Abstract
This guidance document has been produced by the Building Research Establishment during the course of a research project on behalf of the BRE Trust in collaboration with the BRE Centre for Resilience. It
defines the characteristics of excess heat, considers the potential for harm arising from excess heat and the associated health impacts. It also identifies the causes of excess heat and potential preventative measures.
An accompanying assessment protocol is available in order to provide a process to be used to determine the seriousness of a potential threat to health from exposure to high temperatures within a dwelling.
