In the world of building design and compliance, understanding your energy efficiency requirements is crucial. Two key pathways for meeting the National Construction Code (NCC) requirements are
A J1V3 Assessment, also known as Verification Using a Reference Building (VURB), is an alternative compliance pathway under NCC Volume 1. It offers flexibility in meeting Part JP1 energy use by comparing your building’s energy performance to a reference building’s energy targets.
Alternative to Section J compliance for building fabric .
Suitable for various building classes, including residential, office, shops, laboratories, and healthcare facilities
Allows for more design flexibility and innovation
A Section J Report is a mandatory component of the NCC Volume 1, focusing on the energy efficiency of commercial buildings. It encompasses various parts that address building fabric, sealing, HVAC systems, lighting, and more.
Mandatory for compliance with Part J4-J9
Covers multiple aspects of building energy efficiency, including thermal performance, HVAC systems, and lighting
At Xpress Reports, we offer expertise in section J compliance reports and J1V3 assessments. Each report offers a unique approach to demonstrating energy compliance for various building classes.
