Embodied Carbon Reduction Through Early Opportunity Mapping
Carbon Opportunity Mapping reveals where carbon hides before design begins. Early choices shape most of a project’s emissions, and once the design reaches a fixed point, the chance for cutting carbon narrows sharply. This is why in today’s Knowledge Share, we...
Understanding BREEAM MAN 05: POE Requirements, Evidence and Compliance
As the built environment sharpens its focus on real operational performance, BREEAM’s MAN 05 Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) has become an increasingly important part of successful project delivery. It ensures that buildings perform as intended once occupied. This...
Verify As-Built Carbon and Meet Compliance
Achieving Whole Life Carbon (WLC) compliance no longer stops at the design stage. Under BREEAM UK New Construction V7 and GLA London Plan guidance, the true challenge lies in demonstrating that your as-built scheme performs as predicted, and that the assumptions made...
The Power of Material Efficiency Assessments and BREEAM Mat 06 in Sustainable Construction
BREEAM Mat 06 is a key topic in sustainable construction, and today we take a closer look. As one of the largest consumers of raw materials and producers of waste, the construction industry faces growing pressure to build more responsibly. Material Efficiency...
