Evaluation of Green Project Rating System for New Construction Projects
Over the past ten years the LEED rating system has been continuously focused on the various research domains in order to address the sustainability issues in built environments in the United States and other countries. LEED credit weighting provides a logical and rational approach to producing numerical scores in each category. Though it was developed in an extensive collaborative process, there has been controversy over the credit weightings system. The allocation of credit weightings still leaves much room for consideration due to the arbitrary decisions based on the developers' judgment. Thus, this paper attempts to address the sensitivity and reliability of the optional credit weights among six categories. We conducted two experimental designs using point-by-point data for 43 LEED projects certified under LEED-NC version 2.0 series. The findings from this study will provide the LEED project teams with insight into credit implementation in the predesign stage of potential LEED projects.
