Hi,

What if the project JUST uses only 1ea for each 20 EPD materials?

According to v4 BPDO calculator, material cost does not affect for the point achieving when proceed with Option 1.

Does this mean that project team can buy only 1ea for each 20 EPD materials?

Thanks,

Yes, I don't see why not.

FAQs about MRc2:

For the twenty products with EPDs, can I count multiple products from the same manufacturer?

If I include a product with an EPD in Option 1, do I have to also include it in the scope of products that are part of the Option 2 calculation?

If I include a product in the BPDO EPDs credit, do I also have to include it in the BPDO Material Ingredients credit?

Do I have to submit the full EPD with my documentation for Option 1?

Where can I find a list of products with EPDs?

How do you recognize each type of EPD?

If a company provides an EPD but it does not mention on it that it meets the ISO standards required, can we still submit it for LEED or do we need to have that verification?
