The following information is provided as guidance for building development applications where the design involves fire safety related performance solutions, and the development is assessable as building work under the Building Act 1975 (Qld).
Building development applications that involve performance solutions will have common requirements and process and we have them identified below as: General advice and guidance for performance solutions.
The general advice and guidance for performance solutions will be complementary to the specific guidance for performance solutions, that is often identified by the applicable building codes, the code sections, parts and their clauses. We have detailed specific advice and guidance for these codes as the advice guides for NCC and QDC.
We have developed performance solution position statements to supplement our general and code specific guidance and advice, and to explain the reasoning and importance for particular positions that we hold.
