BREEAM is sometimes referred to as BREEAM Reports, BREEAM Assessment Ratings, BREEAM Assessments, BREEAM Assessors, BREEAM Rating.
How Is BREEAM Assessed?
BREEAM's aim is to educate building designers, owners and occupiers throughout Hartlepool 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.
How To Achieve BREEAM Excellence
The scoring for a BREEAM assessment in Hartlepool is as follows:
- Outstanding: 85%+
- Excellent: 70%+
- Very Good: 55%+
- Good: 45%+
- Pass: 30%+
- Unclassified: <30%
What Are The Benefits of BREEAM?
A BREEAM certification is a way of validating how good a building in Hartlepool is in terms of the environmental impact through a globally recognised standard. It's the hope that the BREEAM assessment will help building owners and designers to improve their carbon footprint and make better use of their resources.
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.
What Does BREEAM Stand For?
First published by the Building Reseearch Establishment (BRE) in 1990 covering buildings across Hartlepool, BREEAM stands for Building Research Establishment's Enviromental Assement Method.
What Is A BREEAM Rating?
The BREEAM ratings for new, non-domestic buildings in Hartlepool are as follows: Pass (standard good practice) for the top 75%, Good (intermediate good practice) for the top 50%. Very Good (advanced good practice) for top 25%. Excellent (best practice) for top 10% and Outstanding innovator) for the top 1%.
It used to be that 'Good' was the maximum level that could be achieved with 100% being the maximum score in Hartlepool from a BREEAM assessment. However, in 2008, a new 'Outstanding' category was added - although the percentages required for each level remained the same.
