Your company would like to construct the Ferguson Ave Project using a timber frame because it is a quicker and cheaper alternative to reinforced concrete.

You have been asked to check the requirements of the BCA to determine if this timber framed construction method can be used without having to go through the performance solution process

Question

With reference to the BCA2019 Volume 1 Specification C1.1

Is it allowable under the Deemed to Satisfy Solutions or would a performance solution be required to build this structure building with timber framing?
