Build Over Council Services or Asset (BOS/BOA)
Keeping the council pipe network protected from damage and accessible for maintenance is incredibly important. So if you are planning work near or above the council pipes, you’ll need to get approval first. This can be done as part of a building application.
According to the Queensland Development Code (QDC) MP 1.4, to ensure building work for a building or structure on a lot that contains, or is adjacent to a lot that contains, relevant infrastructure is carried out so-
-
(a) It does not adversely affect the operation of the infrastructure or place any load on it; and
-
(b) When completed, it:
-
(i) Does not prevent the relevant service provider from gaining access to the infrastructure for the purpose of inspecting, maintaining or replacing the infrastructure; and
-
(ii) Allows any gas that builds up in the infrastructure to escape in a way that ensures individuals in close proximity to a maintenance cover for the infrastructure are not harmed by the gas.
-
SNG Engineers ensure that the foundation design meets the local council requirements and Queensland Development Code for Build over Council Services, Sewer/Stormwater/Asset (BOS or BOA) Design.
