Are filing cabinets included in the calculations for Maintain Interior Nonstructural Elements? If so, are they included in only the qualifying area or do they count as reusable components for this credit?

Farah, see the guidance under the Checklists tab above. Furniture applies to MRc3 and not MRc1.

Tristan, wouldn't cabinets qualify as interior casework?

Farah, are you asking if cabinets qualify under MRc1? I am a little confused about your question.

Sorry for the confusion- essentially, yes. I wanted to know if cabinets are included in calculations for interior casework- if they are part of the qualifying area for casework, and if they count as an interior nonstructural element.

If they are built-in, they could be considered casework. If there are in any way mobile, I would consider them furniture, not casework.
