D) Extend equipment warranty periods

US Green Building Council LEED-Green-Associate Exam - Topic 1 Question 10 Discussion

Actual exam question for US Green Building Council's LEED-Green-Associate exam
Question #: 10
Topic #: 1
[All LEED-Green-Associate Questions]

Which of the following is a design and planning strategy for reducing energy demand?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Sizing the building appropriately means designing the building to meet the needs and expectations of the occupants, without creating excess space that would require more energy to heat, cool, and light. This strategy reduces the energy demand of the building and also saves on construction costs and materials.

D seems irrelevant to energy demand reduction.

Wait, maximizing thermal bridging? That sounds counterproductive!

I think C could help too, but not as much as B.

Extending equipment warranty periods doesn’t seem related to energy demand reduction; I feel like that’s more about maintenance.

Increasing outdoor air ventilation sounds like it might help, but I’m not certain if it actually reduces energy demand overall.

I remember we talked about sizing buildings appropriately in class; it seems like that could definitely help reduce energy demand.

I think maximizing thermal bridging is actually not a good strategy for reducing energy demand, but I’m not completely sure.

Extending equipment warranty periods doesn't seem directly related to reducing energy demand. I'm leaning towards "Size the building appropriately" as the best answer here.

I'm a bit confused by this question. Increasing outdoor air ventilation seems like it could increase energy demand, not reduce it. I'll have to think about this more carefully.

Okay, let me think this through. Maximizing thermal bridging would actually increase heat transfer, so that's not the right answer. Sizing the building appropriately makes sense as a way to reduce energy demand. I'll go with that.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I know reducing energy demand is important, but I'm not sure which of these strategies would actually help with that.

This seems like a straightforward question about energy-efficient building design. I'm pretty confident I can figure this out.

I'm pretty confident the attack vector is DNS spoofing, and encrypting communication protocols would be the best prevention.

This seems pretty straightforward. The question mentions an ISO file in CDFS format, so I'm pretty sure the answer is D - data from a CD copied using Windows.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know Telnet and FTP are used for remote access, but I'm not sure if they're specifically for starting the Cisco Transport Controller. I'll have to think about this one a bit more.

Okay, let me think this through. The key is protecting the data when disks are removed, so it's probably not something like secure erase. I'm leaning towards disk metadata encryption, since that would keep the data secure even if the physical disk is taken out of the system.
