Provides the procedure for structural design; includes design procedures, reference to design actions (other parts of the series), combinations of actions, detailing for robustness, methods of analysis and methods for confirmation of a limit states design; also covers the use of special studies and experimental testing and, for New Zealand, criteria for selection of annual probability of exceedance.

Specifies basic requirements for the bracing, connection and installation of nailplated timber roof trusses. Requirements are given for supporting structures, roof truss installation, roof bracing, truss connection and overhangs.

Provides design values of snow and ice actions for use in structural design; it is intended to be used in conjunction with AS/NZS 1170.0, which gives the procedure for structural design; snow regions are defined and ground snow loads are provided for a range of annual probabilities of exceedance; other factors cover the environment around the structure, the geometry of the structure and the effect of winds on snow distribution.

Specifies the criteria for assessing the effectiveness of termite management systems intended for use in buildings and structures as required by AS 3660.1 or AS 3660.2; also outlines procedures to assess the ability of a system and its components to manage termite activity in and around buildings and structures.

Sets out requirements for the design and construction of subterranean termite management systems for new buildings and new building work.
