In a LEED project, we want to reuse the system furniture from the existing tenancy, the desktop made of wood, but not FSC certified. Must this component be included in the FSC wood percentage calculation? The reference manual referred to new furniture in one section then allude to total wood products in another.
Aye or Nay?

What building components are typically purchased with FSC content to earn this credit?
Does FSC-certified wood automatically contribute to IEQc4.4 as a low-emitting material?
Does FSC-certified bamboo products count towards this credit?
Should wood used on site features such as benches or a gazebo be included here?
Is there a minimum quantity of wood that must be used on the project to qualify for this credit?

Steve, MRc7 is reserved for "new" wood products, to the best of my understanding. I would exclude the used furniture.
