Hi David,



I am quite confused about the LCA you mentioned.



Is it the

·         Life cycle cost analysis?   OR

·         Life-cycle assessment mentioned in LEED v4 as *Materials
resources credit- Building lifecycle impact reduction.?*





If it’s the second one, is it acceptable for LEED v4 compliance.



Thanks

Tejas
