The building has not been designed for the deflection limitations of
plasterboard. Although plasterboard may be used as internal wall and roof
linings, excessive cracking is likely to occur should the plasterboard joints be
set. When plasterboard is used, dado rails or expansion beads etc. should be
considered as an alternative to setting the joints. If it is desired to line any part
of the building with plasterboard, then the builder should consult their
plasterboard supplier for expert advice. A suitable internal lining would be a
plywood wall panel, eg. Rezilience 2.7mm Interior Wall Paneling or similar.
Any linings and the fixings for any linings are to be provided by others.The
selected wall and ceiling panel should have a weight of no more than 10kg/m2.
Refer to manufacturer's fixing specifications for your chosen product and
provide additional fixings as required.
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
The Purchaser/Owner is to be ensured that all building construction complies
with:
Workplace Health and Safety requirements for the particular State or Territory
Building Code of Australia(current edition at time of approval) and all
subsequent amendments and standards contained therein, including:
• All glazing to comply with NCC Volume 2 Part 3.6
• Smoke alarms(consumer mains power) to be installed in accordance with
NCC Volume 2 Part 3.7.5.2
• Provide lift-off hinges to doors of enclosed sanitary compartments in
accordance with NCC Volume 2 Part 3.8.3.3
• All stairs and balustrades to comply with NCC Volume 2 Part 3.9. Stairs are
provided by owner and designed by others.
MOISTURE MANAGEMENT
It is the responsibility of the Builder to ensure appropriate Moisture
Management is provided during wall construction through effective use of
flashings, sealants and vapour permeable membrane such as vapour
permeable sarking, building wraps, vapour retarders and damp-proof course.
Before installing cladding, all wall openings, penetrations, intersections,
connections, window sills, head and jambs must incorporate appropriate
flashing and water proofing materials. Components and their installation that
are used to manage moisture in wall construction must, at a minimum, comply
with the requirements of relevant standards, building codes and
manufacturer's specifications.
