I am completing the documentation for MRc 4, 5 & 7. Currently, we are working from version 3.0 of the form on LEED Online. There doesn't appear to be an option to upload the Materials & Resource Calculator on version 3.0. Is it only on Version 4.0? If we continue with version 3.0 will our reviewer request the calculator anyway? Just trying to figure out if I should upgrade the form...

Hi Angie,
In my experience with this, you have choices. You can request the form be upgraded to v4.0 if you haven't been using it for entry. You can continue to use the v3.0 form but plan on using the calculator for backup and upload the calculator under Special Circumstances. In that case, I wouldn't fill out the form just put a summary bottom line value in there and refer them to the calculator.
My recommendation would be to use the calculator whether or not you decide to upgrade the form. The forms are broken with respect to the cross connections and the backup cutsheet percentages. That's why they are moving back to the calculator approach.
