		+	= CIOB supports proposals for a 'Part Z' =
		+
		+	CIOB has confirmed its support for a proposed amendment to the UK Building Regulations 2010 to create an Approved Document Z requiring the assessment of whole life carbon emissions, and limiting of embodied carbon emissions, for all major building projects.
		+
		+	The proposal introduces mandatory assessments ahead of setting carbon limits, giving time to converge on robust yet ambitious targets.
		+
		+	The ‘Part Z’ amendment has been drafted by industry sustainability experts and builds off existing industry guidance, providing policymakers with a quick solution to tackling built environment industry emissions. By setting limits, rather than setting specific requirements on individual elements, the flexibility to design the most appropriate solution for each brief is retained, but now with resource use given an equal footing with cost, quality and time.
		+
		+	Caroline Gumble, Chief Executive Officer at CIOB, said on the proposal: “Sustainability and the push to achieve net zero have, quite rightly, taken their place as priorities in construction.
		+
		+	“CIOB is supportive of regulatory moves which enable a focus on embodied carbon, not just operational carbon emissions, and add weight to its consideration as part of the construction and development process. Sustainability is already something which informs much of our work - and will for years to come - and we have been clear to our members that opportunities to take a more environment-centred approach, combined with practical measures and clarity in legislative requirements, should be welcomed. The industry needs to walk the walk on minimising climate change, not just talk the talk, and we expect CIOB members to update their knowledge through CPD and understand how they can make a meaningful positive contribution to achieving net zero.”

The document if introduced (currently only a proposal) would incorporate requirements for the assessment of whole life carbon emissions, and in turn a limiting of embodied carbon emissions, for all major building projects.

	The report was written by 5 construction professionals; Will Arnold (Institution of Structural Engineers), Tim den Dekker (Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios), Dr Jannik Giesekam (Consultant and University of Strathclyde), Dr Julie Godefroy (Consultant, Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers and LETI) and Simon Sturgis (Consutant, RIBA & RICS).

In March of 2022, an industry-supported report proposed an additional document for the building regulations, named Part Z. The document if introduced (currently only a proposal) would incorporate requirements for the assessment of whole life carbon emissions, and in turn a limiting of embodied carbon emissions, for all major building projects.

The report was written by 5 construction professionals; Will Arnold (Institution of Structural Engineers), Tim den Dekker (Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios), Dr Jannik Giesekam (Consultant and University of Strathclyde), Dr Julie Godefoy (Consultant, Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers and LETI) and Simon Sturgis (Consutant, RIBA & RICS).

The proposal for the introduction of embodied carbon regulations is supported by over 150 leading organisations involved in the UK building industry. These include The Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE), The Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE), Chartered Institute Of Building (CIOB), The Institution of Structural Engineers (IStructE), The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), The Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI), The Steel Construction Institute (SCI), The Structural Timber Association (STA), UK Green Building Council (UKGBC), Off-Site Homes Alliance (OSHA), Construction Industry Council (CIC) along with many others and numerous leading firms.
