9 Case Study: Our Building Project: refurbish old building as exemplar of sustainability

10 Case Study: Our Building Owner engaged: Top architect, engineers etc Top private-sector building surveyor to issue building permits Top builder

11 Case Study: Our Building Building work complete Tenants in occupation Windows leaking Discover walls not fire resistive as drawings Find many other fire-regulatory problems

12 Case Study: Our Building Owner Loses Confidence in Team Owner not prepared to accept dispensations provided by his (private sector) team

13 Case Study: Our Building Owner Loses Confidence in Team Owner not prepared to accept dispensations provided by his (private sector) team Insurers involved Legions of lawyers

14 Victoria s Building Regulatory System Building Act Permits State Government to create Building Regulations

15 Victoria s Building Regulatory System Building Act Building Regulations Brings in Building Code of Australia

16 Victoria s Building Regulatory System Building Act Building Regulations Building Code of Australia Performance Requirements (You must achieve this) Deemed-to-satisfy provisions (If you do this, then you re OK)

17 Victoria s Building Regulatory System Building Act Permits State Government to create Building Regulations Creates Building Appeals Board BAB

18 Building Appeals Board Senior members of relevant professions Meets weekly Can change any building regulation for a particular building Powerful Well respected

19 Building Appeals Board Also has obligations under section 160A of Building Act....determine that a particular design.... complies with the Act must consider and determine.... any matter referred.... to it

20 Building Appeals Board So section 160A provides an avenue for resolving disagreements such as does this Performance Based design provide compliance with BCA Performance Requirements? With unambiguous authority

21 Our Building d2s non-conformities Some 20 issues. Listed in a large table. Column headings: Issue Relevant BCA Performance Requirement Relevant BCA d2s Provision Proposed Work Request to BAB

22 Our Building d2s non-conformities 20 d2s issues Consider here 1 set of issues: Our building too close to land title boundary (if try to comply with d2s provisions) Because of windows and vents in South wall

23 Adjoining Apartment Building Built 1995 modern standards So proper fire separation between apartments So any single fire in only one apartment 82 apartments Each apartment individually owned

24 Adjoining Building Heat Flux to Our Building PB Analysis many cases using FireCalc program From - fire through roof - fire from dormer window - fire from balcony To - each vent in our South wall - each window in our South wall

25

26 Adjoining Building Heat Flux to Our Building Range 3.7 to 19.1 kw/m2 So what? What s permissible?

27 Adjoining Building Heat Flux to Our Building Analyse BCA verification method CV2 Deduce that up to 20 kw/m2 is OK 20 > 19.1 kw/m2 Hooray!

28 Adjoining Building Heat Flux - Longevity of Acceptability? What if in the future Apartment Building is replaced with building closer to boundary? Almost inconceivable within foreseeable future because would need agreement of all 82 owners of apartments.

29 Yes: BAB Approved (almost) All Issues! BAB approved Hooray! Community saved $$,$$$,$$$ - Hooray!

30 Our Building Why PB so Successful? Building Act good re BAB No regulations can ever be right for all circumstances So existence of BAB essential Sec 160A essential as ultimate arbiter of PB issues Sec 161 important - BAB cannot say it s too difficult to decide!

31 Our Building Why PB so Successful? Nature of BAB Wide ranging powers High reputation High-powered technical members Handles applications in timely fashion weeks not years!

32 Our Building Why PB so Successful? All parties respected BAB authority (bypassed lack of trust between owner and other parties) All parties agreed to fund very good applications to BAB

33 Do You Have a Body like the BAB? Victoria's Building Act is very far from perfect But in relation to the BAB, it s very good How does your jurisdiction compare?
