A5.304.4.2 Reduce the use of potable water to a quantity that does not exceed 55 percent of ETo times <br /> the landscape area. <br /> A5.304.5 Potable water elimination. Provide a water efficient landscape irrigation design that eliminates <br /> the use of potable water beyond the initial requirements for plant installation and establishment. <br /> Methods used to accomplish the requirements of this section shall include, but not be limited to, the items <br /> listed in Section A5.304.4. <br /> A5.304.6 Restoration of areas disturbed by construction. Restore all areas disturbed during <br /> construction by planting with local native and /or noninvasive vegetation. <br /> A5.104.7 Previously developed sites. On previously developed or graded sites, restore or protect at <br /> least 50 percent of the site area with native and /or noninvasive vegetation. <br /> A5.304.8 Graywater irrigation system. Install graywater collection system for onsite subsurface <br /> irrigation using graywater. <br /> MATERIAL CONSERVATION & RESOURCE EFFICIENCY (at least one <br /> required) <br /> Efficient Framing Systems <br /> A5.404.1 Wood framing. Employ advanced wood framing techniques or OVE, as permitted by the <br /> enforcing agency. <br /> Material Sources <br /> A5.405.1 Regional materials. Select building materials or products for permanent installation on the <br /> project that have been harvested or manufactured in California or within 500 miles of the project site, <br /> meeting the criteria listed in Section A5.405.1. <br /> A5.405.2 Bio -based materials. Select bio -based building materials per Section A5.405.2.1 or <br /> A5.405.2.2. <br /> A5.405.2.1 Certified wood products. Certified wood is an important component of green building <br /> strategies and the California Building Standards Commission will continue to develop a standard through <br /> the next code cycle. <br /> A5.405.2.2 Rapidly renewable materials. Use materials made from plants harvested within a ten -year <br /> cycle for at least 2.5 percent of total materials value, based on estimated cost. <br /> A5.405.3 Reused materials. Use salvaged, refurbished, refinished or reused materials for at least 5 <br /> percent of the total value, based on estimated cost of materials on the project. <br /> A5.405.4.1 Recycled content. Use materials, equivalent in performance to virgin materials, with <br /> postconsumer or preconsumer recycled content value (RCV) for a minimum of 15 percent of the total <br /> value, based on estimated cost of materials on the project. Provide documentation as to the respective <br /> values. <br /> A5.405.5 Cement and concrete. Use cement and concrete made with recycled products and complying <br /> with the following sections: <br /> A5.405.5.1 Cement. Meet the following standards for cement: <br /> 1. Portland cement shall meet ASTM C 150. <br /> 2. Blended hydraulic cement shall meet ASTM C 595. <br /> A5.405.5.2 Concrete. Unless otherwise directed by the engineer, use concrete manufactured with <br /> cementitious materials in accordance with Sections A5.405.5.2.1 and A5.405.5.2.2, as approved by the <br /> enforcing agency. <br /> A5.405.5.2.1 Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). Use concrete made with one or more of <br /> the SCMs listed in Section A5.405.5.2.1. <br /> A5.405.5.2.1.1 Mix design equation. Use any combination of one or more SCM5, satisfying Equation <br /> A4.5 -1. <br /> Exception: Minimums for concrete products requiring high early strength may be lower as <br /> directed by the engineer. <br /> A5.405.5.3 Additional means of compliance. Any of the following measures may be employed for the <br /> production of cement or concrete, depending on their availability and suitability, in conjunction with <br /> Section A5.405.5.2. <br /> Note: This general informational handout is provided as a courtesy.
