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.

Sets out minimum requirements for the design of structural members cold-formed to shape from carbon or low-alloy steel sheet, strip, plate or bar not more than 25mm in thickness and used for load-carrying purposes in buildings.

Provides a code of practice for the design and acceptance of timber structures and elements, and includes design methods and design data appropriate for commonly encountered structural elements and materials and requirements to be met for specification of the design, installation and maintenance of timber structures.

AS 3850.2:2024 provides requirements which impact on safety in the planning, manufacturing, construction, design, casting, transportation, erection and incorporation into the final structure of prefabricated concrete elements in building construction.

Provides requirements for the materials, components and equipment used in the manufacture of prefabricated concrete elements.

Specifies minimum requirements for the design and construction of unreinforced, reinforced and prestressed masonry, including built-in components.

The AS 3600 Concrete code; AS 3600 2009 specifies minimum requirements for the design and construction of concrete building structures and members that contain reinforcing steel or tendons, or both; sets out requirements for plain concrete and pedestal footings.

Sets out procedures for the selection and installation of glass in buildings, subject to wind loading, human impact, and special applications. Glass strength is specified, based on the tensile stresses on the surface of the glass.
