AGM questions 2021
This document details the questions asked at the 2021 Engineers Australia Annual General Meeting and the answers provided.
Guide on the fire safety verification method
This guide is designed to assist professional fire safety engineers, project certifiers, design teams, approval authorities and stakeholders with the practical and appropriate use of the Fire Safety Verification Method (FSVM) as contained in Schedule 7 of the National Construction Code, Volume 1, Building Code of Australia 2019, Amendment 1 (NCC).
Facade and external wall fire safety design
The guide provides a fire risk assessment methodology for suitably qualified and competent professionals to determine the potential hazard of fire spread via the facade of existing buildings. It offers a pathway to deliver a risk assessment appropriate to the situation being assessed and enables a level of safety to be defined, from which the assessment goals can be set and agreed with building stakeholders.
Tenability criteria in building fires
This practice note has been prepared as a guide to practitioners on tenability criteria in building fires, for the purpose of enhancing consistency in the fire engineering industry.
Evaluation of engineering heritage
The purpose of this practice note is to provide engineers and others with essential background information on the assessment of the engineering heritage significance of an item or work.
Fire and life safety in existing buildings during construction
This practice note provides guidance for the development and implementation of the fire safety strategy where continued occupation of an existing building is permitted while construction or refurbishments works proceed.
Assessment of engineering heritage items
The purpose of this practice note is to provide engineers and others with a process for assessing engineering heritage significance.
Conservation of engineering heritage items
Design fires
This practice note is a supplement to the International fire engineering guidelines for fire safety engineers to derive design fires and design fire scenarios in a consistent manner.
Assessment and conservation of movable heritage
The purpose of this practice note is to provide engineers and others with essential background information on the assessment and conservation of a movable heritage item.
