Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games

Innova Services Australia was fortunate to be engaged as part of the fire safety engineering project for the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. It saw us work on 19 different buildings and centres to bring them up to the relevant building codes in compliance with Queensland legislation.

Client Needs

The client needed to ensure each Games venue was compliant with the BCA within the legislation of the Major Events Act.

  • To maintain the proposed capacities of each Games venue.
  • Development of cost-effective fire engineering strategies to ensure we minimised capital costs in the building works.
  • Development of fire engineering strategies reliant on management and operational solutions, rather than building works.

Key Points

  • Review of the overlay works and identified variations to the DTS provisions of the BCA.
  • Development of fire safety strategy and performance solutions including crowd and smoke modelling to safeguard life safety.
  • Liaison with the Queensland Fire and Emergency Service (QFES), Certifier, Client and design team during design, construction and operation.
  • Oversight of construction work to ensure fire safety requirements had been suitably implemented.
