A new standard for improving the environmental performance of buildings

ISO announces the release of a new standard set to reduce environmental impact of buildings: “ISO 21931-1:2010, Sustainability in building construction – Framework for methods of assessment of the environmental performance of construction works – Part 1: Buildings”

 

The new ISO 21931-1:2010 standard is aimed at improving the environmental performance of buildings by providing an internationally agreed framework for methods used in assessing their environmental stewardship.


The new standard aims to bridge the gap between regional and national methods by providing a common framework for their expression. It applies to all stages of a construction project, from design through to construction, operation, maintenance, refurbishment and deconstruction, to ensure that the finished product is an eco-friendly building.
