It is intended to facilitate the decision-making process for selection of a building site that provides opportunities for occupants to use public transit.

1.1?This specification provides requirements for demonstrating that a buildings location provides a minimal level of access to public transit such that building occupants can rely on public transit to travel to places of employment and to run typical errands. 1.2?This specification addresses a single indicator regarding the environmental performance related to a buildings location. It provides one option for evaluating whether a building is located in such a way as to minimize the impacts associated with occupants travel. Note 1:?The indicator in and of itself is insufficient to
imply any level of sustainability for the building or the
neighborhood. Similarly, a buildings failure to meet this
specification does not necessarily signify a lack of
sustainability. Other indicators may be more appropriate for that
building or region; those indicators are outside the scope of this
specification.
1.3?The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.4?This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.5?This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. |
