The effect a building
has on the environment can be substantially minimized with the
efficient use and disposal of building materials. LEED
Materials and Resources credits looks at the products and
materials used in building construction and requires that they be
used efficiently, conservatively and pragmatically, from the design
and specification of recycled material content to the effective
management of the project waste stream throughout
construction.
Not all credits have EDR-related webpages. Only credits with
applicable EDR references show active links.
