Project Snapshot
CCC Engineering was engaged to deliver multi-discipline building services design for a Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) dwelling in Dubbo, regional NSW. The NCC Class 3 development required mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic engineering design suitable for high physical support occupants, with compliance documentation for a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) approval pathway.
This project demonstrates CCC Engineering's ability to service clients across regional NSW, delivering the same standard of engineering design and compliance documentation regardless of location. The SDA classification introduced specific requirements for accessibility, safety systems, and environmental comfort that go beyond standard residential design.
Our Role
- Mechanical services design including HVAC for accessible dwelling
- Electrical engineering design and maximum demand calculations
- Hydraulic engineering design (water supply and sanitary drainage)
- Section J energy efficiency compliance
- NCC 2025 compliance documentation for CDC pathway
- Coordination with hydraulic sub-consultant (MAS Building Hydraulics)
- Design certification across all disciplines
Challenges & Solutions
Challenge
NCC Class 3 SDA requirements for high physical support occupants
Solution
Designed services systems to meet both NCC Class 3 requirements and NDIS SDA Design Standards for high physical support
Challenge
Regional location requiring remote coordination
Solution
Full design and documentation delivered remotely with clear communication and coordination with the builder and sub-consultants
Challenge
CDC pathway requiring comprehensive compliance documentation
Solution
Prepared complete design certification package addressing all CDC compliance requirements across three engineering disciplines
Results
- Compliant multi-discipline design for SDA dwelling
- CDC-ready documentation delivered within programme
- Accessible and comfortable environment for high physical support occupants
- Successful remote delivery to regional NSW
- Project generated referral work for additional SDA dwelling nearby
