Use this page to share feedback on the current value to you of the BREEAM Wiki, what value you would like to get in the future and content suggestions
[edit] Current value - quotes from users
- “BREEAM Wiki provides the project team with an easier way to design sustainable buildings by giving examples on how to solve a particular problem in a practical way.”
- “BREEAM Wiki is an useful database created by experienced BREEAM consultants and other stakeholders providing simple and clear guidance for addressing BREEAM issues. Useful especially for designers, clients and novice Assessors the Wiki helps readers to understand the contexts and additional information relevant for individual issues.”
- “When many work together for a goal, Great things may be accomplished, like BREEAM Wiki.”
- "BREEAM wiki is a very useful way to learn from other peoples’ interpretation of BREEAM and also assist people who want to learn about BREEAM themselves."
- "The Wiki is very easy to use and navigate. Everyone has areas of BREEAM which they are more familiar and less familiar with. The Wiki provides a public platform to share knowledge and learn from. The Wiki should save a lot of time on clarifying things and will definitely help those new to BREEAM get affiliated with it quicker."
[edit] Value I would like to get
- To see all stakeholders contributing thus increasing inter-disciplinary communication
- A place to pass on a new lesson as soon as I discover it
