I am getting lazy in my old age and looking for the easy way.

Has anyone done a conversion spreadsheet from V3 to V4?

Please share if not intellectual property.

Thanks,

Wayne

Wayne,

There's a document on the USGBC website, "Summary of Changes - LEED 2009 to LEED v4 - BD+C" Unfortunately it's not that simple to do. I'm working on new LEED v4 language now. The new USGBC requirements are vague and often unhelpful. Has anyone else started this process?

I find the LEEDuser website to be a very helpful guide. They have a specific datatbase for v4
