This Standard sets minimum requirements for detailing fabrication and installation methods of protection against termite infestation for implementation during new building work and for minimizing the risk to new buildings from damage by subterranean termites. This Standard also provides a series of details to achieve the performance requirement for evidence of termites to be forced into visible locations when gaining entry to a building. These details may be amended provided the integrity of any barrier is not compromised and the specific dimensions and written requirements are not changed. It includes procedures and details for providing both physical barriers and chemical soil barriers. This Standard provides a range of options. Barriers may be used singly or in combination to provide an integrated system for the protection of buildings. The provisions of this Standard will provide protection against concealed entry by subterranean termites above the termite barrier for the whole of the building.
