[Superseded]Termite management, Part 1: New building work
Sets out requirements for the design and construction of subterranean termite management systems for new buildings and ground level extensions and renovations. It includes provisions for both physical and chemical termite barriers throughout mainland Australia. It is intended for builders, building designers, regulatory authorities, termite management system manufacturers and installers, and those people requiring termite management systems, This Standard is the 1st part in a series of 3 Standards on termite management.
