Use these instructions as guide to filling out the LEED Online credit form for LEED-NC 2009 IEQc6.2: Controllability of Systems—Thermal Comfort. The images of the LEED Online credit forms shown here are samples from a "dummy" project, and are filled out to illustrate how to proceed—not necessarily with complete data, or data representing a real project. Please use this simply as a guide to the types of information you will need for this form.

Images of LEED Online credit forms are used here with the permission of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).

NOTE: Since this guidance was posted by LEEDuser in 2009, USGBC has made some changes to the IEQc6.2 credit form. We'll keep this version posted for projects that are using the older version of the form—other projects should pick and choose which parts of the following guidance to use.

1.) Determine if you will pursue the Streamlined or the Full documentation path.

A streamlined path only requires a signature from the licensed professional confirming credit compliance. If you choose the streamlined path, the remaining steps do not apply.

2.) If pursuing the Full documentation path...

No Longer Accurate...

This step by step feature is really neat, but unfortunately the template layout has changed signifcantly since this was done. The LPE option no longer exists at all. Individually occupied spacesOccupied Spaces are defined as enclosed spaces that can accommodate human activities. Occupied spaces are further classified as regularly occupied or non-regularly occupied spaces based on the duration of the occupancy, individual or multi-occupant based on the quantity of occupants, and densely or non-densely occupied spaces based upon the concentration of occupants in the space. and group shared spaces have separate tables, and the tables look completely different.

Dewain, thanks for the reminder about this. We'll remind people of that through a note at the top.

You asked for suggested future credits.

Please consider MRc3, MRc4, MRc5, MRc6, and MRc7.
This could be daunting but you will get 5 credits for vertually one template.

I agree the step by step approach with screen shots is helpful.

Excellent guidance

I have to say that this type of information, that is, actually seeing what is expected to be filled in on the forms, is the most helpful information I've seen in a long time. And, before I had a project actually registered, the notion of documentation was always this daunting thing out there. For anyone who hasn't had the opportunity to work on a real project, this is fantastic to see.

IEQ Credit 6.2

This step by step presentation representing the actual templates is fantastic. What is your timeframe for doing more of these, and what credit order do you anticipate? In the meantime, is there any possibility that you can post images of the credits as they appear on LEED Online or advise where one can find these (vs. the older versions that the GBCI offers? I see that these are courtesy of USGBC- I would think it is in the interest of the USGBC to raise the veil and make these accessible.

You are a great resource. Thanks.

John

Hi John, we are planning on rolling out a few of these as a pilot over the next couple months.

Any requests on credits?

USGBC is not currently posting images or "sample templates" showing how the credits appear on LEED Online. You have to have a registered project to see those on LEED Online—can't help there, as much as we would like to.
