FAQs about MRc2 :

How is construction waste accounted for when utilizing off-site construction, like modular construction or pre-fabrication of assemblies?

How does MRc2 work for projects pursuing a campus approach, or any project where waste management will be shared with other construction projects?

Can materials that have been unused and returned to the manufacturer as part of a “take-back” program contribute to the credit?

Should I include hazardous material such as lead-based paint in MRc2 calculations?

Should household-type trash from workers' lunches and office use be included in MRc2 diversion and calculations?

Can sending material to waste-to-energy plants count toward MRc2?

The requirements of this credit say that land-clearing debris does not contribute to the percentage of materials diverted from the landfill. What exactly is considered "land clearing debris"?

Oops! Our trash was measured by both weight and volume at different times. How do I standardize this?

Sompoche - I think that concrete scrap used as backfill is a common waste diversion tactic. I wanted to make sure you were aware of clicking the Single -page view link at the bottom of the page so you can read and search all posts for items of interest. For instance, Single -page view opens http://www.leeduser.com/credit/NC-2009/MRc2?all-comments=true and then search for concrete. There are threads below called Concrete Recycling and Construction Waste Management || Clean Fill (among others) that might be of interest to you.
