Supporting and standing alongside Australian communities through the massive rebuild effort is a top priority for Standards Australia. We understand how integral standards are in building resilient structures, and for this reason have partnered with the Australian Commonwealth government to jointly fund access to AS 3959:2018, Construction of buildings in bushfire-prone areas. The standard, which aims to better equip houses with the ability to withstand fires, can be accessed from now until June 2021 at no cost to the public. As communities, government, councils and individuals begin the recovery process, Standards Australia hopes this key standard will assist communities in developing the most resilient structures possible in these affected areas. Without our volunteers, stakeholders and the general public, Standards Australia would not be able to develop standards for the Australian people to use as tools in their rebuild processes. In a time when the Australian people are banding together, we are proud and honoured to support the many affected communities.
