Documentation of Minor
Alterations and Additions: This service includes providing documentation and or
advice for minor alterations and additions, investigation of water leaks and
damage, re-cladding, re-roofing, detailing of window and door openings,
junctions between different claddings, ,kitchen and bathroom joinery and water
proofing details, porches, decks, new wall openings, bracing calculations,
plumbing drawings, noise and fire rated walls, the design of concrete floor
slabs, piles, floor,wall and roof framing, resource
consent and building consent applications. Consent applications will be
documented to a similar standard as my portfolio (See the above link). Although
many jobs apear small and simple, detailed
documentation will reduce the risk of problems during the construction stage of
a project. This service is only available to the greater Wellington area.. For

Production of existing drawings. Buildings where no
drawings exist, where drawings exist but the building has been altered or the
existing plans are simply inadequate. This service includes carrying out a
building survey, then based on the survey, drawings are produced. The drawings
will include all structural elements, external and internal walls, windows,
doors, location of all sanitary fixtures, power points, telephone / data
points, light fittings and switches. This information will be conveyed through
floor plans, elevations and sections. Information relating to site boundaries,
sewer , stormwater mains, water and gas supply will be provided on request only
as they require information from city and regional councils as well as private
service providers. This service is only available to the greater Wellington
area. Prices are from $30 dollars an hour plus printing and travel expenses.
For any enquiries or more information please contact me at Daniel Flynn
Energy Efficiency Services: Having problems
complying with section H1 of the New Zealand Building Code. Branz
published ALF 3.0 provides acceptable solutions and methods of compliance for non standard ideas. For instance it allows trade offs in insulation between elements, gives credit for
providing useful thermal mass and for wisely oriented windows. I provide full
residential building assessment using ALF program for building consent
applications and for preliminary designs. Prices for this service start from
$20. Please contact me for further information at Daniel Flynn
Wall
Framing Calculator: This calculator will
estimate the amount of timber required for a timber famed wall. You will be
required to enter the length of the wall, the average height, the fall of the
top plate if raking or 0 if not and also the stud and batten spacing. All
measurements entered must be in metres. Clicking on the calculate button and an
estimate of the timber required for this wall is given. The estimate is in
metres with wastage added of 10%.
Gutter
size calculator: This calculator provides the minimum cross sectional area
of a gutter for any location in New Zealand. The calculation is made in
accordance with BRANZ Bulletin 350. This calculator only applies to a roof with
pitch of less than 50°. Please note that the results from this calculator are
not intended to be made part of any Building Consent application or
construction contract. No liability is accepted for the accuracy of this
calculator. The calculator requires the following information from the user.
• Roof
Plane Area in square metres. This is the surface area of the roof that drains
to a single downpipe.
• Location
of bends: The user is required to specify the proximity of any bend in the
gutter to a downpipe. The options are: if there is no bend within 4 meters, if
a bend is within 2 meters of the downpipe or if between 2 and 4 meters.
• Length
of Gutter, the options are if the gutter is less than 6 meters long or if
greater than 6 meters long. Note that for external gutters with a fall the
length is restricted. A maximum of 50mm is allowed between the top of the
gutter and the bottom edge of the roofing.
• Fall
of Gutter, the options are if the gutter has no fall, if the fall at least
1:600 or if at least 1:300. Note the minimum fall for an internal gutter its
1:300.
• Location
of Gutter: the options are either internal or external. Note for internal
gutters all of points noted in Branz Bulletin 350
must be followed.
• Rainfall
intensity is based on a 10% probability of such a rainfall occurring over a 10
minute period. The the data used in this calculator
regarding the rainfall intensity for each place listed was put together using
Acceptable Solution E1/AS1 Appendix A to the NZBC. Any inaccuracies in this
information or for places you would like added please email me. Daniel Flynn
• After
entering the above details click calculate. In the result box the calculated
minimum cross-sectional area of the gutter will appear in mm². I do stress this
number is a minimum and does not take into account any blockages that may occur
over time. A substantial allowance should be made for such circumstances.
Gutter sizes double the size shown by this calculator makes good sense. Back to Top
