In addition, more than 350 sections have incorporated additional information into the Evaluations as well as optional provisions into the Section Text for specifying requirements for LEED prerequisites and credits most directly affected by specifications. ARCOM will continue to issue new, update, and revision sections that incorporate LEED discussions.
Can I license just the LEED or environmental information?
Yes. The best way to get all the information you need in one handy reference is to purchase ARCOM’s LEED Book/CD, Specifying LEED Requirements.
What is the MASTERSPEC LEED book/CD? What does it offer beyond what is in my MASTERSPEC Library?
Specifying LEED Requirements is a 600+-page book with a companion CD that simplifies preparation of LEED specifications using a single, handy reference. The package sells for $290 (list price), but is discounted for current MASTERSPEC users ($145) and for Small Project users ($225).
The book/CD contains the same three, full-length Division 1 sections needed for LEED certification that appear in MASTERSPEC’s full-length Architectural / Structural / Civil library. However, Specifying LEED Requirements offers a convenient, single resource for LEED specification preparation.
