What are the requirements of the Code?

Clause F4 ‘Safety from Falling’ of the New Zealand Building Code requires building areas to be constructed to reduce the likelihood of accidental falls. Specifically, barriers are required where people could fall one metre or more. Barriers need to be designed and constructed so that they are capable of providing the strength and stiffness necessary for the proposed location and occupancy type of the property which they serve. Evidence of the suitability of the barrier system for its proposed use needs to be provided when making a building consent application.
