Specification 33 Additional requirements

This Specification contains requirements that must be complied with in addition to the modelling requirements of J1V1, J1V2, J1V3 and J1V5.

To clarify that the specification contains additional requirements to the modelling provisions under J1V1, J1V2, J1V3 and J1V5 that must be carried out.

In addition to the modelling requirements for J1V1, J1V2, J1V3 and J1V5, a building must comply with—

  1. for general thermal construction, J4D3; and
  2. for floor edge insulation, J4D7(2) and J4D7(3); and
  3. for building sealing, J1V4 or J5; and
  4. for deactivation, control and insulation of air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation systems—
    1. J6D3(1)(a); and
    2. J6D3(1)(b)(i); and
    3. J6D3(1)(d); and
    4. J6D3(1)(f); and
    5. J6D3(2); and
    6. J6D3(3); and
    7. J6D4(2); and
    8. J6D4(4); and
    9. J6D5; and
    10. J6D6; and
    11. J6D9; and
  5. for testing package air-conditioning equipment not less than 65 kWr, AS/NZS 3823.1.2 at test condition T1; and
  6. for testing a refrigeration chiller, AHRI 551/591; and
  7. for interior artificial lighting and power control, J7D4; and
  8. for interior decorative and display lighting, J7D5; and
  9. for artificial lighting around the exterior of a building, J7D6; and
  10. for boiling water and chilled water storage units, J7D7; and
  11. for deactivation of swimming pool heating and pumping, J8D3(2)(b) and J8D3(3); and
  12. for deactivation of spa pool heating and pumping, J8D4(2)(b) and J8D4(3); and
  13. for facilities for energy monitoring, Part J9; and
  14. for deactivation of fixed outdoor space heating appliances, clause J6D10(3).

To prescribe those Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions and referenced documents that need to be complied with in addition to the modelling requirements of J1V1, J1V2, J1V3 and J1V5.

This clause lists requirements from the Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions and referenced documents which must be complied with in addition to the necessary modelling. This is to overcome limitations in the modelling process by ensuring buildings designed under J1V1, J1V2, J1V3 and J1V5 cover the same range of energy efficiency attributes as the Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions. For example, the standard of installing insulation is covered in S33C2(a) because it is not specifically addressed through modelling alone.

Where not included in the building energy simulation to satisfy J1V2(1), compliance must be achieved with—

  1. for heating, cooling and ventilation equipment outside the scope of the Green Star model, Part J6; and
  2. for artificial lighting outside the scope of the Green Star model, Part J7.

To prescribe those Deemed-to-Satisfy Provisions that need to be complied with in addition to the modelling requirements of J1V2(1).
