by jbs070610b3 — July 12, 2010—The Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC) has announced approval of the SMaRT Consensus Standard for Certified Sustainable Products.
The Credit Interpretation Request (CIR) ruling allows the use of SMaRT building materials to achieve an IDc1 point in the LEED Canada NC 1.0 rating system.
This LEED Canada CIR is modeled after the SMaRT LEED CIR of the U.S. Green Building Council. The approval facilitates green building certification in Canada.
