US Green Building Council Exam LEED-AP-BD+C Topic 5 Question 2 Discussion

Actual exam question for US Green Building Council's LEED-AP-BD+C exam
Question #: 2
Topic #: 5
[All LEED-AP-BD+C Questions]

Smoking is prohibited inside LEED-certified buildings in order to eliminate the health risks associated with environmental tobacco smoke. Which building type is exempt from this requirement?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

In LEED-certified projects, residential buildings (D) are the exception to the rule prohibiting smoking inside buildings. For residential projects, the standard is modified to require designated smoking areas with special ventilation or separation rather than a complete ban, as smoking regulations in residential settings often involve tenant rights and are treated differently than commercial or institutional buildings. LEED requires that precautions be taken to control environmental tobacco smoke migration in multifamily residential projects to protect air quality in common areas.

Haha, A) Office projects? More like 'Smoker's Paradise' if you ask me. Those poor office workers need their nicotine breaks to survive the cubicle life.

C) Warehouse projects, hands down. I bet the warehouse workers need a smoke break to keep their sanity while stacking boxes all day.

I see your point, but I still think it's D) Residential projects because people live there and should be protected from secondhand smoke.

I'm going with B) Healthcare projects. After all, those patients need their nicotine fix to cope with the stress of being in the hospital, right?

Definitely D) Residential projects. I mean, who wants to ban smoking in our homes? That's just crazy!

I agree, banning smoking in our own homes seems a bit extreme.
