BREEAM is the BRE (Building Research Establishment) Environmental Assessment Method. It measures the environmental performance of a building throughout its life. A BREEAM assessment rates a building project on the environmental and sustainability aspects of the construction and design. The BREEAM score is a percentage which correlates to a rating of outstanding, excellent, very good, good or pass. A score of 85% or more achieves the highest rating of outstanding. A BREEAM assessment can be carried out on a new or existing building. A high BREEAM rating will add value to a project as it differentiates buildings with a higher environmental performance. It shows that a building is ahead of current regulations and improves health and well being of occupants. Running costs are reduced and some local authorities and funding organisations now require a BREEAM assessment or similar for new large developments.
