Description

The objective of this Standard is to provide the building industry with procedures that can be used to determine building practice, to design or check construction details, and to determine member sizes, and bracing and fixing requirements for timber-framed construction in non-cyclonic areas.

Scope

This Standard specifies requirements for building practice and the selection, placement and fixing of the various structural elements used in the construction of timber-framed Class 1 and Class 10 Buildings as defined by the Building Code of Australia and within the limitations given in Clause 1.6. The Standard also applies to alterations and additions to these buildings.

This Standard also provides building practice and procedures, which assist in the correct specification and design of timber members, bracing and connections, thereby minimizing the risk of creating an environment which might adversely affect the ultimate performance of the structure.

Reference is made to the Span Tables in the Supplements throughout this Standard. The Supplements are an integral part of, and shall be used in conjunction with, this Standard.

This Standard may also be applicable to the design and construction of other classes of buildings where the design criteria, loadings and other parameters applicable to those classes of building are within the limitations of this Standard.

Notes: 

  1. See AS 1684.1 for details of design criteria, loadings and other parameters.
  2. Whilst this Standard can be used to design Class 10 buildings, less conservative levels of design for this building class may be permitted by building regulations and other Australian Standards.
