Stuck with a compliance issue where you just can’t tick every DTS box? You don’t always need to change the design, just the path. Brentnall BCA builds logical, NCC-aligned solutions without compromising your intent.
Get practical, clause-by-clause support with Brentnall BCA. We offer a 360° design compliance assessment, built to help your team meet the NCC without delays or surprises.
We don’t just draft a Performance Solution. We give you exactly what a certifier needs to say “yes” without dragging your project into limbo.
We start by identifying where your design hits a DTS wall, and what specific BCA intent it’s still achieving anyway.
We check the proposal against the Performance Requirements & build a clause-by-clause logic path that stacks up under scrutiny.
We write a report that explains your solution in plain terms, ready for council or certifier review.
We’ve seen how certifiers respond to Performance Solutions, and where they stall. We pre-empt the usual friction points so your report doesn’t end up in review limbo.
We don’t ask you to start again. We work with your existing drawings to identify what’s already doing the job, even if it doesn’t tick every DTS box on paper.
We don’t cut corners or stretch the rules. We build Performance Solutions that follow NCC structure clause by clause, so they hold up under scrutiny and get approved faster.
If the DTS path doesn’t apply to your design, a Performance Solution is your only other NCC-compliant option.
Yes, if the solution meets the NCC intent and uses recognised Assessment Methods, it is a valid path to approval.
Not always. Performance Solutions outside fire or energy require a broader BCA understanding beyond specialist scope
Most straightforward Performance Solutions can be scoped and documented within 1–2 weeks, depending on project complexity.
If the Assessment Method is weak or unclear, rejection is possible. Brentnall BCA uses robust justification to reduce this risk.
