When the is new and installed in the project, it can not contribute to this credit. MR 4 Recycled content 1-2 points Direct Use materials with recycled content such that the sum of post-consumer recycled content plus 1/2 of the pre-consumer recycled content constitutes at least 10% (1 point) or 20% (2 points), based on cost, of the total value of the materials in the project. The recycled content value of a material assembly is determined by weight. The recycled fraction of the assembly is then multiplied by the cost of assembly to determine the recycled content value is a contribution to MR 4. The percentages of recycled content will vary according to the choice of the components and the selected suppliers. Percentages of pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled content of the will vary depending on the choice of components, as presented below: Steel type Pre-customer Post-customer Stainless steel 47,69 % 27,22 % Satin finish steel 18,82 % 67,92 % has listed all the information for each component by supplier and will be able to provide the information specific to each project. MR 5 Regional material 1-2 points Direct Use building materials or products that have been extracted, harvested, recovered and processed within 800 km (500 miles) (2,400 km if shipped by rail or water) of the final manufacturing site. Demonstrate that the final manufacturing site is within 800 km (500 miles) (2,400 km if shipped by rail or water) of the project site for these products. If only a fraction of a product or material is extracted, harvested, recovered, processed and manufactured locally, then only that percentage (by weight) must contribute to the regional value. The minimum percentage of regional materials for each point threshold is 20% (1 point) or 30% (2 points). is a contribution to this credit, since it contains components that are extracted, collected, recovered and processed within 800 km (by truck) or 2,400 km (by train Or boat) of the final place of manufacture.
