This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required by senior building surveyors to develop an in-depth knowledge of the frameworks governing compliance requirements for all Building Code of Australia (BCA) defined classes and types of buildings, including all Type A buildings in classes 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. It requires an understanding of the range of legislation, regulations, codes and standards that must be applied to construction projects of differing BCA types and classes and in different geographic locations. It involves researching and interpreting compliance requirements relating to building surveying work and developing a knowledge bank and information system for use by the building surveying team that includes processes and checklists.The unit supports the work of private or municipal building surveyors who provide advisory code-consulting services or authorised statutory services relating to planning or building permit application assessment, or building audit and inspection services.Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit in some States. Relevant state and territory regulatory authorities should be consulted to confirm those requirements.
