Alply LEED Rating ■■
The following narrative is designed to explain how Alply insulated metal panels may contribute to the prerequisites and credits that determine a projects overall LEEDⓇ rating.
EA Prerequisite 2: Minimum Energy Performance - Required
Alply insulated panels will contribute towards the required 10% improvement in energy efficiency of a building when compared with the baseline building performance rating as calculated according to Appendix G of ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2007 (with errata but without addenda).
EA Credit 1: Optimize Energy Performance
Alply insulated panels used in the design and construction of the building envelope will help increase the overall energy performance of the building and directly contribute to the overall points earned by the building from the energy cost saving percentage, as compared with the baseline building performance calculated in according to Appendix G of ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2007.
MR Credit 4: Recycled Content (1 or 2 Points)
Alply insulated metal wall panels whether fabricated using aluminum or steel skins are made from a high percentage of recycled material.
Alply insulated metal wall panels, made with aluminum face skins contain a total recycled content of 74.9%. Of this, post-consumer recycled content is equal to 34.5% and pre-consumer content is equal to 40.4%.
Steel face skins on Alply insulated metal wall panels contain a total recycled content of 32%. Of this, post-consumer recycled content is 25% and post-industrial recycled content is equal to 7%.
The percentages of recycled content are such that the sum of post-consumer recycled content plus one-half of the pre-consumer content will meet or exceed the threshold of 10% recycled content (by value) for materials in the case of a steel panel and 20% recycled content (by value) for materials in the case of an aluminum insulated panel.
An Alply generated assembly calculation form that is project specific for LEED MR Credit 4 can be made available on request.
Sustainability
Alply is committed to best practices to help protect the environment. All scrap metal and production cutoffs generated at Alply are carefully sorted and disposed of for recycling and all Alply panel systems qualify for LEED accreditation.
