Inadequate wall systems, poor construction, or a lack of awareness of the relevant fire performance requirements can result in non-compliance with the National Construction Code (NCC), which can have serious repercussions, such as expensive litigation and repairs. With new types of construction on the rise, it is timely to examine current fire compliance requirements, the methods to prove compliance, and how these relate to polymer formwork wall systems for internal and external walls.

Building with Polymer Formwork: A Guide to NCC Fire Compliance is a concise overview of the relevant fire performance requirements for Class 2 to 9 buildings and methods to prove compliance when specifying polymer formwork wall systems. Polymer formwork has emerged as an efficient and high-performing method of construction, but there are misconceptions about its performance in a fire event.

Committed to constant innovation, Dincel Structural Walling continues to solve the industry's permanent polymer formwork needs. A Dincel wall consists primarily of concrete, which is a safe and proven material used within almost all multi-storey buildings, and a stay-in-place polymer shell. The Dincel wall system has been meticulously tested and assessed by some of Australia’s largest NATA-accredited laboratories and renowned fire professionals in order to prove its safety and compliance with the NCC.

  • Inadequate wall systems, poor construction or a lack of awareness of the relevant fire performance requirements can result in non-compliance, which can have serious repercussions, such as expensive litigation and repairs.
  • CodeMark Certificates of Conformity are designed to provide certainty to regulatory authorities and the market that certified products are compliant with specific requirements of the NCC.
