BAL 12.5 (Bushfire Attack Level 12.5) and BAL 19 are classifications used in Australia to measure the risk of ember attack and radiant heat exposure to buildings during a bushfire. BAL 12.5 indicates a low to moderate risk, while BAL 19 signifies a moderate risk. Each rating requires specific construction standards to enhance resistance to bushfire-related damage, including the use of non-combustible materials and specific construction methods. At P J Cook Building, we ensure all our projects in bushfire-prone areas comply with these requirements to safeguard homes and occupants. For more information, please contact us.
