Firstly, You constantly refer to FBR's walls as Veneer Walls - They are not Veneer Walls - They are Structural Load Bearing Walls

FBR's walls are engineered, and comply with all performance requirements in AS3700 & AS4773. The proof is in the houses they have already built and sold.

You are correct with Veneer Walls as stated in the NCC, But lets compare apples with apples here.

"Vertical articulation joints must be provided in masonry veneer walls in accordance with (b), EXCEPT in walls constructed on sites where the soil classification is A or S (see Part 3.2.4)"

Your out of your depth Troopy.

You must be a sour hurt old man the way you waffle on this forum and the amount of time you spend here vomiting the same ol lines "Wont Pass Code" - "We Cant use it"

lol

The codes dts requirements are merely one avenue of compliance. You're correct that engineers design/certification is another method for meeting specific performance requirements. But also technically any system/product could comply if proven under a performance solution that a surveyor is willing to accept. That's where the powers at be have been taking us for a number of years now in order to address the issues of an evolving world of new machines, products and systems. Most in the industry are not all over this.
