Australian Panels’ Post

The recent updates to the Livable Housing Design Standard by the Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB) introduced new requirements for certain builds. One key requirement is the mandatory installation of a reinforced, robust backing board with a minimum of 12 mm thickness behind plasterboard in areas around the toilet, shower and bath to support the safe installation of grabrails at a later date. Frame and truss suppliers are offering STRUCTApanel 12mm as it’s emerging as a superior alternative to plywood that not only meets but exceeds the necessary standards. This innovative panel offers a combination of strength, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness that makes it the ideal choice for builders.
