Childers is a Bruce Highway town among avocado, macadamia and citrus orchards, and the rural service centre for the growers around it.
The Bundaberg region's food production mixes sugar cane with tree crops such as citrus, stone fruit, avocados and macadamias, and the planning scheme encourages on-farm processing and packing. That is where packing sheds, machinery sheds and cool, well-ventilated storage come in.
The planning scheme names a Childers industry and enterprise area near Blacksmith Court and Browns Road for low to medium impact industry, and proposes a high impact industry area east of town opposite the aerodrome. Commercial sheds belong in those areas rather than in town streets.
Childers is warm, with an average maximum close to 27 °C and about 1,050 mm of rain a year. Geoscience Australia's wind-region data puts it in non-cyclonic Region B1, just south of the cyclonic line that runs near Bundaberg, and the engineer confirms the site's wind speed.
Council rules differ, so these notes are per council and come from each council's own pages. Requirements depend on your property, proposed structure and local planning/building controls.
Wind: Geoscience Australia's interpretation of the AS/NZS 1170.2:2021 wind-region map places Hervey Bay, Maryborough and Childers (Bundaberg is Region C) in Region B1 (non-cyclonic). The dataset is indicative only; the engineer confirms the site's design wind speed. Source
Where a machinery shed is set by the gear, an agricultural shed is set by the work: stacking, loading, feeding, sorting.
A machinery shed is set by the gear: the widest header front, the tallest cab with the aerial up, and the turning circle to get it in.
A commercial shed has to work for the business every day: vehicle access, loading, a clean customer entry, and a layout that doesn't need changing in two years.
Measure what you're parking, then add the room to open doors, walk around and store things. That, not a catalogue size, sets the garage.
Design it yourself in 3D.Build your shed in our online designer and send it to us. We'll price that exact design and give you a timeframe.
Yes. We design packing and produce sheds around the workflow, loading and ventilation. A shed where people work may be classified differently from a storage shed, which we sort out with the certifier.
Geoscience Australia's indicative data places Childers in Region B1, which is non-cyclonic, while Bundaberg is in Region C. The engineer confirms the wind region and design wind speed for the actual site.
