What is the minimum size requirement for LEED BD+C and O+M projects?

  1. 500 square feet

  2. 750 square feet

  3. 1000 square feet

  4. 1500 square feet

The correct answer is: 1000 square feet

The minimum size requirement for LEED BD+C (Building Design and Construction) and O+M (Operations and Maintenance) projects is 1,000 square feet. This threshold is established to ensure that the projects being evaluated for LEED certification have a sufficient scale of operations to significantly impact sustainability metrics and performance. Choosing a minimum size helps to focus LEED certification efforts on projects that can demonstrate meaningful contributions to energy efficiency, water conservation, resource management, and overall environmental impacts. Smaller projects may not have the same capacity to implement comprehensive sustainability strategies that larger projects can. Thus, the 1,000 square feet requirement ensures that all projects pursuing certification are capable of adopting and demonstrating sustainable practices at a level that contributes substantially to the goals of the LEED program.
