Building Materials Rating System for Experts (3/3 people found this helpful)
This book is essential reading for anyone actively involved in the specification of sustainable building materials. Environmental performance of materials or components is measured by a simple rating system (A, B or C) devised by the Building Research Establishment (BRE) which clearly defines how building materials or components perform in terms of their environmental impact. Websites such as www.sustainworld.com are actively involved in identifying manufacturers of building materials whose products achieve the highest BRE Green Guide 'A' rating.
