How do I obtain New Zealand Building Code Approved Documents?
The Department of Building & Housing website has free PDF format downloads available of all Compliance Documents (previously known as Acceptable Solutions). The link to the relevant page is below.
The Victoria University Book Centre also fulfils orders for the Building Act and Regulations, and for Compliance Documents for Building Code Clauses and the NZBC Handbook. Compliance Documents and the Handbook are available in three formats (note that this service is not free).
1. Hard copy These can be ordered via the Vicbooks website, by email or by phone. They can be purchased as a full set or in individual Clauses to be slotted into ring binders. Amendments - Everyone on the Vicbooks database gets an email notification each time an amendment is published to any Compliance Document. They can buy the ones they need for a few dollars.
2. PDF These can be bought and downloaded from the Vicbooks website as individual Clauses. Amendments - People who have already downloaded a particular Clause are notified by email when that Clause is amended. They can then buy and download that amendment via the Vicbooks website.
3. CD-ROM This can be ordered via the Vicbooks website, please refer to the link below, by email or by phone. Amendments - Free amendments are sent in a new CD during the 12-month period of the subscription.
