What about laminates and veneers?

NC-2009 IEQc4.4:Low-emitting materials - composite wood and agrifiber products

Above it says "The laminates themselves are not covered by the credit—just the adhesives." Does this mean that you do NOT include any laminate or veneer products under this credit?

Hello, Are floor joists considered part of the building interior? So artificial wood used in the joists cannot have urea formaldehyde?

I'm only submitting this request for clarification as a last resort: the contractor says only Greenguard certification is available, but I don't see anything in the thread or the manual commenting
