This is the engineering system that is most effected in IEQ Credit 6.1.
What is artificial lighting?
100
This is what IEQ Credit 7.1 attempts to provide in order to promote occupant activity and well-being.
What is a comfortable thermal environment?
100
These 2 architectural qualities of a space are the main areas of concern for IEQ Credit 8.
What are daylight and views?
100
This Prerequisite ensures that teachers and students can hear and understand each other easily in the classroom.
What is IEQ Prerequisite 3: Minimal Acoustical Performance (schools)?
100
The intent of IEQ Credit 10 is to reduce the potential presence of this in schools through preventive design and construction measures.
What is mold?
200
This percentage of occupants must be provided with individual lighting controls in IEQ Credit 6.1.
What is 90%
200
Taking IEQ Credit 7.1 a step further, IEQ Credit 7.2 attempts to provide assessment of this for the building's occupants.
What is thermal comfort?
200
For NC and CS, this is the percentage of regularly occupied spaces that must have daylight to score one point. Schools require this percentage as well, but may also have 90% for two points.
What is 75% ?
200
As per IEQ Credit 9, this is the maximum amount (in dBA) of noise that is allowed by an HVAC system in all core learning spaces.
What is 40 dBA?
200
This percentage is what the relative humidity should be maintained under to prevent mold.
What is 60%?
300
This percentage of building occupants must be provided with comfort controls in IEQ Credit 6.2.
What is 50%?
300
This is the amount of time after a building has been occupied that a thermal comfort survey may be conducted.
What is 6 - 8 months?
300
This is the minimum amount of light in a space (in footcandles) required to be considered as "adequate daylight".
What is 25 foot candles? The maximum is 500 fc.
300
IEQ Credit 9 goes beyond IEQ Prerequisite 3 and includes this proactive strategy.
What are lowering background noise and the general STC rating of all materials?
300
This is caused by the temperature of a surface being cooled below the dew point of the air in contact with it and can lead to mold.
What is condensation?
400
This is the total number of individual lighting controls that must be installed in a open office area with 30 cubicles.
What is 27?
400
This type of project is ineligible for IEQ Credit 7.2.
What is Residential?
400
This is the percentage of regularly occupied spaces that must have views to the exterior to fulfill the requirements of IEQ Credit 8.2.
What is 90%?
400
As per IEQ Prerequisite 3, this is the maximum amount (in dBA) of noise that is allowed by an HVAC system in all core learning spaces.
What is 45 dBA?
400
These 3 IEQ Credits are required to achieve IEQ Credit 10.
What are credits 3.1- Construction Indoor Air Quality Management Plan, During Construction, 7.1 - Thermal Comfort, Design, and 7.2 - Thermal Comfort, Verification.
500
If an office work area has 40 cubicles with 20 of them located within 20 feet inside and 10 feet to either side of an operable window complying with ASHRAE 62.1 - 2007, this is the number of individual comfort controls required to gain IEQ Credit 6.2.
What is one?
500
Out of the 4 Time Line / Team groups, this is where IEQ Credit 7 falls.
What is Time Line / Team 4 - Occupancy?
500
In a top-lighting daylight scheme, skylights must cover the roof area between these two percentages (minimum and maximum), and the distance between skylights must not exceed 1.4 times the ceiling height.
What is between 3% and 6%?
500
This is the maximum size (in cubic feet) that a room may have before it is considered a "large core learning space" and is subject to additional reverberation time requirements per ANSI S12.60-2002.
What is 19,999.99 cubic feet?
500
These maintenance issues may also cause excess moisture within the building envelope, facilitating mold growth.
