In addition to the conference, taking place March 20 - 22, 2012 in London, there are seminar sessions, within the main conference overing the most pressing and important issues for built environment professionals.
With the emphasis throughout on delivering practical and applied information, each seminar is structured to provide key learning points, supported by case studies, analysis, and examples of best practice.
This seminar sets out the vital background on how we use standards to measure sustainability for construction products and works - the impacts and the benefits. After all, “if you can't measure it, you can't manage it” and if the industry are using different methods different products or buildings cannot be compared. The seminar will set out the principles and give examples of various systems.
Date: March 21, 12:30 - 14:00
