BREEAM 2014 and Concrete Buildings (London)

This breakfast briefing provides guidance on the latest version of BREEAM 2014 New Construction, with particular reference to the use of concrete. There will be a focus on the newly added credits including those associated with adaptation to climate change; material efficiency, and durability and resilience. An overview will also be provided on scoring credits for reduction of energy use and carbon emissions, and material ratings in the green guide and use of recycled aggregates. Speakers will provide technical guidance and refer to case studies to enable designers to create high-achieving BREEAM concrete buildings. Attendees at the event will receive a copy of the new guide ‘Concrete and BREEAM 2014’ published by The Concrete Centre.
