The construction industry is responsible for high energy consumption, high carbon dioxide emissions, high extraction of non-renewable materials, and large generation of solid waste in the world.The use of prefabricated, industrialized, and technological construction methods can reduce environmental impacts.This research aimed to analyze a single-family residential project in the construction system in Light Steel Framing (LSF), to be implemented in southern Brazil, regarding the prerequisites and credits of the environmental certification Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) for Homes of the Green Building Council (GBC) Brazil Homes.For this, it was necessary to apply the Technical Quality Regulation for the Energy Efficiency Level for Homes, achieving the A-level classification in this analysis, with 5.06 final points.Therefore, it was considered the constitution of the building wrap in LSF, the energy efficiency of the materials used, the water heating and lighting systems. The external sealing system used in the residence was the External Insulated Finish System, and the acoustic and thermal insulation occurred through the use of glass wool on the walls and lining. In order to obtain the highest level of LEED certification, the project has received suggestions for improvements. The project obtained 60 final points in the analysis, which would allow the achievement of the gold certification seal.
