Actual exam question for US Green Building Council's LEED-AP-BD+C exam
Question #: 1
Topic #: 10
[All LEED-AP-BD+C Questions]

Which of the following Materials and Resources credits or prerequisites is reviewed under the design phase documentation submission?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

During the design phase documentation submission, the Materials and Resources (MR) Credit: Building Product Disclosure and Optimization - Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) is reviewed. This credit encourages project teams to select products from manufacturers who provide transparency about their products' environmental impacts. EPDs are often part of the design documentation, as they influence material selection and project sustainability goals. Other PBT source reduction credits or raw material sourcing credits are typically more relevant in later phases, as they may involve construction processes and materials procurement rather than initial design specifications.

Haha, this exam is really testing our knowledge of obscure LEED credits! I bet the answer is something completely unexpected, like 'All of the above'.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Maybe A or B? PBT Source Reduction seems like it could be reviewed in the design phase. Tough choice!
