A Certificate of Compliance is a document that is regulated by the Victorian Building Authority and is referred to as "Regulation 1507: Certificate of Compliance – Design".
The Victorian Building Authority administers Victoria’s building legislation system. The document is a statement made by the engineer to the Building Surveyor that all structural design works have been carried out in accordance with the Building Act 1993, the Building Regulations 2006, the Building Code of Australia and the relevant Australian Standards.
In order to complete your Building Permit application, your Building Surveyor may request a Certificate of Compliance from an engineer pertaining to your proposed development. This document gives you and your Building Surveyor confidence that all design work has been completed by us to the required standards as set by the Victorian Building Authority At Melbourne Civil & Structural Engineers, we have qualified, experienced and licensed Engineers to check the design independently and provide a Certificate of Compliance.

Adam responded to my request to check the cracks in our 40 year old brick veneer. His inspection was far more comprehensive than I had expected and I was very impressed by the level of care and attention detail. Adam listened to my concerns and I felt that he understood that I was unclear about what needed to be prioritised in terms of repairs. After his inspection, Adam provided good explanation the issues that clarified the state of the house. I am now able to go ahead with the renovations with much greater degree of confidence. We are very grateful to Adam and his team. I highly recommend Melbourne Civil and Structural Engineers.
