BREEAM is sometimes referred to as BREEAM Reports, BREEAM Rating, BREEAM Assessments, BREEAM Assessment Ratings, BREEAM Assessors.
How Is BREEAM Assessed?
Covering a range of environmental issues in Arlesford, BREEAM looks at a building's impact on transport, waste, energy, health, water, pollution, materials, management and ecology to assess whether a building is Outstanding, Excellent, Very Good, Good or a Pass. Covering more than 50 countries and 250,000 buildings, BREEAM's aim is to educate building owners, designers and occupants about their impact on the local area.
What Is A BREEAM Rating?
The BREEAM ratings for a new, non-domestic building in Arlesford are:
- Pass: standard good practice (top 75%)
- Good: intermediate good practice (top 50%)
- Very Good: advanced good practice (top 25%)
- Excellent: best practice (top 10%)
- Outstanding: innovator (top 1%)
The maximum score a building can achieve in Arlesford is 100% from a BREEAM assessment. It used to be that 'Good' was the maximum level that could be achieved, however in 2008 a new 'Outstanding' category was added. The percentage required for each level remained the same despite this.
