DESIGN REVIEW FOR CORE AND SHELL PROJECTS

During the design reviews, include review comments on LEED BD+C: Core and Shell systems and how any incomplete system can meet ASHRAE Standard 90.1 requirements for tenant fitouts. This includes both energy efficiency measures and tenant metering requirements.

FINAL COMMISSIONING REPORT

Along with the required elements listed in the Final Commissioning Report section above, identify and defer any tests until base building systems connect with future tenant equipment (e.g., a central VAV air handling unit with controls testing that must be deferred until after installing tenant VAV terminal equipment).

TENANT GUIDELINES FOR COMMISSIONING

IPp4: Tenant Guidelines allow owners to inform all tenants of the building’s sustainable design and construction features. Project teams are encouraged to include a section on commissioning addressing any interconnection between base building and tenant-installed systems.
