The BREEAM 2008 update represents the biggest single change that has happened to the scheme since its launch eighteen years ago.
The key changes are:
- Compulsory Post-Construction Reviews mean that the completed building has to deliver on its design promises.
- Minimum standards mean that high performance has to be achieved in key sections, particularly energy.
This seminar will assist attendees to:
- To gain a better understanding of BREEAM 2008 and how to deliver 'Excellent' ratings on projects
- Identify the best credits to target in terms of cost effectiveness and practicality
- Set up a project to ensure BREEAM is integrated into the design and construction of the building.
Course sessions include:
- Introduction to BREEAM, how it works and key changes
- Key credits to target: Management, health and well-being energy, transport
- Key credits to target: Water, materials, waste, land use and ecology, pollution
- How to ensure that you deliver an 'Excellent' building.
Who should attend:
This course would be of interest to anyone involved in BREEAM projects and of particular interest to designers, project managers and contractors.
The sessions will cover the BREEAM credits and topics that are common to all non-domestic BREEAM schemes, rather than focussing on one particular scheme.
Certificates of attendance are issued to attendees for CPD purposes.
