Compliance

Australian Standards for the current CSA range

The standards that apply to our current construction-supply catalogue: steel roofing, walling, cladding, fasteners, insulation and structural sections. CSA provides compliance documentation on project orders.

AS 1562.1Design and installation of sheet roof and wall cladding — Metal

The primary standard for installing steel roof and wall cladding. Covers fixing, lapping, minimum pitch and weatherproofing for every profile we supply.

AS/NZS 1397Continuous hot-dip metallic coated steel sheet and strip

Specifies the steel substrate and metallic coatings (Zincalume, galvanised) beneath COLORBOND paint. Defines coating mass and corrosion classes.

AS 3566Self-drilling screws for the building and construction industries

Sets fastener corrosion classes (Class 2, 3 and 4). Determines the correct screw for inland, coastal and severe-marine environments.

AS/NZS 1170.2Structural design actions — Wind actions

Defines wind regions and design wind speeds across Australia. Drives the fastener density and sheet thickness required for each site.

AS 1530.1Methods for fire tests on building materials — Combustibility

The test that confirms steel roofing is non-combustible, satisfying BAL-12.5 through BAL-FZ roof cladding requirements in bushfire-prone areas.

AS/NZS 4600Cold-formed steel structures

Governs the design of cold-formed C and Z purlins, girts and steel framing supplied for sheds and commercial buildings.

NCC Section JNational Construction Code — Energy efficiency

Sets thermal performance requirements for commercial buildings. Determines insulation and sarking specifications under steel roofing.

AS/NZS 4859.1Thermal insulation materials for buildings

Specifies the R-value and properties of reflective sarking and bulk insulation we supply for roof build-ups.
