Section J Reports Wollongong

There are certain things that those planning new buildings will always have to think about. Drawing up practicable plans, ensuring that everything is structurally sound and bringing together a team of professionals to help with the build are just some of the things that need to be taken care of.

But, in the modern age, there is something else that also needs to be carefully considered.

Think you need a Section J Report in Wollongong?

The long-term sustainability and environmental effects of the project and its resultant structure are things that those planning construction work are now legally obliged to take note of – and failure to do so can result in serious trouble.

When it comes to environmental regulations, the BCA Part J is one of the most significant. It aims to ensure that the materials used in constructing a new building are as sustainable and environmentally friendly as possible, and that the building’s plans and designs are drawn up with the health of the environment in mind.

Section J Compliance

The BCA Part J is made up of eight distinct categories; and, in order to be considered compliant with the regulations, a building plan must be ‘deemed to satisfy’ all eight of the separate categories.

The categories are:

1. Fabric performance of the ceiling and roof, floors and external walls
2. External glazing
3. Building sealing
4. Air movement by natural ventilation/ceiling fans etc.
5. Heating, air-condition and ventilation systems
6. Artificial lighting
7. Hot water and swimming pool/spa water
8. Facilities for monitoring energy use and access for maintenance

Once your plans are in compliance with the regulations of the above categories, your Section J compliance will be recognised in the form of a BCA Section J compliance report.
