Dear Alex
RE 245 David Low Way Peregian Beach - MCU21/0228.01
It’s my professional opinion that the space is not a habitable room as there is insufficient ceiling height.
Refer below,
P2.4.2 Room heights
A room or space must be of a height that does not unduly interfere with its intended function.
3.8.2.2 Height of rooms and other spaces
Heights of rooms and other spaces (see Figure 3.8.2.1) must be not less than—
(a)in a habitable room excluding a kitchen — 2.4 m; and
(b)in a kitchen — 2.1 m; and
(c)in a corridor, passageway or the like — 2.1 m; and
(d)in a bathroom, shower room, laundry, sanitary compartment, airlock, pantry, storeroom, garage, car
parking area or the like — 2.1 m; and
(e)in a room or space with a sloping ceiling or projections below the ceiling line within—
(i)a habitable room—

(A)in an attic — a height of not less than 2.2 m for at least two-thirds of the floor area of the room or
space; and
(B)in other rooms — a height of not less than 2.4 m over two-thirds of the floor area of the room or
space; and
(ii)a non-habitable room — a height of not less than 2.1 m for at least two-thirds of the floor area of the
room or space,
and when calculating the floor area of a room or space, any part that has a ceiling height of less than 1.5
m is not included.
The angled screen to the balcony provides ventilation, therefore cannot be considered as a room or an
enclosed space , as its not weatherproof.
P2.2.2 Weatherproofing
A roof and external wall (including openings around windows and doors) must prevent the penetration
of water that could cause—
(a)unhealthy or dangerous conditions, or loss of amenity for occupants; and
Kind Regards,
