Core and Shell

For LEED BD+C: Core and Shell projects, complete commissioning for systems within the core and shell scope of work. Follow all BD+C: New Construction requirements with the following guidance.

SCOPE OF WORK

The commissioning scope of work for a Core and Shell project varies depending on the energy and water-using systems included in the design. For example, a project may consist of base building systems, like air-source heat pumps and central air handling units. Alternatively, the developer may limit the scope of work and provide a cold shell with no central HVAC equipment and minimal levels of lighting. Per the project scope, the CxP must verify and test systems.
