Exam LEED-AP-BD-C Topic 7 Question 186 Discussion

Actual exam question for USGBC's LEED-AP-BD-C exam
Question #: 186
Topic #: 7
A project in a cold climate does not want a highly reflective roof because they want the heat absorption. How can this project comply with Sustainable Sites Credit, Heat Island Reduction?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

The credit may be achieved by using nonroof measures only, such as shading, paving, and vegetation, to reduce the heat island effect on the site. The credit does not require a highly reflective roof for all projects, but allows for flexibility and trade-offs depending on the climate and design conditions. The project can use the Heat Island Reduction 1 to demonstrate compliance with the credit requirements. The credit is feasible and applicable for this project, and does not need an alternative compliance path.
