FAQs about MRc5 :

Why can’t I include mechanical, electrical and plumbing components in this credit? What if I consistently include MEP materials in the calculations for all of the MR credits I’m attempting?

We are pursuing IEQc4.5 as an ID credit. Are we thus required to include the cost of furniture in MRc3–7?

What if different parts of a product are manufactured at different locations?

What is the purpose of the newly added Option 2? Can I pursue both options?

How do we account for materials using the new Option 2 equation?

With steel and aluminum products, why do I often get review comments questioning why my extraction distance is the same as my manufacture distance?

You cannot include temporary materials in any of the calculations for MR Credits MRc3, MRc4, or MRc5. The LEED-2009 BD+C Reference Guide, under the “Requirements” heading for each of these credits, says, “Include only materials permanently installed in the project.” You will find the same language in the CS Rating System.
