Earthquake areas

• High wind construction requirements
• Construction requirements for earthquake areas
• Acceleration coefficients between 0.12 and 0.15
• Acceleration coefficients greater than 0.15

Acceleration coefficients between 0.12 and 0.15

To comply with building regulations, buildings in areas where the acceleration coefficient is between 0.12 and 0.15 have additional requirements that must be met.

Refer to the BCA, Section 3.10.2 Earthquake areas for more information.
