What is Suitable Access?

It might seem obvious that suitable access means different things for different projects. We need to establish the extent of access required for your project so that our advice is targeted at achieving your outcomes. In short, suitable access is access that is suitable to your requirements. Some examples of four client bases are:

  1. Oftentimes, this means regard to the Disability Discrimination Act and the Access to Premises Standards, as well as its Access Code. The Access Code has been incorporated, in general, into the National Construction Code (BCA). Usually, our clients consisting of builders, architects, designers and developers, are looking for an Access Report assessment which is required by the Council or Consent Authority for the purpose of obtaining a Development Consent.
  2. Other times, it is a requirement of a client's express design criteria, which must be achieved to satisfy the explicit needs of the end-user.
  3. Occasionally, we are involved, along with occupational therapists and other specialists in the medical field, to devise a custom solution for a particular individual, or groups of individuals.
  4. Also occasionally, we are designing for a family directly with their own full appreciation of the access requirements and who wish to be advised on available solutions.
  5. Rarely, an alternative solution is being sought to satisfy the conditions of approval for Construction Consent.
  6. Some clients want assistance in ensuring that the construction details meet the standards, and require a detailed audit of Construction documents prior to or during construction. Later, obtaining our certification of compliance upon completion of the building work.
  7. Some clients require consideration for a combination of a number of the above scenarios.
