BCA Section J, JV3 Assessments/ReportsThe Building Code of Australia (BCA) is 'a uniform set of technical provisions for the design and construction of buildings and other structures throughout Australia whilst allowing for variations in climate and geological or geographic conditions'.Buildings which are required to satisfy the requirements of the BCA must meet the requirements of the BCA Section J for energy efficiency and the objective is 'to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by efficiently using less energy'.Section J reports are required for commercial buildings (Class 3 to 9) as part of the Development Application process to demonstrate the ability of the design to comply with the BCA.AENEC can carry out Section J and JV3 Assessments and Compliance reporting for commercial developers and architects throughout Australia.

In NSW, a BASIX Certificate is required for all new homes and multi-unit projects and most alterations and additions. In other states, a NatHERS certification is, in most cases what is required.The aim is to make buildings meet the minimum performance standards by using the most economical in terms of thermal performance materials/components and based on the design parameters. If needed, recommendations for adjustments of materials/components in order to achieve the desirable result will be made. That is why you need to use our professional service. As we do assessments day in and day out, we have the required experience and we will ensure that you will not be out of pocket with unnecessary provisions and technical solutions.You can obtain a quotation by emailing the plans of your project.

The 99 will challenge you to think about the state of our world socially, economically and environmentally and in fact will challenge you to rethink about so many aspects that you currently perceive as normal. In fact, it demonstrates that these three key factors are intimately connected. But much more than that.The 99 encourages readers to envision a better world and, through their own actions, help to bring about much-needed change. - Sharon Moore (editor of 99).The book presents one man’s philosophy on life, while at the same time exposing and analyzing the dysfunction that has developed at many levels in modern western society. At its heart is a key understanding: that the way we live is based on a misguided belief that the earth has infinite resources there for our taking. Central to the book’s message is its analysis of our economic-growth-at-any-cost way of life and the dominance of mega-corporations, to the detriment of our health and well-being and that of the very earth, air and water we depend on. The insights the author gained while growing up in Greece enable him to clearly see the contrasts between that simpler way of life, not all that long ago, and the unnecessary complexity of today’s modern lifestyle, especially in cities, where most of us live. By touring through many aspects of our society, culture and governance the book encourages readers to think about the connections between our actions and decisions, their consequences, and the wider economic and governmental context in which our lives are embedded.After fourteen chapters of analysis and passionate argument, the penultimate chapter presents 99 choices, or perhaps challenges. In three sections – visionary, personal level solutions, and systemic rule-based changes – the 99 points aim to embolden people to take control of their lives, to be part of the change that must happen, for the future of our species and our planet.

ASBA AccreditedAustralian Energy Efficiency Consulting (AENEC) is a firm where thermal performance of buildings is being optimised while meeting all regulatory requirements. The latest software (AccuRate) is used to calculate all heating and cooling loads and it allows for a fully customised analysis of each building.AENEC will:1. Optimise the energy efficiency of any dwelling in the initial stages of design.2. Indicate areas that perform poorly in the design.3. Advise you of the available measures needed to be taken to maximise the thermal performance of the design.4. Once the drawings are modified as per recommendations AENEC will provide a certificate, indicating star rating and/or the predicted heating and cooling loads in MJ/m2/annum, depending on the State the dwelling is located.

Liaising with members and committee peers about various issues and ways to improve sustainability of NSW homes.

I was located in Greece and Proodeftiki specialised in the installation of rain water gutters and home renovations and restorations. In addition I was involved with structural steel work. The company experienced very good growth since day one. The company was sold.

Chess Flameproof is a division of Chess Engineering. We specialise in flameproofing - the conversion of mobile materials handling equipment for use in hazardous areas.Chess Engineering has been involved in this activity since the early 1970s and has gained an enviable reputation for expertise, reliability and customer service in that time.We are located in Padstow, Sydney, New South Wales on our own site with over one hectare of undercover engineering capacity.Major activities include: * Custom Design of Flameproof Equipment * Engine Protection Systems * Equipment Overhauls * Exhaust Emission Control * Flameproof Kits * Flameproofing Materials Handling Equipment * Forklift Attachments * Speed Limiters and Controllers
