1、Designation: E2129 18Standard Practice forData Collection for Sustainability Assessment of BuildingProducts1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2129; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last
2、 revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a set of instructions for collectingdata to be used in assessing the sustainability of buildingproduc
3、ts for use in both commercial and residential buildings.1.1.1 There are many features of a building that contributeto sustainability; one of them is the selection of products foruse in a building. Other key features influencing sustainabilityinclude, but are not limited to: overall efficiency of the
4、 designof the building, the impact the building has on the habits of theoccupants, and the impact the building has on the microclimateand macroclimate. This practice addresses sustainability issuesrelated to building products. This practice does not addresssustainability issues related to overall bu
5、ilding design, siteselection, building operations, or other features influencingsustainability.1.1.2 While it is recommended that users rely on profes-sional judgment informed by both environmental expertise andspecific knowledge of the intended use of the product, thispractice provides no instructi
6、on as to interpretation of the dataobtained. Interpretation of the data obtained is the responsibil-ity of the user of this practice.1.1.3 This document cannot replace education or experienceand should be used in conjunction with professional judgment.Not all aspects of this practice may be applicab
7、le in allcircumstances. This practice is not intended to represent orreplace the standard of care by which the adequacy of a givenprofessional service must be judged, nor should this documentbe applied without consideration of a projects many uniqueaspects. The word “standard” in the title means onl
8、y that thedocument has been approved through the ASTM consensusprocess.1.2 This practice is organized according to the ConstructionSpecifications Institutes (CSI) MasterFormat2sections to pro-mote consistency in the evaluation of building products.1.2.1 CSI MasterFormat version 1995 is used to organ
9、izeinformation in Table 2. Appendix X1 provides a cross refer-ence comparison to CSI MasterFormat 2004.1.3 This practice includes general, comprehensive datarequirements. Depending upon the building product, certaindata requirements may not apply given the unique character-istics of the product and
10、the potential environmental impactsrelated to the intended use of the product. Depending upon thebuilding product, certain data requirements may need to beadded as appropriate to the unique characteristics of theproduct and the potential environmental impacts related to theintended use of the produc
