Fire Engineering Assessment, Revision 01 DeltaCool, DeltaSecrectFix, DeltaTrim at 100 mm and 75 mm Fire Performance, Project No. 25367 25367-SFE-FEA-01-Delta Panel Fire Performance Page 11 3 PROJECT DETAILS 3.1 GENERAL Spectra Fire Engineers has been appointed by Delta Panels Pty Ltd to undertake a review of the Fire and Life Safety Provisions associated with the DeltaCool, DeltaSecrectFix, DeltaTrim at 100 mm and 75 mm Fire Performance. This document relates only the identified NCC DtS Departures. All other aspects of the design are required to be in accordance with the NCC DtS provisions except where modified by the Fire Engineering Assessment contained herein, or, where agreed by Spectra Fire Engineers, modified by an existing Fire Engineering Assessment. Where a fire engineering assessment is proposed to meet a NCC Performance Requirement, the assessment method is in accordance with the various assessment methods as defined in NCC 2022 Volume 1. This section of our report provides background to assist the stakeholders’ understanding of how, when following the available assessment methods, the relevant NCC Performance Requirements can be achieved. 3.2 FIRE ENGINEERING OBJECTIVES The Fire Engineering Assessments are developed to meet the Fire Safety Objectives of the NCC (i.e. to protect the lives of the building occupants, facilitate Fire Brigade intervention in the event of an emergency, and protect adjacent property from the spread of fire and physical damage caused by structural failure [1]). For a detailed description of compliance with the NCC, see Appendix B – Compliance with NCC Requirements. 3.2.1 Fire Engineering Assessment (FEA) The Fire Engineering Assessment objectives are to define the scope of work for the performance-based analysis, the technical basis for analysis, and methodology such that the relevant NCC Performance Requirements can be demonstrated. 3.3 APPLICABLE LEGISLATION AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK The following Regulatory Framework is applicable: - Queensland Building Act, 1975 and subsequent amendments - Queensland Building Fire Safety Regulation, 2008 and subsequent amendments - Queensland Fire and Emergency Services Act, 1990 and subsequent amendments - Queensland Work Health and Safety Act, 2011 and subsequent amendments - Queensland Building Regulations, 2021 and subsequent amendments - National Construction Code (NCC) 2022 Volume 1, Building Code of Australia (BCA) Class 2 to Class 9 Buildings The Fire Engineering Assessment is to be undertaken using a variety or combination of assessment methods. These are defined in Clause A2G2 of the NCC. The relevant Performance Requirements are determined in accordance with Clause A2G4(3) of the NCC.
