(ii)
The
measures contained in the building are inadequate to protect persons using the

or to restrict the spread of fire from the building to other buildings nearby,
it is determined that the whole building must be brought into total conformity
with the Building Code of Australia.
(b) If compliance with (a) above cannot be
achieved through the deemed-to-satisfy pathway, a performance solution in
accordance with the BCA must be prepared and submitted to the Registered
Certifier illustrating how the relevant performance provisions are to be
satisfied prior to the issuing of a construction certificate.
(a) Fire resistance - Part C1;
(b) Fire resistance and stability – Part C2;
(c) Compartmentation and separation - Part C3;
