"Material Type" definition in the raw materials credit

I have a vocab question regarding the raw materials credit. It says under option 2: "Calculate compliant building products and materials for 50% of one material type (1 point) or two material types (2 points)." What is a material type? Is it concrete vs steel vs wood, or biobased vs. non-biobased, or something different? Am I missing an explanation somewhere? That differentiation is really important.
