The Building Code sets performance standards for all New Zealand building work. This section tells you how to access the Building Code and get copies of the handbook.
The Building Code is contained in Schedule 1 of the Building Regulations 1992. It sets the performance standards that all building work must meet, even if it doesn't need a building consent.
It covers aspects such as structural stability, fire safety, access, moisture control, durability, services and facilities, and energy efficiency.
It sets the minimum standards building work must perform to, but not how to meet them. You cannot do less than the minimum standards, but you can exceed them.
In other words, the Building Code is performance-based. It states how a building must perform in its intended use rather than describing how the building must be designed and constructed.
An advantage of a performance-based Building Code is flexibility. This allows developments and innovation in building design, technology and systems.
As a property owner you can choose your designs, products or building methods, as long as your building consent application demonstrates that your proposal meets Building Code requirements. For example, the Building Code specifies how much natural light there must be in a bedroom but not how you must achieve that natural light. Your designs need to show how you would meet that requirement.
