  3. rationale Supports for having • GSA Moon Shot: • Zero Environmental Footprint • Green Purchasing Plan • Executive Order 13514 standards Benefits • Health of building occupants • Quality of our workspaces • Durability of finishes why make standards?

  4. 2010 NSF/ANSI 140 Sustainability Standard carpet • Gold level 3rd-party certification req. • Voluntary, and consensus-based • ANSI-Approved specification ASTM D-5252 Hexapod Drum Test • Texture Appearance Retention Rating • Durability standard first standard developed

  5. multi NSF International attribute • Non-profit, non-government • Robust sustainability standards focus on total life cycle of product • Corporate environmental and social responsibility • Decreases need for multiple label certifications standards what is NSF?

  6. multi attribute standards life cycle of product

  7. Non-profits, government, and standards A/E firms and consultants Vendors and industry representatives THE PROCESS

  8. balance Sustainability Durability Cost Availability seek NSF Standards whenever available Open, consensus-based, standards Governmental regulations avoid Contradicting LEED Proprietary certification standards Unrealistic requirements goals when developing

  9. low emitting materials sustainable content performance requirement take back programs wallcovering product attributes

  10. paints and coatings resilient flooring ceiling systems wall covering product attribute matrix

  11. paints and coatings resilient flooring suspended ceiling systems wallcovering THE STANDARDS

  12. Paints and Coatings paints SCAQMD Rule 1113 and • Must meet VOC limits after colorant has been added starting: • January 1, 2012 • Referenced by ASHRAE 189.1 coatings

  13. low Standard Method V 1.1 emitting • California Dept of Public Health • Chamber test of VOC emissions • 4 samples | 4 days of testing • 10 days of conditioning • AKA: Section 01350 materials Referenced by product attributes

  14. environ- mentally Recycled & Biobased Content sustainable • Minimum levels using any combination: • Pre-consumer recycled content, • Post-consumer recycled content, or • Biobased content content Wood products in ceiling systems must be from a FSC-Certified forest product attributes

  15. Resilient Flooring NSF/ANSI 332 resilient • Sustainability Assessment for Resilient Flooring Products • Must achieve “Conformant” level 3rd party certification starting: • January 1, 2013 flooring ASTM Standards • Specific per product type: • ASTM F1066 VCT • ASTM F1303 Sheet Vinyl • ASTM F1700 Vinyl Tile • ASTM F1859 Rubber Sheet • ASTM F1344 Rubber Tile • ASTM F2034 Linoleum Sheet • ASTM F2195 Linoleum Tile • ASTM F1861 Wall Base • ASTM F2169 Stair Treads 5%

  16. Wall Covering NSF/ANSI 342 wall • Sustainability Assessment for Wallcovering Products • Must achieve “Conformant” level 3rd party certification starting: • January 1, 2013 covering W-101 • Standard for Polymer Coated Fabric Wallcovering • Must meet Type II performance 5%

  17. Suspended Ceiling Systems Light Reflectance suspended ceiling • Must have a minimum LR of 0.80 • IESNA recommends LR of 0.90 for areas near windows or where indirect light is used • More natural light • Fewer fixtures • Greater savings systems 50%

  18. Suspended Ceiling Systems Acoustics suspended ceiling • Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) • Minimum 0.65 for closed spaces • Minimum 0.75 for open-plan spaces • Ceiling Attenuation Class (CAC) • Minimum of 35 for closed spaces systems 50%

  19. Suspended Ceiling Systems Take-Back Program suspended ceiling Whenever replacing a ceiling system, acoustic tiles and grid must be recycled through a take-back program. systems 50%
