This session at ARBS will present an overview of proposed changes to the next edition of the National Construction Code (NCC).
The NCC sets the minimum required level for the safety, health, amenity, accessibility and sustainability of buildings.
Two speakers will provide updates to NCC2025 and AS1668.2.
The first speaker will be Brett Fairweather, a mechanical engineering consultant at It’s Engineered.
Fairweather’s practical knowledge of HVAC codes and standards has developed through his voluntary roles in technical committees responsible for AS 1668.1 (Fire and Smoke Control), AS 1668.2 (Mechanical ventilation in buildings) and AS 1668.4 (Natural ventilation of buildings).
The second speaker is Erica Kenna, assistant manager, Policy and Analysis (Energy Efficiency) at the Australian Building Codes Board.
Kenna is an energy efficiency specialist with over 20 years experience in energy policy and working as a consultant delivering energy ratings, audits, new building design reviews for NABERS Commitment Agreements, and energy efficiency upgrade projects.
The ARBS Exhibition will be held in Sydney from 28-30 May, 2024.
