In the LEED Reference Guide version 2.0, Environmental Quality credit 8.2, I am having the worst time understanding the words found on page 269 where it says: "Views are required for at least 90% of all regularly occupied rooms." It says on the same page: "If the view is greater than or equal to 90% of the room area, then the square footage of the entire room is applicable to the credit." Both these sentences lead me to believe that Credit 8.2 is referring to 90% of the floor area of all occupied rooms having the view instead of 90% of the occupied room count having a view to the exterior. If the floor area is what it refers to then one of the rooms could have 60% of its floor area with a view and another 95% and so on as long as the average for all occupied rooms is 90%. Is that what the credit is striving for?
