Evacuation Diagrams in Canberra
Site-verified evacuation diagrams for workplaces across Canberra and the ACT, from offices in Civic and the parliamentary triangle to industrial sites in Fyshwick and Mitchell. The ACT has its own emergency and building legislation, so we prepare diagrams to the AS 3745 benchmark and check them against the requirements that apply in the Territory.

Local Considerations
ACT legislation
Emergency planning in the ACT sits under Territory legislation rather than NSW law. Our ACT compliance guide sets out the framework, and we prepare diagrams to the AS 3745 benchmark.
Government and multi-tenant offices
Large office buildings often have several tenants on shared floors. Diagrams need to be consistent across tenancies and match the building emergency plan.
Bush fire prone edges
Parts of the ACT border bush fire prone land. The diagram should show the assembly area your emergency plan actually uses, which may differ in a bush fire.

Evacuation Diagram FAQs: Canberra
Do you work in Canberra and the ACT?
Yes. We prepare evacuation diagrams for ACT sites and arrange site visits to verify exits, equipment and "You Are Here" positions. We can also start from your floor plans and photos.
Are the rules different in the ACT?
The ACT has its own emergency and building legislation. AS 3745 remains the recognised benchmark for evacuation diagrams, and we check what applies to your building. Our ACT compliance guide explains the framework.
How long does it take in Canberra?
Our standard delivery is 14 days from site verification. Large or multi-building sites are scheduled with you when we quote.
What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the number of floors and buildings, and floor plans if you have them (PDF or CAD). Photos of any existing diagrams help too.
More questions about what a diagram must show, review timing and sizing are answered on our main evacuation diagrams page.
