質問 # 55
What green building objective does utilizing high efficiency water fixtures achieve?
- A. Preventing stormwater pollution
- B. Conserving the Earth's potable water supply
- C. Utilizing more unused graywater for flushing water closets
- D. Providing adequate watering for indigenous plants
正解：B
解説：
Explanation
Conserving the Earth's potable water supply is a green building objective that can be achieved by utilizing high efficiency water fixtures. High efficiency water fixtures reduce the amount of water used for indoor plumbing, which reduces the demand on municipal water supply and wastewater systems. This also saves energy and money for the building owners and occupants. The LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook states that one of the intents of the Water Efficiency category is to "reduce potable water use within buildings and for landscape irrigation" [1, p. 13].

質問 # 56
The water use reduction for a project is determined by finding the difference between the baseline conditions and the
- A. permitted maximum water usage
- B. calculated installed case
- C. project occupancy type
- D. local water usage rate
正解：B
解説：
Explanation
The water use reduction for a project is determined by finding the difference between the baseline conditions and the calculated installed case. The baseline conditions are the water use of the project if it were designed to meet the minimum requirements of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 or a local equivalent, whichever is more stringent. The calculated installed case is the water use of the project based on the actual fixtures and fittings installed or specified. The water use reduction is calculated as a percentage of savings from the baseline conditions. The LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook states that one of the strategies for achieving water efficiency is to "calculate water usereduction by comparing a building project's water use with the water use baseline calculated for the building after meeting the Energy Policy Act of 1992 fixture performance requirements" [1, p. 14].

質問 # 60
A salvaged wood door from another site qualifies under what Materials and Resources sustainable criteria?
- A. Bio-based materials
- B. Waste diversion
- C. Materials reuse
- D. Certified wood
正解：C
解説：
Explanation
A salvaged wood door from another site qualifies under the Materials and Resources sustainable criteria of materials reuse. Materials reuse is the practice of using existing materials or products for new purposes without altering their form or composition. Materials reuse reduces the demand for virgin materials, saves energy and resources, and prevents waste generation. The other options are not applicable to a salvaged wood door from another site. Certified wood is wood that has been harvested from forests that are managed in an environmentally responsible, socially beneficial, and economically viable manner according to the standards of an accredited certification system such as the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). Bio-based materials are materials that are derived from plants or animals, such as bamboo, cork, wool, or cotton. Waste diversion is the practice of diverting waste from landfills or incinerators by recycling, reusing, salvaging, or donating materials. References: LEED Green Associate Candidate Handbook, page 28; USGBC, [Materials and Resources], page 4.
