REGISTERED BUILDING PRACTITIONERS such as myself are being given more recognition by the Building Commission Victoria. Hence the new logo shown elsewhere.
Please
contact the Building Practitioners Board at the BCV if you are unsure
whether the certifier you are about to use is registered. This problem
commonly arises in rural areas where there are some inspectors and
testers that are not registered with the BCV or listed by the Australian
Fire Safety Practitioners Accreditation Board.
A current list is downloadable from the National Fire Industry Association web site - www.nfia.com.au under Links.
REMEMBER:
If
your fire system is not certified or tested by a Registered Building
Practitioner or AFSPAB accredited person, the certification/test may be
rejected by the owners Building Surveyor.
NOTE:
BCV registration is recognised now in Tasmania and Northern Territory
but as yet we have not come to any agreement with the BSA in Queensland
or the BPB in New South Wales.
