LEED-AP-ID+C Exam Dumps : LEED AP Interior Design + Construction (LEED AP ID+C) V4

Innovation Credit, Innovation, Option 3: Additional Strategies allows for the pursuit of exemplary performance in an existing LEED v4 prerequisite or credit that allows for such performance. In this case, achieving exemplary performance in the Indoor Environmental Quality Credit for Acoustic Performance can provide the additional point needed for LEED Platinum certification. This would involve surpassing the standard requirements for acoustic performance, thereby contributing to a superior indoor environment1.

Reusing existing materials from another building, like the raised flooring in this case, contributes to the LEED goal of reducing the demand for virgin materials and minimizing environmental impact. This reuse can be considered as part of the Building Life Cycle Impact Reduction credit, which falls under the umbrella of Materials and Resources credits. Specifically, Option 3 of this credit deals with building and material reuse. By refurbishing and reinstalling an existing raised floor, the tenant's actions demonstrate leadership in extraction practices because they are extending the lifecycle of existing materials, thereby reducing the need for new materials and the environmental burden associated with material extraction and processing.

For LEED Indoor Environmental Quality Credit concerning Interior Lighting, Option 1, the requirement is for 90% of building occupants to have individual lighting controls. Given that the tenant space includes 100 workstations and 10 enclosed offices intended for individual use, this means that a total of 110 workspaces require lighting control. To achieve one point, at least 90% of these occupants must have control over the lighting in their space. Therefore, the minimum number of occupants that would need individual lightingcontrols is 90% of 110, which calculates to 99 occupants (rounded down). However, as individual controls cannot be split between occupants, the actual minimum number would be 99 occupants. Option B is the closest answer to 99 without going under the required percentage.
