Introduction

Under the Design and Building Practitioners Act 2020, registered design practitioners are

required to provide design compliance declarations when they provide a person with a

regulated design prepared by the practitioner and the design is in a form suitable for use by

that person or another person in connection with building work.

Regulated designs are designs prepared for a building element or a performance solution for

building work.

Please refer to the Design Practitioners Handbook for more information on how to determine

whether a design is a regulated design, including information on building elements and

building work.

A design compliance declaration is a declaration regarding a number of matters. One of

those is, under clause 9(1)(c) of the Design and Building Practitioners Regulation 2021,

whether the design accords with relevant elements of this Regulated Design Guidance

Material.

Persons preparing regulated designs must therefore ensure that the designs accord with

relevant elements of this Regulated Design Guidance Material.

Structure of this Guidance Material

This Guidance material is comprised of a table identifying a number of classes of designs.

Note: It is up to the design practitioner to determine whether the design they are preparing is

a regulated design. The Design Practitioners Handbook provides further guidance on how to

determine this.

Each row of the table is a category of design within that class. The table then identifies in

relation to each category the:

1) minimum scale of design for that category;

2) “design aspects and details” for that category, noting not all designs will be relevant

for a particular project; and

3) minimum requirements for that category.
