摘要：
During the last 20 years, the need to specific measurable systems to assess the sustainability level of green building had been discussed. Many countries have adopted the LEED rating system as an assessment tool of sustainability. The research aim is to examine LEED-NC to determine whether it is applicable in the Middle East Countries. An analytical study of 25 projects in the Middle East is carried with different attributes using an international benchmark, to find out how it works. This indicates the main factors that should be taken in consideration in the assessment process for LEED NC in the MEC. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
