Construction Certificates (CC)
A Construction Certificate confirms that detailed architectural and structural drawings comply with the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and all conditions of your existing development consent (DA or CDC). It is legally required before any physical construction or groundworks can begin on site.
When is it required? Apply once development consent is granted by your local council, and receive approval before machinery or trades commence work on site.
CertifiBuild's accredited certifiers assess the architectural and structural plans, typically obtained by the builder or property owner once development consent (DA or CDC) has been granted and before any construction work begins.
Detailed architectural working drawings, room layouts, fire separations, window schedules, and access compliance reviewed against approved DA plans.
Footing designs, slab specifications, steel framing, retaining walls, and civil stormwater computations verified by qualified engineers.
Full technical alignment with the Building Code of Australia (NCC Class 1 and 10), energy efficiency (BASIX), bushfire, and acoustic standards.
Strict verification that every pre-construction condition in your council DA consent or Complying Development Certificate has been fully satisfied.
