Technical Information - Codes and Standards  
   


In general design and structure codes comply with ASTM, BS, DIN and ASA. All components and structures are designed well above those required at present. We believe that current climate changes (Global Warming) will significantly impact on all building structures in the future.
The Litecrete system is designed to include these additional demands and is in compliance with the following codes:

Design Codes:
   Australian Standard 3600.23 - 1993
  Australian Standard 4100 - 1993
  Australian Standard 4600 - 1993
  Australian Standard 1538 - 1988
  Australian Standard 1250 - 1993
  Australian Standard 4055 - 1992

Structure Code:

  Australian Standard 1170 - 1989
Seismic Code:
  Australian Standard 2870
Design Wind Load:
  W = 65 metres per second
Quality Assurance:
  International Standard ISO 9002

Building structures designed with the Litecrete System use steel reinforced hollow core panels and are self-supporting without beams or columns to a height of 5 levels. All external and internal wall panels as well as floor and ceiling components are post tensioned together to form the structure of the building.
