NCC 2025 for New South Wales

New South Wales moves to NCC 2025 on 1 May 2027, with no window in which you may choose.

What changes on 1 May 2027. Which edition governs a New South Wales approval either side of the date, what the two announced state variations are actually worth, where a residential energy obligation really sits across BASIX, the New South Wales Part H6 and Section J, and what the rebuilt Part F1 and the condensation provisions ask of your details.

Introduction and objectives

Why New South Wales adopted cleanly with no dual edition window, and the four things you will be able to do by the end.

Module 1 10 min

The date and the approval

Fix the governing edition from the construction certificate lodgement date, and manage the projects whose programme straddles 1 May 2027.

Module 2 10 min

The two New South Wales variations

Read the apartment common areas carve out and the remedial waterproofing election for what they are: two subtractions, not two additions.

Module 3 10 min

BASIX, Part H6 and the residential position

Place a residential energy obligation on the right instrument, and split a Class 2 job between the BASIX assessor and the services engineer.

Module 4 9 min

What does change, and using the runway

Apply the rebuilt Part F1 and the condensation provisions to climate zones four to eight, and plan the specification audit before the date arrives.

Case studies 4 min

A Penrith house, a Bondi house, and a site that straddles the date

The mandatory cavity reaching one house and not the other, and two buildings on one site approved under different editions.

Summary 3 min

Key takeaways

The checks to carry into every New South Wales project documented this year.

Finish

Final quiz and certificate

Ten project scenarios. Pass and the certificate goes straight into your dashboard.

Intermediate. For people who already document Class 1 and Class 2 work in New South Wales under NCC 2022 and BASIX. Covers the changeover date, the two announced state variations, where residential energy obligations sit, and the rebuilt Part F1 and condensation provisions. It does not cover the Section J commercial provisions in detail.

Who it is for

Written for the people whose drawings meet the changeover first.

Building designers

You document houses and small multi-residential work in New South Wales, and your approvals will land either side of 1 May 2027.

1 CPD point, with audit-ready records

Residential drafters

You carry the standard details and specifications whose Part F1 and Part F3 references go stale on the date.

1 CPD point

Building certifiers

You will assess drawings on both editions in the same month, and need to see which one an approval sits under.

1 CPD point

Multi-residential designers

The apartment common areas carve out and the Class 2 energy split both land on your projects, not on houses.

1 CPD point

Practice principals

You decide when the detail library, the specification and the fee proposals move to NCC 2025.

1 CPD point, with audit-ready records

1 hour of CPD on NCC 2025 in New South Wales, recorded on your certificate for your registration body or scheme.

CPD On Demand is not a registered training organisation and courses are not accredited by any registration body. Each course is aligned with the relevant competency frameworks and gives you the records to evidence it. CPD rules differ by registration body and state, so check with yours if you are unsure.

  • Determine which code edition governs a given New South Wales approval, and manage projects whose construction certificate lodgement falls near 1 May 2027.
  • Explain the apartment common areas carve out and the remedial waterproofing election, and what each is worth on a real project.
  • Locate a residential energy obligation correctly across BASIX, the New South Wales Part H6 and Section J.
  • Split a Class 2 energy assessment between the sole occupancy units under BASIX and the common areas under Section J.
  • Apply the rebuilt Part F1 water management provisions to balconies, podiums and concrete roofs over occupied space.
  • Apply the condensation provisions to New South Wales climate zones four to eight, including the drained and ventilated cavity.

Questions

Before you enrol.

Because the edition follows the approval. New South Wales stays on NCC 2022 as amended until 30 April 2027 and moves to NCC 2025 on 1 May 2027, with no dual edition window, so projects you are documenting now may be approved under NCC 2025. The edition is fixed by the day the construction certificate application is lodged, not by the development approval or the day work starts.

Start, stop and finish later. Progress is saved and the course stays in your dashboard.

Yes, on passing the final quiz. It is stored in your dashboard alongside your other CPD records.

Only to show you where they land. Houses and apartment units run on BASIX, which this edition does not change. The course concentrates on the changeover date, the two announced state variations, the BASIX and Part H6 pathway, and the rebuilt Part F1 and condensation provisions.

Yes. Team packs start at $579 for six courses shared across your practice.

No. Every course is product neutral. No membrane or wrap brands, no sponsor, no sales pitch at the end.
