Inquiry
The University is building a married student housing project that consists of a series of three story buildings. Each student housing unit is 1-3 bedrooms in size. All units are naturally ventilated with operable windows. There is no mechanical ventilation or ductwork that connects different units. All units have exterior doors. There are no interior corridors connecting the units. To comply with the LEED smoking prerequisite, we are following the CIR from 12/3/2003, option 2. Smoking will be prohibited in all common areas of the housing complex. No exterior smoking areas are being designated on project. Exterior doors on each unit are weather stripped, but there are no common hallways connecting doors from one unit to another. The ASTM standard outlined in part c of the 12/3/2003, option 2 CIR seems inappropriate to assess ETS transfer because the units do not share interior corridors. What should this project do/submit to show compliance with this prerequisite?
