Evacuation Diagrams in Albany and the Great Southern

CMG has a long history in the Great Southern, with diagrams installed at North Albany Senior High School, Albany Secondary Education Support Centre and South Regional TAFE in Albany, and work across Denmark, Mount Barker and Katanning. Regional sites get the same AS 3745-2010 standard as Perth, with visits planned so several sites are covered in one trip.

Local knowledge

Regional schools and campuses deserve the same standard as Perth

Great Southern schools often combine older heritage buildings with new learning areas, and many have bushfire assembly areas as well as the standard fire assembly area. CMG diagrams show both, oriented to each location, with the legend and validity date the standard requires.

Because travel is involved, Craig groups Albany and Great Southern visits so schools, TAFE campuses, aged care and council buildings can be surveyed or trained in the same trip, keeping the cost down for each site.

Interactive self-check

Is your evacuation diagram still compliant?

Six quick checks based on AS 3745-2010 and what Craig sees most often on WA sites.

Does every diagram have a "You Are Here" point that matches where it is mounted?AS 3745-2010 requires the diagram to be oriented to the viewer's position.

Are all current exits and paths of travel shown, with nothing that no longer exists?Blocked, locked or removed doors are the most common failure.

Is the assembly area shown correctly, including any temporary changes?Construction, transportables and new fencing often move it.

Is every extinguisher, hose reel, blanket and alarm point shown where it actually is?Equipment gets relocated during fit-outs and services.

Has the building changed since the diagram was issued?Extensions, new rooms, demountables or a changed use of space.

Is the diagram legible, with a legend, and mounted at the right height?Faded prints and missing legends are non-compliant.

Answer the six checks above

Good to know

Common questions

Straight answers grounded in AS 3745-2010 and WA workplace legislation. Anything else, call Craig.

Yes. CMG is based in Osborne Park and works across the whole of Western Australia. Craig schedules Great Southern trips several times a year and groups sites together to keep costs down.

Every workplace and facility occupied by people: schools, childcare centres, offices, shops, warehouses, aged care, medical practices, community centres and strata buildings, under AS 3745-2010 and the WHS (General) Regulations 2022.

Most sites are surveyed, drawn and installed within a few weeks, faster where CMG already holds the drawings. Ask Craig for a date that suits your site.

Whenever the building, exits, fire equipment or assembly area change. AS 3745-2010 says the validity period should not exceed five years, so Craig recommends a full review at least every five years. CMG reviews existing diagrams and updates only what needs it.
