This means we now have a 22 metre firebreak between the bush and the house. The house is now approx 40 squares and it's 1/2 acre block. We are removing 18 gum trees but this didn't reduce BAL at all. We are currently waiting on construction certificate and hope to start just after Easter. It's been a 15 month process to get to this stage.... 11/11/13- dep paid 4/4/14- settlement Feb '15- DA app 6/8/15- CC site works begin 19/8/15- Formwork 25/8/15- slab 3/9/15- elect. appt 13/10/15 - frame started 19/10- bricks started 31/10 - roof done Re: BAL Bushfire Attack Level Ratings - anyone with experien 48Feb 21, 2016 10:10 am My advice is to get a complete all inclusive service that includes, design, simulations, engineering and all certificates.. ie, AS & NCC Code compliance, Energy, Structurals and BAL.etc.etc you will definitely save on money, time, less stress, inspection costs in the long term..goodluck Designer,Engineer (Civil,Const & Envir),Builder,Concrete & Masonry Contract.Struct Repairs 3 4586 Building Standards; Getting It Right!
