Sounds of Silence: Acoustic Performance in LEED v4.1
Elixir Environmental works with building product manufacturers to develop transparency documentation for material ingredient reporting, including Health Product Declarations (HPD). HPDs help contribute points under LEED v4. Product declarations offer your customers an unsurpassed level of transparency, can validate claims of your product's contents, and increase the chances of your building product getting specified.
Noise can negatively affect human health and productivity in the workplace. Poor acoustic performance can critically affect learning in schools and impact healing at healthcare facilities. It is imperative that design professionals balance acoustical design strategies when planning systems and indoor spaces. In this presentation, we discuss the intent and requirements for the LEED v4.1 BD+C and ID+C Credit: Acoustic Performance and how they can help building occupants.
