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?

I am working on a project where we will be renovating an existing 2 story warehouse to turn it into office space. We will be removing all the plywood via deconstruction and plan on using it for site protection. Would we be able to count the plywood that is reused on site for material reuse even if it is for temporary use?

The credit language reads to include only materials permanently installed in the project. Since the plywood would be for temporary use I don't believe it can be included.
