Synopsis: AS 3850.3 provides requirements for planning, construction, design, casting, transportation, erection and incorporation into the structure of prefabricated concrete elements in civil, infrastructure and non-building construction

Specifies requirements for couplers and accessories for scaffolding complying with AS/NZS1576.3 and AS/NZS1576.6.

Specifies requirements and test methods for encapsulation and containment products for attachment to scaffolding, including fire hazard properties, strength properties, fixing requirements and installation procedures for various types of encapsulation.

This Amendment applies to the following elements: Clauses 1.4.42, 1.5, 2.5.5, 2.5.6, 4.4.2, 5.3.1.1, 5.3.1.2, 5.3.1.3, 5.3.2.1, 5.3.2.2, 5.3.2.3, 6.4.3,B.6.1, B.6.3, E.4, Figures 3.1(A), 4.2, B.13, C.2, Tables 3.1(A), 6.2, Bibliography.

Provides information and guidelines on the selection, performance and installation of metal roofing and wall cladding.

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 the requirements for damp-proof course and flashing materials of the sheet membrane, strip and collar type for use in building construction.

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.
