Resources
If you need resources and guides tailored for sustainability, resilience in apartments, units, and townhouses, this page is your new best friend.
These resources have been collected with Victorian audiences in mind but they are collected from across Australia. Despite the different owners corporation legislation in each state and territory, there’s lots we can learn from each other.
Flood resilience strategies for apartment buildings
Following the 2022 Floods, Brisbane Sustainability Agency has developed comprehensive retrofit guidance for apartment buildings in flood prone areas.
There are practical flood resilience techniques that range in price and are suitable for most apartment building types.
Emergency Response Toolkits
Is your strata community prepared for a fire, lift failure or other disaster?
Owners Corporation Network, with support from the City of Sydney, has developed tools and guidelines to help your Strata Committee develop an Emergency Response Plan tailored to your community.
High-rise fire safety
The added dangers associated with evacuating a high-rise building mean it is critical to plan for and to know how to respond quickly and safely. It is also vital to prevent a fire occurring in the first place.
Find out how you and your owners corporation can prepare on the Fire Rescue Victoria website.
