Specifies acceptable solutions for roof, surface and subsoil drainage systems, to the point(s) of connection to the external stormwater drainage network.

Specifies performance requirements for prefabricated and tube-and-coupler scaffolding. It is to be read in conjunction with AS/NZS 1576.1.

This Standard is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO 10545-1:1995.

Specifies requirements for control and indicating equipment (CIE) used in emergency warning and intercommunication systems.

The objective of this Standard is to standardize the user interface between the firefighter and the control and indicating equipment (c.i.e.) (fire indicator panel), to assist in initial training and ongoing skills maintenance for firefighters from both career and volunteer fire brigades, and to facilitate fire brigade intervention where monitored fire and smoke detection and alarms system are installed as required by the Building Code of Australia (BCA).

Sets out requirements for the design and manufacture of equipment used in emergency warning and intercommunication systems installed in buildings to ensure warning in the event of an emergency and assist in the subsequent orderly evacuation of the buildings. Distinctive, easily recognizable, visible and audible signals are specified for the emergency warning system and an independent, integrated emergency intercommunication system between a control centre and other control points is described. Appendices provide information on typical systems and detail test procedures.

Gives guidance on the selection, installation and maintenance of electrical apparatus for use in areas where combustible dusts are or may be present, in quantities which could lead to a fire or explosion hazard.

Specifies performance and design requirements for Category P lighting schemes as described in AS/NZS 1158.0. Also specifies data needed to design for and assess compliance with those requirements.

Recommends design sound levels and reverberation times for different areas of occupancy in various categories of buildings. Specifies methods of measuring the ambient sound level reverberation time. This Standard is intended for use in assessing the acoustic performance of buildings and building services. It does not apply to the evaluation of occupancy noise.

Sets out design and operational requirements for scaffolding, except trestle scaffolding, portable ladders intended to be used as working platforms and elevating working platforms.
