If your development is in the Wollongong City Centre and will be four storeys high or more, your DA will need to include a 3D CAD model of the building.
Fees apply for submitting or updating a 3D model. You need to provide the 3D model as described below. Make sure you follow these rules carefully. If the 3D CAD model isn’t provided correctly, you will have to resubmit it, and re-pay any fees.
Detailed model of development site and buildings
A 1:1 scale detailed 3D CAD model is required, showing a realistic and accurate 3D representation of the exterior of the whole development. This should include:
- Site details: landscaped areas, driveways, access ramps, pedestrian access ways, car parking, major signage or similar structures, bridges, street overpasses and any other significant features.
- Building details. everything of significance for each elevation, including all protrusions and indents like balconies, porticos, parapets, etc.
- Roof details: all external detail including pitch, protrusions such as plant enclosures, fire stairs, terraces, shade roofs, signage structures, flag poles or similar.
- Do not include any interior details, text, dimensions, hatching or area fill.
Accepted CAD formats
3D models should be provided as AutoCAD 3D DWG or Autodesk 3DS format.
Contact us before submitting to discuss alternative acceptable file formats.
Reference files
All relevant data must be bound within the submitted 3D CAD model. Do not include any reference or cross-reference points or external files.
Layer and level names
Layer names must be descriptive and logical. Do not use numerical-only layer names.
Naming conventions
Naming conventions used should be clearly defined in the documentation submitted with the model.
Rendering of the model
Surface material renders and building facades should be supplied as raster images in separate files, and must indicate the model face the image applies to and method of applying the image (eg full faced or tiled).
