Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about building compliance, accessibility consulting, NCC requirements, and performance solutions.
What does a BCA consultant do?
A BCA consultant assesses building designs and developments against the National Construction Code (NCC) and Building Code of Australia requirements. They identify compliance issues, provide technical advice, and assist project teams throughout the design, approval, and construction stages.
What is an access consultant?
An access consultant provides advice on accessibility requirements within the built environment. They assess developments against disability access standards, accessibility legislation, and relevant building code requirements to support inclusive, compliant design outcomes.
When should an access consultant be engaged?
Access consultants should ideally be engaged during the concept design stage. Early involvement helps identify accessibility risks, reduce redesign requirements, and support smoother approval processes.
What is NCC compliance?
NCC compliance means a building or development satisfies the requirements of the National Construction Code, including safety, health, amenity, accessibility, and performance requirements.
What is the difference between BCA compliance and DDA compliance?
BCA compliance focuses on meeting building code requirements under the National Construction Code. DDA compliance focuses on providing equitable access and reducing discrimination under disability legislation. Many projects require consideration of both.
What are performance solutions?
Performance solutions are alternative compliance pathways that demonstrate a building meets NCC performance requirements without relying solely on prescriptive code provisions.
What industries require building compliance consulting?
Building compliance consulting is commonly required across residential, commercial, healthcare, education, government, aged care, hospitality, industrial and mixed-use developments.
Do you provide consulting services across Australia?
Yes. AI Consultancy provides building regulation and access consulting services for projects throughout Australia, with the ability to support clients remotely and through site visits where required.
What is a building compliance audit?
A building compliance audit assesses an existing building against relevant building codes, accessibility requirements, and other regulatory requirements to identify compliance gaps and potential risks.
What is an SDA assessment?
An SDA assessment evaluates Specialist Disability Accommodation developments against applicable accessibility and design requirements, helping support compliance within NDIS housing projects.
