I'm curious since 5.6m is the standard double garage size for our builder and one would think that they would be meeting the Building Code of Australia Fiona edited to add - my mistake, I just checked our plans - the standard double garage is 5.5 x 5.5 on our plans Re: Why!!! 30Mar 28, 2008 10:12 pm I agree with your Homereview - and I thank-you for putting it to me blunty - you make perfect sense and I think I was trying to rush things along instead of waiting for the perfect block.
DH has had a firm talk to me and we are just going to wait and see what comes to us...we will wait for the right sized block - no changing on plans! Thank-you again for all your feedback Re: Why!!! 31Mar 28, 2008 10:31 pm Cheers haywgl
You will need to be careful with that design when doing a knockdown/rebuild in an established area, since the upper windows face the sides. My current job, which is finish at the end of next week, involves assessment of development applications for houses. So this sort of stuff is right in my area of knowledge.

So do you mean we will probably need to use obscure glass on th windows facing outwards due to privacy issues? I really didn't want to have to use that !! Do you think it would be possible to move the windows in bedroom 3 and 4 to face the back of the house? I think the wardrobe in bedroom 4 would have to be moved to (maybe to the right of the door when you walk in) That way I would only need obscure glass on fewer windows... Re: Why!!! 33Mar 29, 2008 1:40 pm Haywgl you wouldn't need to use obscure glass, but you would probably be required to use 1.5 metre sill heights (in other words the bottom of the window sill is 1.5 metres above the finished floor level). Or alternatively external screening may be required for windows that face neighbours with sill heights less than 1.5 metres.
You can see what 1.5 metre sill heights look like in the Cremorne 41 display in Bedrooms 2 and 4 at Caroline Springs display. Having a closer look it appear 1.5 metre sill heights are standard in bedrooms 2 and 4. External screening would be advisable for the upstairs games room because a 1.5 metre sill hieght would sacrifice too much natural light. That sucks! Hope it all works out. Good to move away from steel anyway for all your reasons, but it's also thermally poor. 16 17999 Hi All, I just wanted to close this topic out with an update.
