Quality of Construction Materials and Waste
601.7:
Site-applied finishing materials
(2 - 5 points)
|
Building
materials or assemblies are utilized that do not require
additional site-applied material for finishing.
90%
or more of the installed building material or assembly
listed in the Standard (5 points each)
50%
to less then 90% of the installed building material
or assembly listed in the Standard (2 points each)

Enhanced Durability and Reduced Maintenance
602.8:
Termite-resistant Materials
(2 - 6 points)
|
Use
termite-resistant materials for the foundation, all structural
walls, floors, concealed roof spaces not accessible for
inspection, exterior decks and exterior claddings in geographic
areas of slight to moderate, moderate to heavy or very
heavy termite infestation probability. Higher points are
awarded in areas of very heavy termite infestation probability. |

604:
Recycled-Content Building Materials
604.1:
Recycled-Content
(1 - 6 points)
|
Building
materials with recycled content are used for two minor
and/or two major components of the building. Points are
awarded based on the percentage of recycled content (25%
to more than 75%) and whether used on major or minor component. |
|
606:
Renewable Materials
606.3:
Manufacturing Energy
(2 - 6 points)
|
Materials
are used for major components of the building that are
manufactured using a minimum of 33% of the primary manufacturing
process energy derived from renewable sources, combustible
waste sources, or renewable energy credits (RECs). (2
points per material) |
|
608:
Indigenous Materials
608.1:
Indigenous Materials
(2 - 10 points)
|
Indigenous
materials are used for major elements of the building.
(2 points per type of material - maximum of 10 points) |
|
609:
Life Cycle Analysis
609.1:
Life Cycle Analysis
(3 - 15 points)
|
A
more environmentally preferable product or assembly
is selected for an application based upon the use of
a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool compliant with ISO
14044 or other recognized standards that compares the
environmental impact of building materials, assemblies,
or a whole building.
Per
product/system comparison (3 points - maximum of
15 points)
Whole building LCA Analysis (15 points)

610:
Innovative Practices
610.1:
Manufacturer's environmental management system
concepts
(1 - 10 points)
|
Product
manufacturer's operation and business practices include
environmental management system concepts and the production
facility is ISO 1400 certified or equivalent. The aggregate
value of building products from ISO 14001 certified or
equivalent production facilities is 1% or more of the
estimated total building materials cost. (1 point per
percent) |

702:
Performance Path
702.2:
Energy cost performance levels
(30 - 120 points)
|
Energy
efficiency features are implemented to achieve energy
cost performance that exceeds the ICC IECC by 15 - 60%.
(A documented analysis using software in accordance
with ICC IECC, Section 404, or ICC IEC Section 506.2
through 506.5, applied as defined in the ICC IECC, is
required.)
Insulated
vinyl siding may contribute to points in this area.

703
Prescriptive Path
703.1:
Building Envelope
(10 - 36 points)
|
Total
building thermal envelope UA improved by 10 - 20%
over that required by IECC.
Insulated
vinyl siding may contribute to this practice.
