INTRODUCTION

MBM Pty has been engaged to prepare a report to establish the cost difference between the “Base case and

the +10” scenarios associated with the potential change to BASIX targets, for Water, Energy and Thermal

Comfort Indices for representative examples of Class 2 attached and low‐rise multi unit developments.

Annexure 1 of this report contains the summary of findings that determine the cost impact of the increased

stringency requirements. This report sets out the methodology and findings to the investigations conducted.

1. METHODOLOGY

The major changes to the construction of attached dwellings brought about by the proposed BASIX changes for

water and energy usage.

1.1 LOW WATER USE SPECIES Several landscape architects have been contacted; they have indicated no price difference for fee regarding

implementation for a garden design. However we have been advised that the cost difference between a low

water use species garden and a normal garden would be minimal, it would be the visual impact and the

maintenance that would be greatly affected. Therefore for the exercise we have stated that this is a Nil cost

specification change.

1.2 WATER USAGE MBM has used the Masterton Builders House Specification (Annexure 3) to establish a standard quality for tap

ware and toilet suites. This also assisted in establishing a supplier base. MBM has spoken with a Masterton

supplier Novelli and Caroma who have provided a number of tap fitting and shower heads ranges which fit

within a budget, average and high end categories, providing a range of costs that will fit within the examples

provided. Where examples could not be sourced, explanations have been provided.

1.3 ENERGY For the Heating & Cooling components, again MBM have contacted several suppliers to establish the main

brands and product types used for domestic dwellings which comply with the BASIX requirements. Where

examples could not be sourced, explanations have been provided.

2. PRELIMINARIES AND MARGIN

To keep the methodology consistent with previous similar BASIX tasks that MBM have undertaken for the NSW

Department of Planning & Infrastructure, preliminaries have been priced at 10% and contractors margin at 8%.

Both preliminaries and margin have been factored into the each rate (see annexure 2).


4

3. REGIONAL COST VARIATIONS

Regional cost differences have been included to reflect the extra cost of transportion and obtaining labour,

material and equipment for non‐metropolitan localities in NSW. Locality indices, published by the NSW

Government Department of Public Works, have been used as follows:

Wollongong: base cost index 100

Worrigee: locality cost index 100 (or Nil adjustment on base cost)

Shellharbour: locality cost index 100 (or Nil adjustment on base cost)

4. WATER

4.1 SHOWERHEADS MBM has been requested to compare the cost difference between 3 star 7.5‐9 L/min fixtures and 3 star 6‐

7.5L/min. For the comparison between basic, medium and expensive dwellings an adjustable arm with a round

rose design was chosen, based on the Masterton standard being a Dove chrome shower set at $91.48. The

majority of shower fittings on the market are currently 3 star products. One 4 star product has been

identified; being a new product from Caroma. The Caroma representative confirmed that due to the flow and

pressure requirement to achieve a 4 star rating, there will be minimal cost variations between different 4 star

rated heads. Therefore we have used this model to compare with the basic medium and expensive dwellings.

4.2 TOILET SUITES Not applicable to this BASIX Stringency Review.

4.3 KITCHEN TAPS When assessing the cost comparisons of a 3 star flickmixer and a 5 star flickmixer, it was highlighted that there

were minimal 3 star and 5 star mixers on the market, with the majority being 4 star mixers. The Masterton

standard is also a 4 star fitting. Two 5 star mixers have been identified, with the budget unit being used for the

cost comparison with a budget 4 star mixer. For the purpose of the individual dwelling costing exercise MBM

has stated this specification change as a cost variation. One supplier has been identified who produces a 4 star

fitting and a 6 star fitting of the same model, and these costs have also been provided (in annexure 2).

4.4 BATHROOM TAPS In investigating the costs of 3 star basin tap sets and 5 star basin tap sets, MBM has established that currently

there were no 3 star and limited 5 star tap sets available, from the main suppliers used within this study. The

majority of basin taps available are 4 star mixers. The Masterton standard fitting is a 4 star rated product.

One supplier confirmed that several of their 4 star products will soon be available with a 5 star rating, and that

at present would be available at 4 star rated prices. For the purpose of the individual dwelling costing exercise


5

MBM has stated a nil cost variation. One supplier, who produces a 4 star fitting and a 5 star fitting of the same

model has quoted this additional cost as $14.30 and these costs have been provided (in annexure 2).

4.5 RAINWATER TANKS To enable a comparative cost review for rain water tanks, MBM have costed the round polyethylene tanks as a

base design. The supply price for slim‐line type tanks is generally more expensive than the round cylindrical

versions (supply only of slim‐line types cost on average 57 cents per litre; round types cost on average 38 cents

per litre – refer to table of tank costs in annexure 2).

Slim‐line type tank sizes currently range in the market from 450L to 5,000L, and round cylindrical tank sizes

range from 200L to 10,000L and larger if required. It would seem then that where BASIX has specified rain

water harvesting exceeding 5000L, then current market availability would dictate the use of one round

cylindrical tank equal to or exceeding the specified rain water storage capacity. Alternatively, if land space /

aesthetics are household issues, then a combination of interconnected slim‐line tanks could be a solution to

achieve rain water storage capacities greater than 5000L.

The table of tank types and sizes demonstrates a number of permutations could be possible for households.

Example: 6000L BASIX specification could result in a) 2 x 3000L round tanks @ $1172 supply; b) 1 x 5000L plus

1 x 1000L slim‐line tanks @ $2,177 supply; c) 2 x 3000L slim‐line tanks @ $1,756 supply, etc, etc. It is beyond

the scope of this report to consider every permutation when costing the various BASIX specification

requirements, hence MBM have priced the round cylindrical tanks as a benchmark.

The proposed BASIX stringency for Case 10 attached dwelling requires rain water harvesting capacities of

6000L. We could not find an individual tank size to match the exact BASIX stringency of 6000L. For the

purposes of this report, where 6000L tanks have been specified then 7000L round tanks were priced.

Separate costs have been included for a pump / water mains diverter unit refer annexure 2.

5. THERMAL COMFORT

Thermal Comfort compliance requirements for attached and low‐rise multi‐unit dwellings were subject to

independent assessment by Efficiency Assessments P/L. Cost estimates are based on recommended

specification changes proposed in report “BASIX Stringency Review: The impact of decreased BASIX caps in

attached and multi unit housing”, November 2012.”

5.1 ATTACHED DWELLINGS:

5.1.1 REPLACE CONCRETE RAFT SLAB WITH A WAFFLE POD SLAB DESIGN The ‘BASIX Stringency Review’ states that constructing a concrete waffle pod slab in lieu of a concrete raft slab

would provide a saving of approx. $5 to $10 per m2. MBM are of the opinion that the saving is a possibility,

however it would depend on the geotechnical conditions of each and every site to determine the most suitable

structural designs for the respective ground slabs. MBM were not provided with any structural designs to

verify the aforementioned savings.

Annexure 1 of this report provides three ground slab scenarios to demonstrate the cost variances that could

be encountered.

a) If we assume a 260mm overall thickness waffle slab based on the architectural ground floor plan that was

provided, then the resultant rate per m2 equates to approx. $136.88 based on the cost break‐up items.

b) For comparison, if we assume a 150mm bar reinforced concrete slab with thickenings (bar reinforcement at

a rate of 150kg/m3), then the resultant rate per m2 equates to approx. $140.73 ($3.85/m2 more than the

waffle slab).

c) For comparison, if we assume a 120mm high mesh reinforced concrete slab with thickenings (2 x layers of

SL82 mesh reinforcement), then the resultant rate per m2 equates to approx. $106.45 ($30.43/m2 less than

the waffle slab).

Note: The cost variance associated with the ground slab specification change has been excluded from the

schedule in Annexure 1 as advised by the Department of Planning and Infrastructure.

5.1.2 CHANGE ROOFING TO DARK COLOURS MBM are of the opinion that there would be no cost difference between the ranges of available standard

colours for various roofing products.

5.1.3 INCREASE CEILING INSULATION FROM R3.5 TO R4 MBM provide a cost comparison between R3.5 ‘Greenstuf’ ceiling batts (retail price $10.60/m2) and R4.0

‘Greenstuf’ ceiling batts (retail price $12.72) i.e. $2.12/m2 difference.

Also, R3.5 ‘EarthWool’ ceiling batts (retail price $5.50/m2) and R4.0 ‘EarthWool’ ceiling batts (retail price

$6.19/m2) i.e. $0.69/m2 difference.

5.1.4 REDUCE SIZE OF BEDROOM 1 WINDOW TO DWELLING UNITS 1 & 3, FROM 1.6M X 1.8M HIGH TO 1.2M X 1.8M

HIGH Annexure 1 of this report provides a cost break‐up of the various cost adds and deducts associated with

changing the size of the windows. Net saving of approx. $103 per window. or $206 total.


7

5.2 LOW RISE MULTI-UNIT DWELLINGS:

5.2.1 INSULATION (R1.0) TO UNDERSIDE OF SLAB TO UNITS 1; 2 & 3 Annexure 1 of this report provides a cost break‐up of an insulation product 20mm Styreflex aluminium foil‐

faced expanded polystyrene rigid board. Supply and install cost approx. $22.73 per m2 or $9,092 total.

5.2.2 DECREASE THE GLAZING TO THE NORTH ELEVATION OF STUDIO UNITS 3, 8 & 11 FROM 5600MM WIDE TO

5000MM WIDE Annexure 1 of this report provides a cost break‐up of the various cost adds and deducts associated with

changing the width of the glazed units. Net saving of approx. $495 per unit or $1,485 total.

5.2.3 INCREASE THE OPENABLE PERCENTAGE OF EAST FACING WINDOWS TO UNIT 4 Annexure 1 of this report provides a cost break‐up of the various cost adds and deducts associated with

increasing the extent of openable windows. Additional cost of approx. $143 per window or $286 total.

6. ENERGY

6.1 HOT WATER STORAGE HEATER The revised specification, for case 10, requires the solar (electric boosted) water heater system to achieve a

score of 36‐40 renewable energy certificates (previously 26‐30 REC’s). The cost difference that we have

identified is based on a Rheem ‘Split Lowline 511 270/2 NPT’ but with one additional solar panel to achieve the

required REC’s. These units are a well‐known brand, and have been used for the cost exercise, details

provided (in annexure 2).

6.2 HEATING AND COOLING Not applicable to this BASIX Stringency Review.

6.3 VENTILATION Not applicable to this BASIX Stringency Review.

6.4 ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING With the change from incandescent lighting to CFL, only the light globe is affected. A standard globe for each

type has been chosen for the cost analysis. MBM has assumed 1 light fitting per room, with 2 fittings for both

living and dining areas for the large dwelling. Please note the globe prices do not consider life span i.e. the CFL

cost is more per unit than incandescent, but CFL may last twice as long.

6.5 ALTERNATIVE ENERGY Case 11 Low rise multi‐units: the photo voltaic system is to be increased from 4kW to a 5.5kW system. To

achieve this additional capacity the number of solar panels will need to increase by six including one additional

inverter. Order of cost to supply and install is approx. $4000.

6.6 OTHER ITEMS MBM have priced medium standard appliances in respect of the 4‐burner gas cook‐top versus the 4‐plate

induction cook‐top. Applicable power supply and gas supply costs have been included (refer to annexure 2).
