construction team will collectively plan means and methods to achieve minimum or maximum humidity levels. Source Control during Construction
A concurrent approach for maintaining construction indoor air quality is source control. This is generally the most effective type of pollution control. Sources include combustion equipment, adhesives, paints, cleaning solutions, various demolition techniques, sanding and cutting, and a wide range of other materials and techniques. All processes of this sort shall be carefully considered to establish whether an alternative process with a reduced impact on IAQ is available. This may include the following techniques: Converting from gas to electric powered equipment to limit combustion discharge into the construction site. Selection of low-solvent-emitting products, including carpet, adhesives, paints, caulks, cleaning solutions and wall coverings. Work practice Modification, for example: For some demolition tasks (e.g., paint stripping) alternative techniques may be available which produce less airborne dust. Some painting techniques release fewer odors. Some cleaning practices raise less dust. Use of hand tools may be cleaner than power tools. Use of Point-of-Source Extract: Vacuumassisted drywall sanders and concrete saws help to control dust. Direct exhausting of all contaminants out of the building and away from intakes will improve IAQ levels. An alternative method to consider is local recirculation of air by filtering out all odors and dust; all filters and extract systems are to be properly selected for the materials they will be controlling. Determination of odor control and ventilation means will be made by and at the expense of the installing subcontractor. Access control and Suitable PPE (Personal Protective Equipment): Objectionable odors created as a part of construction process such as installation of epoxy flooring, etc. will be properly identified during construction and signage will be posted to advise workers of potential hazards or PPE requirements. Pathway Interruption during Construction
21
Arup Associates
As an alternative to source controls or building evacuation, workplace air can simply be prevented from moving into occupied space. Interruption of potential contaminant pathways can be an effective control option. Key strategies for carrying this out include the following: Depressurisation of contaminated areas to prevent movement of contaminants into other areas Pressurisation of occupied areas where occupants may be at risk Erection of barriers to contain pollutants in particular construction areas Relocation of pollutant sources Temporary sealing of the building or of areas thereof.
In particular, all project equipment and material staging areas should be located away from critical air flow pathways. Mechanical rooms and air handling equipment areas will not be used as storage space for construction materials or waste. All finish materials (i.e. carpet, ceramic tile, paints, stains, etc.) are to be covered or contained prior to installation and after installation as much as possible, along with all waste material by the installing subcontractor. Housekeeping during Construction
Dust accumulation at a construction site becomes airborne dust when disturbed. Similarly, spills or excess applications of solvents will become airborne, and any waste buildup which can support the growth of mould may lead to an increased risk of occupant health problems. Dust is to be regularly cleaned up using wetting agents or sweeping compounds. All surfaces are to be kept clean, and spills and excess applications of solvent-containing products are to be cleaned up immediately. Construction waste, debris and rubbish are to be cleaned up during all phases of construction. All lunch papers, cups and other litter will be placed into trash receptacles. Food and drinks, other than drinking water, shall not be allowed in the building interior during construction. Cigarette smoking, cigar smoking or chewing tobacco will not be allowed in the building interior. Loose insulation media material installation is to be controlled and monitored by the installing subcontractor to prevent fiber discharge or particle release. Each construction entry location should have Pedi-mats or clean gravel to limit foot traffic dirt from migrating into the building. Scheduling
A final control option is to ensure that hazardous construction activity does not overlap in time with occupancy by building occupants who may be unnecessarily put at risk. This may entail waiting until detectable dust and odors or other contaminants of concern are eliminated prior to occupants entering the building or flushing the building with high volumes of outside air. It may be necessary to conduct activities with a high pollution potential during off hours. For example, if roofing emissions cannot be excluded from the building, the work might have to be performed on an evening or weekend shift. Similarly, any work which disrupts the HVAC system or introduces odor into the system should be done during unoccupied hours. Where offgassing is a major concern, work may have to be completed at the beginning of a weekend in order to allow new products time to air out sufficiently prior to occupation. 5.1.3 Submittals

7.2.1 Sample Construction Waste Management Plan
This sample construction waste management plan shows strategies for achieving MR Credit 2. _________________ Construction Co. Inc. Project Name: Project Size: (gross sq. meters) Project Type: Goals: To minimize the amount of construction waste produced on-site through a range of recycling, salvage and reuse strategies. To exceed the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) target of 75% diversion of construction waste. 1. Analysis of Expected Job-site Waste: < Summarize the general categories of waste likely to be produced on the project.> General construction debris will include: Drywall Wood Paper Cardboard Foam board Plastic Plywood Metals
2. Amounts: Rough quantities will be measured in tonnes where possible, and in cubic yards and pounds where necessary and converted to tonnes afterward. The recycling coordinator estimates a total of ______tonnes of material will be produced through our activities on this job site, and that 75% of these materials will be recycled, reused, or salvaged.
3. Removal Methods: <Outline the best method for your project or your region for getting rid of waste do-it-yourself, have the trades do it; hire a recycling depot, or a combination.> ___________Construction Co. has entered into an agreement with __________, a waste less disposal service, to provide recycling services for the duration of the project. The disposal bin is set up as the main recycling station. Drop boxes will be used for individual materials as space quantities allow. Projected savings for all debris will be around ___________. All materials will be taken to _________s recycling depot. _________, located at __________<address>_________ __. Mixed waste drop boxes will be separated by the disposal company offsite and recycled to the greatest extent possible.

At their location, the disposal company, ___________, is currently recycling 90% 100% of their intake.
4. Options for Disposal: <Mention any specific methods that are special or unusual opportunities.> Asphalt and concrete will be ground as appropriate for reuse. Dirt and gravel will be trucked to reclamation or reuse sites as appropriate for the material. Wood landscape waste will be chipped and mulched for reuse on site. All non-woody organic materials to be composted for reuse on site. Mixed dry waste, including wood, drywall, metal, cardboard, paint, and Styrofoam will all be recycled.
5. Materials Handling Procedures: <Summarize the roles of the Contractor and trades participating. Attach a site plan if possible with receptacles indicated etc.> An area will be designated for recycling and separation activities. The interior of the construction job office will also have recycling containers for paper, glass, cardboard and aluminium. Drop boxes will be used adjacent to the new building as appropriate. Labels directing the separation of materials will be posted at the construction trailer and on each of the drop boxes. Construction debris will be continually picked up during the day and placed into the proper recycling or disposal bins. The Construction Manager will instruct each Trades Supervisor and all workers as to proper waste management and recycling practice. This instruction will include hazardous wastes generated through chemical use. ______________. Construction Co. Inc. will incorporate waste reduction and recycling instructions into each Trades Contract, requiring all Trades to cooperate fully.
