Background
What BREEAM Communities is
BREEAM is an internationally used sustainability assessment method for the built environment, developed by the British organisation BRE. BREEAM Communities focuses on the masterplanning of larger areas – new neighbourhoods, development sites or large-scale regeneration.
The assessment looks at an area from several perspectives, including governance, social and economic wellbeing, resources and energy, land use and ecology, and transport.
Background
Water in sustainability assessment
Water-related topics include in particular flood risk assessment, management of surface water runoff and the water strategy of the area. These closely relate to flood modelling and stormwater management.
