BREEAM2016 V6 Wat01 Calculator v4.1 Rev.3 SP

BREEAM International 2016 / Version 6 Wat 01 Water consumption calculator -
Important information
This version of the BREEAM International 2016 Wat 01 calculator can be used for the following building types:
1) Offices
2) Retail
3) Industrial
4) Education
5) Other building types
Assessors may use the ‘Other building type calculator’ for the assessment of Residential buildings, Residential institut
stay,selecting the relevant option from the drop-down list.
For Bespoke projects, please, see the criteria appendix for details of which building type to use for the assessment of
