FAQs about MRc1 :

For Whole-Building LCA, how do you choose the baseline building?

Is it possible to pursue the Whole-Building Life-Cycle Assessment option late in design?

What is the difference between LCA and LCCA? Our clients often ask for LCA when they really want Life-Cycle Cost Analysis.

My project is a historic building, but there’s no local historic registry. Am I still eligible for Option 1?

How do I account for additional life-cycle impact reductions if my building is designed to last for more than 60 years?

How does the LCA consider operating energy? Isn’t that going to be the biggest source of environmental impacts?

CS-v4 MRc1:Building life-cycle impact reduction

Option 3. building and material reuse

Hi, 

I would like to know how to count the surface of material reused.

For exemple, in my project, on the floor, i have a subfloor with carpet on it. I have to count the surface of all the material that compose floor : concrete, then subflor, and carpet and it ?

Thanks for your help

Guillaume

Based on the credit language, I would not double-count one surface that is below another surface. For example, if you are retaining carpet and subfloor, don't count both of those. Just count one.
