CS-2009 MRc4: Recycled Content
One LEED site boundary has two individual LEED projects that are under construction under one contract by the same GC. Would it be acceptable to aggregate the data for MRc4 and MRc5 documentation for the two LEED projects? Both projects are registered under CS 2.0

The recycled content percentage on the product data sheet is given as a range. What should I do?
Is the default average recycled content value of 25% for steel still allowed?
Can site materials, such as soil, be included in the MR credit calculations?
Are there recycled content claims that I should be wary of?

Eeshoo, I am split on this question. On the one hand, it makes sense in terms of your project's process. On the other hand, I could see the reviewer being concerned that you aren't able to verify that the buildings on an individual basis meet the requisite thresholds. I wonder if there is any way to show in your documentation that the sustainable materials are allocated evenly between the projects?
