FCDS played a pivotal role in delivering Section J compliance and energy performance enhancements for the Casuarina Prison Tranche 2 expansion. This justice infrastructure project presented unique challenges due to security and operational requirements, but Full Circle successfully delivered a Section J outcome that exceeded minimum BCA requirements by 10%, a notable achievement for a correctional facility where energy efficiency is often deprioritised.

Our team worked closely with consultants to improve glazing, insulation, and services coordination to enhance building envelope performance and optimise conditioned zones. The design outcome reflects a pragmatic yet sustainability-focused approach to public sector compliance.
