Topic: Global Building Safety

The International Code Council (ICC) is a global building safety solutions provider. The building safety solutions it offers include product testing/inspection/certification, accreditation, technology, training, and credentialing. 

The ICC is bringing its diverse services, skills and experience to Australia and New Zealand, and Neil Savery, Managing Director of ICC Oceania P/L, will provide an insight into how the approaches of the ICC can help promote building safety and provide practical solutions for practitioners who work in the building sector.

 

7.45pm-8.05pm: 

Presenter: Peter McLennan, ABCB

Topic: Identifying Backflow Hazards

Identifying the level of a backflow hazard is one of the most contentious areas for equipment manufacturers, designers and installers of plumbing systems. NCC 2022 in Specification 41 sets out an extensive list of cross-connection hazards and corresponding hazard ratings, but what if an installation is not listed?

The NCC now includes a hazard risk assessment tool aimed at introducing consistency when identifying what level of zone or individual backflow hazard exists and Peter McLennan will be joining us to run through all aspects of the tool and provide you with an example of how it can be used.

 

8.15pm-8.30pm: Socialising 

A chance to catch up with others in the industry.
