Bushfire Hazard Assessment 14 Serenity Close, Noosa Heads and radiant heat flux based on distance from hazardous vegetation. Radiant heat flux can then be used to determine: ● minimum separation distance from hazardous vegetation needed to afford safety levels to people and/or buildings (Zarate et al. 2008; Newnham et al. 2013), and ● estimates of Bushfire Attack Level (Standards Australia 2018), which can provide a connection between landscape scale bushfire metrics and site level decisions for building design. The new methodology also excludes extraneous variables such as an ambiguous weighting of hazard according to topographic aspect. The improved hazard assessment methodology provides for more accurate identification of bushfire prone areas and the potential severity of bushfires — providing the basis for planning and development strategies which are proportional to the level of bushfire hazard. 8 | 38
