Environmental handbook for building and civil engineering projects. Part 2: construction (C528)
There is a minimum order of five copies for this title
This is the second of three handbooks containing information and practical guidance on the environmental issues that are likely to be encountered during the key stages of a building or civil engineering project: design and specification, construction, and demolition and site clearance. It aims to inform all those involved of their various obligations and make them aware of the opportunities that are open to them to improve both the industry’s and their projects’ environmental performance.
This handbook deals with 13 stages in the construction phase, from tendering through to handover and guidance on maintenance and records. Concise overviews of the relevant issues are given and each issue is dealt with from both a legislative and technical position. The handbook provides best practice guidance and further sources of information, and forms a useful checklist and inventory of potential environmental impacts.
This publication is linked to C512, which is structured by the stages in the design and specification process, from agreeing the brief to tender action and letting the construction contract(s), and C529 which focuses on the key areas of concern in the demolition and site clearance process, notably legislation and policy, project planning and environmental management.
