LEED-AP-ID+C Exam Dumps : LEED AP Interior Design + Construction (LEED AP ID+C) V4

Integrated decision-making involves the collaborative effort of various stakeholders in a project, from its conception through completion, to ensure the building's design serves its intended purpose effectively. In the context of placing circulation near the office perimeter next to the window wall, integrated decision-making would mean making design choices that enhance the building's performance and occupant comfort. Option A, installing blinds to increase occupant comfort, would address issues such as glare and thermal gains from the sun, which directly impact the occupants' comfort and the building's heating and cooling loads. This decision would emerge from the iterative process of identifying the unique needs and challenges of the project and making early design decisions that benefit the project both in execution and operation.

A LEED project located within a LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED-ND) certified boundary is eligible for points under the Location and Transportation Credit, LEED for Neighborhood Development Location. If the development is certified at the Silver level, the project automatically earns 10 points. In addition to these points, the project can earn up to 8 more points in the Location and Transportation category for implementing strategies such as reducing parking footprint, promoting alternative transportation, and connecting with amenities1.

For LEED Indoor Environmental Quality Credit concerning Interior Lighting, Option 1, the requirement is for 90% of building occupants to have individual lighting controls. Given that the tenant space includes 100 workstations and 10 enclosed offices intended for individual use, this means that a total of 110 workspaces require lighting control. To achieve one point, at least 90% of these occupants must have control over the lighting in their space. Therefore, the minimum number of occupants that would need individual lightingcontrols is 90% of 110, which calculates to 99 occupants (rounded down). However, as individual controls cannot be split between occupants, the actual minimum number would be 99 occupants. Option B is the closest answer to 99 without going under the required percentage.
