Thanks Gail very much for the notification,
And thanks to whomever was responsible for convincing USGBC to amend the
process. Seems like just a month ago I was railing on about this very
topic; now I'm out of excuses for not drafting up an ASHRAE 90.1
Appendix G amendment to address shortcomings in the baseline building
rotation exercise.

Dear Fellow Energy modelers,
The following posting has been placed on the USGBC website (
http://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.aspx?DocumentID=2664
<http://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.aspx?DocumentID=2664> ), which allows the
use of ASHRAE Addenda for all credits referencing ASHRAE standards.
Use of approved Addenda for ASHRAE Standards referenced in LEED
Background:
ASHRAE currently publishes Continuous Maintenance standards
every three years,
with a Supplement published eighteen months after the Standard
is published. In rare
cases, addenda are published in between the eighteen-month
periods. LEED
development and ASHRAE standards development are not aligned and
many addenda
have been approved that would be useful for LEED project teams.
Action:
LEED project teams are required to use the ASHRAE Standard
referenced in the
applicable Reference Guide and are permitted to use addenda
within the most recent
Supplement to that Standard, as well as any approved addenda
published in between the
eighteen-month periods. Project teams are responsible for
notifying LEED reviewers of
the use of ASHRAE addenda utilized at the time of project
documentation submission.
If a project team elects to use an addendum to an ASHRAE
Standard, this addendum
must be applied to the entire LEED submittal.
This should make fenestration modeling much easier for the Baseline Case
for projects opting to follow the Addendum.
Best Regards,
Gail Stranske
