COUNCIL REGULATIONS
Within all constructions, each council will have certain regulations which apply to that particular area for building. The BCA codes will apply for the area according to such factors as loads or other factors (eg saline/snow/wind). Each construction manager must review the council regulations before beginning construction and work with the council and local engineers for that area.
BASIX
BASIX, the Building Sustainability Index, was introduced to ensure certain residential buildings are designed to use less potable water and be responsible for fewer greenhouse gas emissions by setting energy and water reduction targets for houses and units. If a BASIX certificate is required, the designer/architect enters data relating to the house or unit design such as location, size, building materials, etc. into the BASIX web based tool. BASIX. analyses this data and determines how it scores against the Energy and Water targets. The design must pass specific targets before a BASIX certificate can be printed. This certificate lists all the commitments that have been agreed to. A certifying authority (PCA) checks these

NABERS
NABERS is a performance-based rating system for existing buildings. NABERS rates a building on the basis of its measured operational impacts on the environment, and provides a simple indication of how well you are managing these environmental impacts compared with your peers and neighbours. It is a national initiative by the Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water.

Proposed energy efficiency amendments and new provisions include: Residential buildings energy efficiency subject to Nationwide House and Energy Rating (NatHERS)4 star ratings rather than detailed, prescriptive deemed-tosatisfy provisions. Building services (such as a heating system) for a confined space must obtain energy from a renewable source or has a low GHG intensity; The definition of conditioned space is broadened to capture indirect airconditioning, where conditioned air is sourced from another space (such as a stairwell); Air-conditioning and ventilation requirements for buildings are made more stringent Extending hot water supply provisions to swimming pools and spas (the 2009 BCA covers only hot water pipes) to require that the GHG intensity of the energy source for heating of pools and spas be reduced. It includes a proposal that electricity or gas not power outdoor pools; Inserting requirements for lighting in residences. (There are currently no restrictions on lighting in residential buildings); Decreasing lighting allowances for buildings which were already subject to allowances (such as health-care buildings, cafs, shops, restaurants, schools and laboratories); Inserting a new thermal calculation method which is in line with developments in house energy rating software; Inserting a definition for renewable energy certificate (REC) to describe an established way to quantify solar water heater and heat-pump water heaters performance. The draft BCA also says RECs issued by the Commonwealth Government are suitable evidence of compliance5

Alternative solutions
At times building projects may need alternative solutions to a construction problem. Whilst they need to comply with BCA requirements, they will also need to be in keeping within the policies and procedures and standard specifications of the organisation you are working within. These variations to the BCA requirements need to be then recorded officially and approved by an assessment group. Designers and consultants may be used to assist with satisfying this deemed to satisfy performance criteria through variations to the code.

Verification Method
Calculations - using analytical methods or mathematical models; and/or Tests - using a technical operation either on-site or in a laboratory to directly measure one or more performance criteria of a given solution.
In keeping with the flexibility provided in the performance-based BCA, designers are not restricted to using a listed Verification Method. Any other method may be used if the approval authority is satisfied that it establishes compliance with the BCA. However, in making a decision, an approval authority may have regard to the relevant Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions or Verification Methods provided for in the BCA.10
Expert Judgement.
Where physical criteria are unable to be tested or modelled by calculation, the opinion of a technical expert may be accepted.
Deemed-to-Satisfy.
Performance based regulations do not dictate how to achieve required results Any acceptable proposal can be approved BCA provides standard solutions that may be used these are optional These standard solutions are called Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions Deemed to Satisfy is a comparison made between the Deemed-to-Satisfy solution and the proposed building solution. If it can be demonstrated to the approval authority that the Building Solution complies in an equivalent or superior way to a Deemed-to-Satisfy Provision, then it will be deemed to meet the relevant Performance Requirement.

Alternative solutions to a design or construction problem that will comply with BCA requirements are discussed and proposed in accordance with company policies and procedures.
In order to comply with the provisions of A1.5 (to comply with Sections A to J inclusive) the following method must be used to determine the Performance Requirements relevant to the Alternative Solution: a) Identify the relevant Deemed-to-Satisfy Provision of each Section or Part that is to be the subject of the Alternative Solution. b) Identify the Performance Requirements from the same Sections or Parts that are directly relevant to the identified Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions.

Performance-based solutions are identified and documented in accordance with BCA requirements.
Any changes to BCA requirements or alternative solutions must be documented according to the agreed criteria under a Declaration of Compliance. The criteria must be matched to the solution and the alternative comparison in accordance with the guidelines set out by BCA. 11These documents contain model tender clauses and contract provisions for drafting contracts relating to projects either directly or indirectly funded by the Australian Government and may be adopted on privately funded projects by head contractors. The Code Monitoring Group (CMG) is an interagency body responsible for considering issues arising under the Code and Guidelines. There are two ways that Performance Requirements express what they want; that is by using either:
The majority of Performance Requirements are expressed in qualitative terms. This means that requirements are described using words. An example would be Performance Requirement FP1.2. Most Performance Requirements cover a range of buildings, a range of building characteristics and a range of occupant characteristics and need to be sufficiently broad to allow a range of Alternative Solutions to be assessed against their content. Therefore, it is generally impracticable to instil quantified criteria that are sufficiently broad to cover all reasonable design options. In such instances, it is best to not include any data and allow individual certifiers to adjudicate on Alternative Solutions that address the specific characteristics of a specific building. Additionally, incorporating quantified values within Performance Requirements means all Alternative Solutions must at least comply with those values, which, as outlined above, may not be suitable for all projects. While various methods may be used to achieve compliance, the specified value remains a mandatory criterion.

Level of fire resistance required for the construction of various medium rise buildings is determined.
Activity Assessment Methods 1. Carry out an inspection of one of the buildings within your work environment. Identify the building and the building classification. 2. Check the building for compliance with passive and active fire protection and assess it against a checklist (either one your work utilises or one you have created which complies with the BCA requirements).
Level of fire resistance required for the construction of various medium rise buildings is determined and check of existing buildings for compliance with passive and active fire protection requirements is carried out in accordance with BCA requirements.
Fire Resistance
The Fire Code Reform Research Program in 1994 was the catalyst to then support the Australian Building Codes Board to ensure that all buildings have forms of fire resistant materials utilised within their construction in order that loss of life is diminished. Codes applicable CO113 - The Objective of this Section is to a) safeguard people from illness or injury due to a fire in a building; and b) safeguard occupants from illness or injury while evacuating a building during a fire; and c) facilitate the activities of emergency services personnel; and d) avoid the spread of fire between buildings; and e) protect other property from physical damage caused by structural failure of a building as a result of fire.

Fire resistance is now required for the construction of all classes of buildings. It is unfortunate that a number of fire tragedies have led to this code being required, including the Victorian Fires in recent years. ABCB suggest that in extreme weather conditions, a fire front can approach, in two to three minutes. Temperatures can escalate rapidly to 1200C. The effect of these extreme temperatures on a roof and, equally important, the underlying support structure have been unknown until fairly recently. Tests now clearly indicate that even after the fire front has passed, combustibles like timber framing contain residual heat which can continue to grow. In turn, even after considerable time, ignition can then occur within roof spaces and wall cavities, with unsuspected and frequently tragic results.14Each class of building now has a requirement for fire resistance. Bradford Insulation 15suggest improvements to fire safety as well as Alternative Solutions for the Deemed to Satisfy requirements. AS 3959 provides a method of assessing the bushfire risk of a site by categorising the terrain including the slope and type of vegetation present. The categories of bushfire attack are: low medium high extreme.
Find and read the Fire Safety BCA codes and guidelines for medium size buildings. Outline the codes applicable for the level of fire resistance needed for a project you are currently working on or have access to.

In a Class 5 building the objective is to limit the size of any fire in the building by limiting the floor area and volume of the fire compartment, and to limit fire spread between different building classifications or uses. The purpose of this objective is to minimise the potential fire size as well as to ensure that occupants have sufficient time to evacuate a building in an emergency. Different office tenancies within the building do not necessarily need to have fire separation between them. To achieve this objective elements of construction are required to achieve a certain fire resistance level and a critical aspect of construction is to ensure that construction joints and penetrations for services are adequately sealed.
Using materials that are less likely to burn to minimise the likelihood of fire spreading as well as the generation of smoke and toxic gases.
This objective is achieved by ensuring materials satisfy required early fire hazard indices, or are non-combustible. This is of critical importance in a fire isolated stairway or passageway, which are relied upon in an emergency by occupants seeking egress from the building as well as for fire brigade intervention.
Building requirements
To minimise the spread of fire, fire growth as well as safety of occupants and emergency personnel in the event of a fire a building must be constructed so as to satisfy the requirements of:

Providing evidence that the form of construction satisfies the BCA; Using a Verification Method as set out in the BCA such as CV1 & CV2 to avoid spread of fire between buildings; Comparison with the Deemed-to-Satisfy provisions Expert judgement
If the insulation is required as part of a building element system requiring a fire resistance level (FRL) Whether the product is combustible The products early fire hazard properties; Which product to use in which specific situation
It is critical to understand that no single product can be used in all situations. Each product has its own performance characteristics in fire situation. Clause A2.2 of the BCA provides the methodology for determining the suitability of a particular material or form of construction. Specification A2.3 of the BCA sets out the procedures for determining the FRL of building elements and Specification A 2.4 of the BCA sets out the procedures for establishing a materials fire hazard properties. Therefore to demonstrate that a product such as insulation or sarking is suitable to be used in a building it would have to have been tested by a registered testing authority and have some form of certification or accreditation, otherwise the installer will not be able to demonstrate that the product satisfies the requirements of the BCA. Consequently the designer must familiarise themselves with the manufactures specification to ensure that the product will perform as it was tested to ensure that the work will satisfy the requirements of the BCA.

The Fire Resistance Level (FRL) relates to the period in minutes that a system will resist the effects of fire with respect to the following criteria; Structural adequacy where the system will still maintain its design load Integrity where the system will not allow fire to pass Insulation where the system insulates against heat passing through the total configuration. The FRLs are expressed as Structural adequacy/ Integrity/ Insulation and are shown in minutes eg 60/60/60. Where a dash is used, eg -/60/60 this means the FRL does not require a level for this property, being Structural Adequacy in this case.
