CI-2009 MRc3.2:Materials Reuse—Furniture and Furnishings

Reused Metal Shelving

We have a library renovation project that is reusing the existing shelving in the space instead of purchasing new. Since it is being used for the same purpose this guide indicates that it should not be used for credit MR3.2 but instead for MR1.2. How can a furniture item be calculated into 1.2 since it does not really have surface area?

i think the distinction is relative to reusing them for the same purpose in the same location. If that's the case, they would qualify as built-in case goods for interior non-structural components.
