When considering the design of a new building, an architect is considering using steel or wood as the material. Looking at the entire life of the building, which statement would support using wood as the material for the building?

wood is a renewable resource while steel is non-renewable

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the one of the supporting statements for wood would be that wood is a renewable resource while steel is non-renewable. Meaning that if mistakes or changes need to be made the same wood can be reused. Also at the end of the life-cycle of the house, when it is torn down the entirety of the wood used can be repurposed for another usage.
