Materials and Resources 1.1 – Building Reuse – Maintain 75% of Existing Walls, Floors, and Roof
Like in the Water Efficiency category, many of the Materials and Resources credits maintain the same intentions and implementations, but additional points may be achieved through higher percentages or higher performance of the intention. MR1.1 and MR1.2 are EXACTLY the same, except you can earn two points by achieving the 95% requirement in MR1.2. Please […]
