Description
Since CIRIA published its first environmental issues in construction guides, many of the issues raised have been addressed, but there remains some confusion about the best way for industry to adopt the environmental controls and regulations at a company and strategic level. Complementing the related publications (C510, PR74, PR75), this desk study reviews published research and implementation activities and identifies the remaining key issues. In particular, it reports on progress made in responding to environmental issues over recent years, and identifies the gaps in knowledge and areas that require further action by the industry. The guide is informative, up-to-date and thought-provoking, and will be of interest to clients, developers, planners, contractors, government, local authorities and regulatory bodies.
