This is the correct order of the LEED certification process for most projects1. The first step is to register the project on LEED Online and pay the registration fee2. The second step is to prepare the application by collecting and uploading the required information and documents according to the chosen rating system and credits2. The third step is to submit the application and pay the certification fee2. The fourth step is to undergo the application review by a LEED accredited third party, which may request clarifications or corrections2. The final step is to receive the certification decision and the LEED plaque and certificate2.

Life-cycle cost analysts of a new construction includes consideration of

cost of purchasing window glazing

cost of adding accessible parking

cost of challenging a real estate tax assessment

cost of subsidizing the use of public transportation

Answer: A

Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is a method for assessing the total cost of owning a facility or running a project. It considers all the costs associated with obtaining, owning, and disposing of an investment1. The cost of purchasing window glazing is one of the initial costs that affects the energy performance and thermal comfort of a building2. Therefore, it is included in the LCCA of a new construction.

An existing LEED certified building located on a college campus is eligible for LEED for Building Operations and Maintenance; Existing Buildings (LEED O+M: EB). This rating system applies to existing buildings that are undergoing improvement work or little to no construction. It focuses on measuring and improving the performance of building operations and maintenance practices in areas such as energy efficiency, water conservation, waste management, indoor environmental quality, transportation, and occupant satisfaction. To be eligible for LEED O+M: EB, a project must meet certain minimum program requirements (MPRs), such as having a reasonable site boundary, being in a permanent location on existing land, being fully operational and occupied for at least one year prior to certification application, and complying with environmental laws and regulations. References: LEED certification for existing buildings and spaces6; Maintaining certification7; LEED v4: Building Operations + Maintenance Guide4

In the context of a LEED project, the charrette is a meeting of stakeholders, project team members and others to establish project objectives. The charrette is a collaborative and participatory process that involves brainstorming, discussing, and generating ideas and solutions for the project’s sustainability goals, design strategies, performance targets, and evaluation methods. The charrette is usually held at the early stages of the project to ensure alignment and integration among all parties involved. The LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook states that one of the steps in the integrative process is to “conduct a preliminary LEED assessment with key project team members, including owner” [1, p. 12]. References: LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook, [Charrette | Whole Building Design Guide]
