Issue Date: April 2024
This unit of competency supports the access consulting service of working with building development teams to ensure the provision of access for people with disabilities.
This unit specifies the competency required to work with building development teams to ensure that the completed project provides adequate access for people with disabilities. In addition to the project architect, development teams may include consultants from a range of disciplines including engineering, fire engineering, workplace health and safety, landscape architects as well as access consultants.
In order to work effectively in development teams, access consultants must have good communication and interpersonal skills.
Access consultants contribute their knowledge of the access requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) Premises Standard, the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and relevant Australian standards to the development team processes. These processes include the design brief, the concept design, working drawings, tender documentation (e.g. specifications), contract documentation and administration services.
