<DIV><SPAN class=452012119-30042009><FONT face=Univers size=2>I assume that
neither ASHRAE 90.1 ECB or Appendix G allow you to take credit for shading due
to surrounding buildings. Can anyone provide a specific reference to the
code or LEED Reference Guide where that is stated? I understand the
rationale for a single building, but if I'm working on a campus with single
ownership and the buildings have a 30 year contract to be owned and operated, I
feel like I should be allowed to take a credit for reducing the solar heat gains
due to adjacent buildings. Any thoughts?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
