System sized by "block" or "peak"?

Hi -
How great the difference could be if a system is sized by "block" compaired to
being sized by "peak" in Trace? If "sized by peak" means sizing the system
based on peak load, what about "sized by block"? For LEED credit application, I
thought that it is not right to size an AHU by "block" in the design case while
size it by "peak" in the baseline.

Thanks!
