BREEAM is sometimes referred to as BREEAM Assessment Ratings, BREEAM Rating, BREEAM Assessors, BREEAM Reports, BREEAM Assessments.
What Are The Benefits of BREEAM?
It's not unheard of that making a building more environmentally friendly will increase the cost of construction - but BREEAM aims to show that by building this way you will save on operational costs in the future that in turn limit investor costs and makes the property more attractive when reselling.
It's the hope that the BREEAM assessment will help building owners and designers improve their carbon footprint across Penkridge and make better use of their resources. A BREEAM certification is a way of validating how good a building is in terms of the environmental impact through a globally recognised standard.
How Is BREEAM Assessed?
BREEAM's aim is to educate building designers, owners and occupiers throughout Penkridge about the impact their building has on the local area. To do this, BREEAM gives a rating of Outstanding, Excellent, Very Good, Good or a Pass based on transport, waste, energy, health, water, pollution, materials, management and ecology.
