Bushfire Hazard Management
for Tasmanian Builds

Pre-construction is the time to assess and minimise risks for your build and in Tasmania that will often mean a bushfire hazard assessment. Our consulting engineer geologist performs this assessment to rate the Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) for your build and the risk mitigations to take by preparing a Bushfire Hazard Management Plan (BHMP). This final documentation prepared to meet Tasmanian requirements, gives your build the preparation and protection for peace of mind.

Bushfire Attack Level

Our Bushfire Hazard Practitioner brings Tasmanian knowledge and experience to assess your building site. If your project requires the determination of a BAL (Bushfire Attack Level), a Bushfire Hazard Assessment Report will document potential exposure to ember attack, radiant heat and direct flame contact.
