BREEAM is sometimes referred to as BREEAM Reports, BREEAM Assessors, BREEAM Rating, BREEAM Assessments, BREEAM Assessment Ratings.
What Are The Benefits of BREEAM?
It's the hope that the BREEAM assessment will help building owners and designers improve their carbon footprint across Ashtead 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.
BREEAM aims to show that by building with the local area in mind, though capital costs may increase, you should save on operational costs in the long-term. This limits investor costs and makes the building more attractive when it comes to selling.
How To Achieve BREEAM Excellence
The scoring for a BREEAM assessment in Ashtead is as follows:
- Outstanding: 85%+
- Excellent: 70%+
- Very Good: 55%+
- Good: 45%+
- Pass: 30%+
- Unclassified: <30%
How Is BREEAM Assessed?
BREEAM's aim is to educate building designers, owners and occupiers throughout Ashtead 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.
