BREEAM Compliance Made Simple
Real-time site data for materials, waste, energy, fuel and carbon emissions enables you to gain relevant credits from BREEAM assessors
BREEAM Compliance
Aquvis captures all site data with automated AI driven processing for material deliveries, waste transferred, energy and fuel consumed.
Get verified and auditable records for numerous BREEAM credits including Materials (Mat 01 and Mat 03), Waste (Wst 01) and Responsible Construction (Man 03).
The solution automatically checks for sustainable sourcing compliance of timber (FSC/PEFC, Grown in Britian), materials BES 6001 and IS0 14001. Immediate alerts are visible in the mobile and web app for non-compliance enabling teams to act fast ensuring that projects are fully compliant with their obligations.
Mat 01 Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
The Mat 01 Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) assess and promotes design decisions that reduce environmental impact. Focused on whole life approach it consider the impacts of materials manufacturing, transport, installation and end of life.
Key drivers are:
- Achieving BREEAM credits
- Demonstrate progress sustainability targets
BREEAM credits available
- 6 credits (core credits) – Superstructure
- 1 credit (additional credits) – Substructure and hard landscaping options appraisal during Concept Design.
Mat 03 Responsible Sourcing of Materials
Aquvis automatically Verifies FSC/PEFC certificates for timber, BES 6001 for materials and ISO 14001 for Environmental Management System (EMS). Aquvis captures materials at the RICS Element level for all projects including carbon emissions and the key RICS Elements that should be assessed for responsible sourcing include:
- Super Structure: Framing, roofing, and structural timber.
- Substructure & Hard Landscaping: Foundations and paving.
- Internal Finishes: Flooring, partitions, and ceilings.
- Building Services: Major mechanical and electrical components (MEP)
Wst 01 Construction Waste Management
View waste routes including recycled, recovery, energy recovery, avoiding landfill. See your waste metrics e.g. t/100m2, t/£100k and whether waste is mixed or segregated.
Man 03 Responsible Construction Practices
Site management needs to consider environmental and social responsibility during construction projects.
Contractors are encouraged to minimise impacts through measures like legal timber sourcing and the Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS), which includes monitoring transport, site energy usage, and water consumption.
