FAQs about MRc7 :

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

What building components are typically purchased with FSC content to earn this credit?

We’re having trouble getting FSC wood within our budget. Can we use products with another forestry certification?

Do I need to provide invoices for all of the new wood products purchased for the project, or just FSC wood products?

I have supporting manufacturer documentation for the FSC wood used on our project. Is this enough to document this credit, or do I need invoices as well?

Can products labeled “FSC Recycled” or “FSC Recycled Credit” contribute towards MRc7? What about "FSC Mix" percentages that refer to recycled content?

Does FSC-certified wood automatically contribute to IEQc4.4 as a low-emitting material?

We are using a lot of reclaimed wood. Should we include this in our MRc7 calculations? What about wood that is already installed on the project, in a renovation? What about wood products with recycled content?

Does FSC-certified bamboo products count towards this credit?

A product has FSC-certified veneer, but a non-certified core. Can we prorate the MRc7 contribution of this product based on the cost of the veneer?

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?

NC-2009 MRc7:Certified Wood

Materials and Resource Calculator

When trying to complete the Template, it says "Download, complete and upload the Materials and Resource Calculator (found under "Credit Resources") to document sustainable criteria values for MR Credits 3-6. But I do not find this Calculator in the Resources in LEED Online. Anyone knows where to find this Calculator?

When you go into the credit information page, there is a tab of links to the right of the "In Progress" and "Complete" buttons. There is a hot link called credit resources. If you click on that, it will take you to the page where you can download the MR credit resource calculator. You have to go to the credit information page for a credit like MRc4, 5, or 7 to see it.

Valeria, Thanks for your reply, but I know where the resource section is in LEED Online. It is just that there is no such calculator to be found there.

I realized after I posted that you were familiar with where it would be... sorry about that! But I just checked into my projects and I see it in them where it should be. That is strange that it isn't there for you. Are you the PM on the project or just assigned that credit?

If you would like to PM me your email address, I can send you a blank copy of the excel doc.

Valerie, I am the Project administrator on several projects I am doing but the spreadsheet can not be found in any of them. So yes, it is sort of strange...

The calculator is not available to our project under the 'credit resources' section either...
