The LEED v4.1 evolution for the design and construction of full buildings focuses on accessibility, the most current standards and real-world project experiences. This rating system is for buildings that are new construction or major renovations. At least 60% of the project’s gross floor area must be complete by the time of certification (except for LEED BD+C: Core and Shell). You must include the entire building’s gross floor area in the project.

LEED v4.1 presents a new approach to residential projects, that pulls the most relevant language from the BD+C and all residential focused rating systems and merges it with the priorities of the residential market. With the release of the new multifamily options in LEED v4.1, Residential BD+C becomes the required rating system for all single family and multifamily projects. Residential projects using LEED v4.1 may not use LEED BD+C.

The first step in launching LEED v4.1 included a version of the LEED rating system for existing buildings. This rating system is for buildings that are fully operational and occupied for at least one year. The project may be undergoing improvement work or little to no construction. Must include the entire building’s gross floor area in the project.
