Modeling Energy Performance of Concrete Buildings for LEED-NC Version 2.2: Energy and Atmosphere Credit 1
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System is a family of voluntary rating systems for designing, constructing, operating, and certifying green buildings.
LEED is administered by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC)—a coalition of individuals and groups from across the building industry working to promote buildings that are environmentally responsible, profitable, and healthy places to live and work. This project is based on version 2.2 of LEED for new construction and major renovation (LEED-NC).
