Most newer #houses are #built on #concrete slabs, most older #homes are #built with a #timber floor using #bearers and #joists.

Commonly we are #adding #homeextensions to older #homes hence the timber #floor. Traditionally #Australian homes use #hardwood for the sub floor timbers, these days we most commonly use #engineered #timber like seen here. The engineered timber is straight with no #knots does not shrink, comes in long #lengths and are #termite #treated.

#Building #regulations in #Australia are more stringent than many may be aware.

#FlameZone

#Building #regulations in #Australia are more stringent than many may be aware.

One such example is #BAL rating or #bushfire #attack level. #Buildings are assessed at a certain bushfire #risk and given a #rating which designates the #standard of #construction #materials we have to use in in the #build in order to #resist a #fire

Seen in the photo here is a recent bushfire we had in south west #Sydney which threatened many #homes

The second picture is of a current #project of Spannenberg and Son at #Glenfield which was determined as #flame zone which is the highest #BAL rating, we have to use many unusual construction #methods and #materials designed to resist a fire, #noncombustible materials #insulation #plywood under the #roof #tiles and #shutters over the #windows plus much more.

Unfortunately this also adds to the cost of the build, something to look out for if you intend on building.
