1 SMARTWaste: Overview and data Maggie Blackwell Part of the BRE Trust

2 SMARTWaste Construction tools

3 SMARTWaste Construction tools SMARTWaste Plan: Online Site Waste Management Plan tool Fully interactive prepare, implement and review a SWMP Measurement and monitoring of waste Designed for compliance with Code for Sustainable Homes and BREEAM

4 smarter Add-on to SMARTWaste available to SMARTWaste members Monitor & target onsite: energy consumption (electricity, gas and other fuel) water consumption procurement of certified timber Attain BREEAM & CfSH related management credits Manage all your site s environmental impacts using one easy-touse online tool

5 Bespoke versions of SMARTWaste Can be developed to meet your companies requirements: Considerate Constructor Scheme reporting Transport Performance reporting Spreadsheet waste data upload function Etc.

6 SMARTWaste data reports At project and company level Waste arisings/ 100K project value Waste arisings/100m 2 floor area Waste management routes: % reused % recycled % recovered % landfilled % diverted from landfill

7 SMARTWaste data reports - 2 Produce reports of waste arisings by: Time period, e.g. monthly, quarterly Construction, demolition or excavation phase Subcontractor

8 SMARTWaste reports Company level

9 SMARTWaste reports project level

10 SMARTWaste data

11 SMARTWaste data Data collected via the SMARTWaste tool since 2008 Number of projects Cumulative Number of Projects Registered Total value of projects registered in excess of 90Billion Total floor area of projects registered over 300 Million m Year of registration Millions tonnes Cumulative Total tonnes waste recorded (Million tonnes)

12 How BRE use SMARTWaste data (1) Data from completed projects analysed to provide information on key performance indicators: Data cleansing to remove test projects, potential outliers Waste arisings/ 100K project value Waste arisings/100m 2 floor area Waste management routes for waste arisings Reused Recycled Recovered Landfilled Can be broken down by: Waste type Location Project type

13 How BRE use SMARTWaste data (2) Membership Benchmarking service Quarterly overall performance indicator updates by project type 20 waste products Waste product Tonnes waste/100k project value ( ) Education Residential Waste arising/ 100K project value Waste arising/100m 2 floor area Free to members Bricks Concrete Gypsum Timber Metals

14 How BRE use SMARTWaste data (3) These performance indicators are updated quarterly and are used in the SMARTWaste benchmark calculator to assist with waste forecasts

15 How BRE use SMARTWaste data (4) Range of performance indicators - benchmarks Range of key performance indicators reviewed for different type of projects Lower quartile = best practice Next quartile = good practice Highest two quartiles = standard practice Residential, education, commercial retail and offices where the dataset > 10 Benchmarks for the industry to start improving performance - moving from standard to best practice

16 Benchmarks of tonnes/100m 2 for standard, good and best practice ( ) Best practice Good practice Residential < >8.2 Commercial Retail < >7.3 Education < >8.7 Standard practice Healthcare < >7.2

17 How BRE use SMARTWaste data (5) BREEAM Credits awarded based on amount of waste generated (less waste= more credits) Based on averaged SMARTWaste data Excludes groundwork/excavation waste (ie. soils & stones) Actual wastes (excludes void space) BREEAM 2011 New Construction, Wst 01 Construction waste management BREEAM Credits Amount of waste generated per 100m 2 (gross internal floor area) m 3 Tonnes One credit Two credits Three credits Exemplary level

18 Future data analysis Adding performance indicator data for refurbishment projects to SMARTWaste benchmark calculator Developing performance indicators for energy use (tonnesco 2 / 100K project value) Developing performance indicators for on-site water use (m 3 water/ 100K project value)

19 How SMARTWaste data can help you

20 How this data can help you: Performance indicators can be used to: Assist with forecasting of waste arisings (using the benchmark calculator tool in SMARTWaste) Compare project performance with similar projects from the same sector Assist with waste planning Help with setting targets for future performance

21 How BRE can help: SMARTWaste data checking services Waste data checking and reporting: Waste amounts appear realistic relative to skip size Waste management route selected looks appropriate for waste type Segregated/not segregated seems appropriate for waste type Recycling rates for destinations used are complete for last 3 months Waste types are suited to the project type

22 How BRE can help: Company specific reporting Reporting of waste arisings by waste type and by waste facility Reporting of waste management methods including % reused, recycled and diverted from landfill Comparison of company performance against industry benchmarks All completed Office projects Average for company X Office projects % Company X Office projects in range Tonnes waste/ 100K project value Best Good Standard < >

23 Our SMARTWaste Publication Published 2012 An overview of SMARTWaste Plan and how the data it collects can be used. Performance indicators of waste arising project value and floor area new build and refurbishment projects. Case studies demonstrating cost savings and best practice Available at a discounted price if a SMARTWaste Member (and signed up to BRE Connect) Available at

24 WRAP/BRE SMARTWaste data report BRE s SMARTWaste team have recently produced a report of SMARTWaste data for WRAP. Aims to provide industry with range of waste data for waste planning/forecasting and management. The report is in the form of a spreadsheet and gives summaries of waste arisings and waste management routes. Report can be filtered to give results for different project types, construction types and locations. The report is available via the link
