Part of the BRE Trust | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience re·sil·ience n. 1. The ability to recover quickly from illness, change, or misfortune; buoyancy. 2. The property of a material that enables it to resume its original shape or position after being bent, stretched, or compressed; elasticity. resilience n 1. Also called resiliency the state or quality of being resilient 2. (Life Sciences & Allied Applications / Environmental Science) Ecology the ability of an ecosystem to return to its original state after being disturbed 3. (Physics / General Physics) Physics the amount of potential energy stored in an elastic material when deformed a·dapt·a·ble adj. Capable of adapting or of being adapted. Resilience is the ability of a material to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically, and release that energy upon unloading. Proof resilience is defined as the maximum energy that can be absorbed within the elastic limit, without creating a permanent distortion. The modulus of resilience is defined as the maximum energy that can be absorbed per unit volume without creating a permanent distortion. It can be calculated by integrating the stress-strain curve from zero to the elastic limit.

Natural Hazards: To minimise the risks arising from natural hazards. For New Construction the specific requirements are: Engagement The Asset is designed & specified following consultation with identified parties/Stakeholders to ensure the Asset is appropriate for use by all potential users. Inclusivity The Asset is designed & specified following consultation and investigation to ensure the development is accessible to all potential users. Adaptability The Asset is designed & specified to maximise the potential for adaptation to future demands including those resulting from climate change, changes in functionality and change of use With the level of resilience is how we set our sustainability measures/benchmarks. 8 | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience At a credit level Credit - ‘Hea 07 Hazards’ aims to reduce or negate the impacts of natural hazards on the building (requires risk assessment demonstration of mitigation measures) with weighting of issue is adjusted to reflect importance of the issue in the country in question BREEAM Communities - Deals with flood risk assessment at earlier stage of development, Credit - ‘SE10 Adapting to climate change‘ considers Increased temperatures, flood risk, weather volatility, impact on water resources, changes in ground conditions Goes beyond environmental and considers economic / social risks i.e. employment BREEAM 2014 Looking into design resilience, particularly: Updating the thermal comfort issue to take account of predicted temperature increases Probably others in a similar vein 9 | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience Resilience in fragile Environments Part of the BRE Trust | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience Sustainability in fragile environments project overview Aim • To promote holistic sustainable approaches to relief, recovery and reconstruction in the shelter and settlement operations after a natural disaster. Objectives • To provide guidance • To promote sustainable approaches • To provide a coordinated sustainable framework | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience Development Approach • Field and desk research • Consultation with relevant stakeholders both strategically and technically • Drawing on BRE Trust - BREEAM experience in developing environmental and sustainability assessment methods both UK and internationally • Peer review by end users | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience Main Outputs • An evaluation matrix tool covering key sustainability impacts and associated guidance. • Training module for field operatives, including an online e-learning tutorial. • BRE Trust publication on the development and outputs of the tool. | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience | Date: 24 May, 2017 | Title: Building Resilience Closing Comment Resilience is also very dependent on scale !
