FAQs about MRc3 :

Can I include reused furniture?

A material being reused contains recycled content. Can I count this under MRc3 and MRc4?

We are reusing a lot of equipment from another building. Can we count that?

We are demolishing an existing building, crushing the concrete and stone, and using it as fill onsite. Does this count under MRc3?

Our project has access to building materials that were delivered for another project, and never used because that project was canceled. If we use these materials can we count them here?

Can crushed concrete, masonry or asphalt being reused onsite qualify as materials reuse?

-Does a re-manufactured product count in Materials Reuse? I know that Materials Reuse applies to products that are no longer used for their original intent- if a product is remanufactured into a new product, is it considered rapidly renewable? -If a material is salvaged from on-site, must it have a different use to be considered Regional? (regarding Materials Reuse and Regional Materials credits)

1) Please give an example of remanufactured. But from what you have said, it sounds like recycled, not reused. Definitely not rapidly renewable.2) Please give an example.

An example would be remanufactured wood doors, now used as tabletops.

Farah, that would count as both regional (if salvaged and remanufactured in the project radius) and reused.
