BCA report for an aged care building (Class 9c)

Class 9c is a residential care building: aged care where residents need physical help to evacuate. Because residents rely on staff to get out, the NCC requires sprinklers, smoke compartments, and fire and smoke doors, on top of full access provisions. A certifier scopes it and replies with a fixed price inside a business day.

Questions

Do alterations to an existing aged care building need a full report?

Usually the report covers the altered part and what the alteration affects, such as smoke compartments and exits. Measured drawings of the existing building are needed; a certifier scopes the extent.

What drawings do you need?

Site plan, floor plans, elevations and sections as PDF. For alterations, as-built drawings of the existing building as well.

Do you inspect the site?

No. The report is prepared from the drawings; for an existing building, measured drawings of the building as it stands are part of the set.
