		+
		+	* The ecology section has been completely rewritten. An ecological site survey and evaluation must be completed at Stage 1 for any credits to be awarded. Where there is little or no ecology, an ecologist is not necessarily required (a checklist needs to be completed to see if Route 1 (no ecologist) can be adopted). However, the amount of credits that can be achieved using Route 1 is capped to 5, out of a possible 11 where Route 2 is adopted (using an ecologist).
		+	* The ecologist must be involved and collaborate with the design team during the Concept Design to optimise the ecological value of the site and the scope for limiting negative impacts and maximising the enhancement opportunities.

		+	== Mat01 – Environmental Impacts from Construction Products - LCA : ==
		+
		+	* The issue has substantially changed and now incorporates the previous Mat02 (hard landscaping and boundary protection) and Mat04 (insulation) issues. Credits are no longer awarded using green guide ratings but on a Life Cycle Analysis of the building using either a simplified BREEAM tool or IMPACT compliant software. The score is significantly capped where just the simplified tool is used to a maximum of 2 out of 7. Therefore, a full LCA is advised using an Impact compliant software tool. Where using the simplified at Concept Design and full LCA software at Technical Design a maximum of 4 credits can be achieved.
		+	* Life cycle analysis of the building should start at Concept Design and include appraisals for various design options at both Concept and Technical Design to inform the final design. To be submitted to the BRE at the end of Stage 2 and 4.
		+	* Points are awarded (maximum of 2) based on the building’s performance against a benchmark building. It should be noted that the two credits may be hard to achieve based on a building of concrete construction.
		+	* The life cycle analysis will need to be updated during the Technical Design stage.
		+	* If the initial life cycle analysis is not completed and submitted to the BRE at Stage 2, only 3 of the 7 credits can be targeted for this issue.
		+	* The simplified BREEAM tool can not be used at Technical Design Stage.

		+
		+	== Mat02 – Environmental Impacts from Construction Products - EPD: ==
		+
		+	* Mat02 now focuses on encouraging the specification of products with Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). Architect’s will need to be made aware of the new criteria. Points are awarded based on the type of EPD a product has and a total of 20 points is required to achieve a credit over 10 product categories:
		+	** timber,
		+	** concrete/cementitious,
		+	** metal,
		+	** stone/aggregate,
		+	** clay-based,
		+	** gypsum,
		+	** glass,
		+	** plastic/polymer/resin, paint, chemicals and bituminous
		+	** animal fibre or skin, cellulose fibre
		+	** other products
		+
		+	* A maximum of 4 points can be achieved under each category, although there are no weightings or restrictions placed on the amount or volume of materials specified with EPDs, which could be exploited.
		+
		+	== Mat03 – Responsible Sourcing of Materials: ==
		+
		+	* The Sustainable Procurement Plan must be prepared at RIBA Stage 1.
		+	* The responsible sourcing benchmarks have been reduced and building services is now an exemplary performance issue. Therefore, it should now be easier to achieve more credits, at least 2, for this issue.
		+
		+	= Waste =
		+
		+	== Wst01 – Construction Site Waste Management: ==
		+
		+	* The pre-demolition audit is now a separate credit and must be completed at Stage 2. Requirements are now more stringent.
		+
		+	== Wst02 – Use of Recycled and Sustainably Sourced Aggregates: ==
		+
		+	* The way this issue is assessed and scored has been changed radically. Points are calculated based on aggregate type, amount, distance travelled and region aggregate was located.
		+
		+	== Wst06 – Design for Disassembly and Adaptability: ==
		+
		+	* This issue is now split into 2 credits – one for recommendations (Stage 1-2) and one for Implementation (Stage 4). Additional focus on disassembly.
