Answer 1

1. Some specific passive solar building orientation practices that can earn LEED credit include: - Building orientation to maximize solar gain during winter months - Placement of windows on the south-facing side of the building - Use of overhangs or shading devices to control summer sun gain2. When choosing a location to obtain maximum LEED credit, sensitive lands that should be avoided include: - Floodplains - Wetlands - Steep slopes - Areas with high conservation value3. Basic landscape/olite design practices to obtain LEED credits include: - Using native plants and low-water-use landscaping - Implementing rain gardens and permeable pavements - Incorporating green roofs and walls - Minimizing impervious surfaces4. For single-family homes, fixtures that should be specified to gain LEED credit for efficient indoor water use include: - Low-flow showerheads and faucets - Dual-flush toilets - Water-efficient washing machines and dishwashers5. The characteristics of windows, skylights, and doors that affect the number of LEED credits obtained for energy efficiency include: - Window orientation and shading - Window and door efficiency ratings (e.g., U-factor, R-value) - Glazing types and thickness - Air infiltration and sealing6. For single-family homes, high-efficiency appliances that should be specified to earn LEED credit for energy efficiency include: - ENERGY STAR certified appliances - Appliances with high Energy Efficiency Ratings (EER) or Energy Use Ratings (EUR)7. Wall studs, joists, and rafters should be placed at 16-inch on-center spacing to earn LEED credit for energy efficiency. This spacing provides adequate insulation and reduces thermal bridging, which can improve the building's overall energy performance.8. The baseline waste allowance for a two-bedroom home is typically around 4,000 to 6,000 pounds of waste per year. This represents the volume of concrete, as well as the volume of tree limbs and stumps that can be generated during the construction process. A typical residential construction dumpster (8' x 3.5' x 20') can hold approximately 20 cubic yards of waste material, which is equivalent to around 1,600 to 2,400 pounds of waste.
