Question 1
Develop a plan to demolish the existing dwelling shown on the site plan in accordance with the
legislative and planning requirements and at all times utilizing safe work practices. The
dwelling will have been constructed from some building materials containing bonded asbestos.
In your plan, list the relevant Acts, Australian Standards and Codes with which the processes
will need to comply. Note: This is not a sketch, but a set of steps outlining your approach. You
might include a sketch to indicate specific requirements of the demolition process.
This report essentially outlines all the necessary steps and proceduresrequired in carrying out the
demolition process. Thisis essential in restructuring and redeveloping the company into a mixed-
use development which is not limited to the car sports but extended to the new factory.However,
it is worth noting that the preliminary demolition plan forms the basis reference tool when
dealingand carryingout the operations on the ground. In essence, the document forms part and
parcel of the framework used in the demolition exercise and ensures that the activities are carried
out amicably and thus; do not affect the safety, health, environment as well as the traffic in the
long run. These operations not only conducted to protect the public environment but also
theneighbouring properties as a whole. Notably, this report mainly based on the preliminary but
will be developed and enhanced with the reviews on the design work (Chew, 2017). The
requirements in the demolition mainly carried out in stages as discussed below
Prior Risk Management in Demolition Work
Olympic designs are one of the essential and paramount duties which must be considered in the
demolition work to ensure that both the safety and health risks are taken into consideration and
their related impacts in the project asa whole. It should have the following elements and
considerations:
 Design an SWMS plan must be prepared in advance.
 Copy of register containing all the related works in line with the Layland Factory for the
asbestos must be preparedbefore the demolition work.
 Preferably, all the works Olympic design often carried out with the aim of ensuring that
the specialized expert removes asbestos present before the demolition activities
commerce.
It is importantto use the Olympic design to carriedout all thedemolition works as this will
ensure that all the necessary considerations are put into practice (Regulation 34-38).
Olympic design often utilised in developing a makeable approach for identifying the risk
hazardsrising from the project as well as used in the process of minimising these risks and
implementing the control measures for the process. Thus, ensuring that the developed approach
helps in coming up with a system which does not have negative impacts on the
environmentregarding safety and health.

BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION 3
1. Develop a Demolition Work Plan
2. Notification of the demolition work needs to be given to the relevant authority before the
work that is at least five days before the workcommences. This must follow the set
regulations under regulation 142. Some of the elementsincludedin the work mainly
incorporate
3. Plan for the structural demolition in line with the load bearing
4. The structuraland the building physical integrity and this must be approximately 6 metres or
higher in line with the height.
5. Demolition works should incorporate the load, and shifting machines in line with the
explosives and the works carried out on the makeable suspended floor.
6. Details included the makeable demolition notification are
7. Authorized individual details from the Olympic design and this include contact andname
8. Direct supervisor details including the name as well as the contact
9. Notice date
10. Demolition nature
11. Site address
12. Tasmegs
There are various functions which often discharged by the Olympic design and these include:
 Developing as well as reviewing the overall WHS for a management plan
 Ensuring that the SWMS documentations obtained before the construction works
associated with high risks commerces.
 Developing various channels for dealing with the work environment and these elements
include first aid, falls, emergency plan as wellas trafficmanagement.
Demolition Plan Design
Olympic design should have a makeable design and developed plan which will be used to carry
out the exercises regarding the excavation works and these class the following are taken into
consideration
 Developing approach for handling the waste in the construction
 Dilapidation Survey
 Preparing an approach for demolition management
 Having decisive excavation management approach
All the related works should be conducted with specific and must conform to the requirements
outlined in the EPA guidelines. Thus, the approach used in the demolition process has a reverse
approach sequential. It includes stripping out of the internal finishes as well as removing the
services from the structure such as the conduit pipes.
Setting Out
It will involve paying for the licence to obtain registration. This will help the surveyor in
identifying as well as pegging the required site boundaries, develop the footings check surveys
and verify location and the walls. Notably, it is important for the builder to obtain the certificate
of claim from a recommended surveyor before the setting out process commence. This is

BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION 4
important as it will stipulate that the claimed building is within the setting out. However, the
process must be conducted in line with the spelled out drawings and within the outlined site
boundaries. Notably, the building should be outside and should be fall under the protection by
the Heritage Act 1977 (NSW).
Additionally, it is important for the contractor to have an authorized expert to give guidelines at
the site in ensuring that the safety and health are not compromised during the demolition process,
however; the work mainly conducted as per the specifications and agreed methods used in the
process (Hubbard et al., 2015).
Removal of Tree Requirements
In this project, few plants are often required to be removed. The preference in the removal of
these trees mainly grounded on the Bayside Council governing and regulations of the Banksia.
Thus, the regulations must be followed to the latter and at all times not compromised in any way.
Some of the requirements in line with the trees removal include obtaining the permits as well as
filling the application form.
Hazard Control Measures
The imminent and approach in line with the hazard control is also another essential element and
parameter which one need to adhere to and follow strictly. Some of the hard control measures
put into consideration in this work include
 Measures for handling the chemical materials in line with the Regulation 49.
 Have competent expert to assist in the removal of lead related materials to avoid high
contamination risks.
 PPE should be given to the workers and precaution also incorporated in the work when
dealing with the Synthetic Mineral and Fibers insulations.
The sketch below shows the specifics requirements which should be considered when handling
the various demolition activities.
Protective Measures
There is need to prepare a decisive environment management plan for handling all the issues in
line with the environment and how their adverse impacts on the sustainability of the project.
Policy Formulation
The contractor need to be served with a policy document and regulations under with AS4801
which must comply with the work specifications in tended to be conducted by the person.
Notably, the sketch for the specific demolition works and requirements mainly shown in the
figure below

Question 2
From the project documentation, illustrate the loads the building will be subjected to
during its life. Prepare a simple sketch of a section passing through the centre of the
building, showing the structural elements of the building and the loads applied. Draw
arrows on the section to show the direction the load path will take to transfer the loads to
the foundation of the building. Your illustration(s) should deal with wind loads as well as
dead and live loads. Tip: Refer to AS1684.4 Fig 9.1
