The Building Code of Australia allows that wet areas in Class 1, 2, & 3 buildings may be treated in accordance with Australian Standard AS3740 'Waterproofing of Wet Areas within Residential Buildings'.
Wet areas are defined as areas within a building that are supplied with water. They include bathrooms, showers, laundries and toilets, and exclude kitchens, bars and other food preparation areas. AS3740 classifies wet areas into Levels of Risk and specifies which walls, floors, junctions and penetrations are to be treated as waterproof or water- resistant. High risk areas are bathrooms and laundries that require a floor waste, and shower areas. Medium risk areas are outside of the shower in bathrooms and adjacent to baths and spas. Low risk areas are laundries and toilets, and other walls adjoining sinks and tubs. This manual considers the treatment of walls and wall / floor junctions in these areas. |
