Final Quiz – NCC 2025 for Queensland: What Changes on 1 May 2027
For Queensland building designers, residential drafters and certifiers

NCC 2025 for Queensland

Queensland 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 Queensland approval either side of the date, which NCC 2025 residential changes reach the Queensland climate zones, what the rebuilt Part F1 now asks of balconies, podiums and concrete roofs, and how to use the months before the changeover.

Introduction and objectives

Why Queensland’s changeover has no dual edition window, and the four things you will be able to do by the end.

Module 1 9 min

The date, and what it governs

Tell which edition governs an approval either side of 1 May 2027, including amendments and staged approvals.

Module 2 12 min

The residential change set

Separate the NCC 2025 changes that reach Queensland from those keyed to climate zones six, seven and eight.

Module 3 12 min

Water management rebuilt

Put the 1 in 80 fall, the 70 mm step down and the monolithic hob on the structural substrate, not the screed.

Module 4 11 min

Using the runway

Plan the specification audit, detail library and client conversation before the date arrives.

Case studies 4 min

A Townsville balcony and a Toowoomba straddle

A balcony detail tested against the new numbers, and a project whose approvals land either side of the date.

Summary 2 min

Key takeaways

The checks to carry into every Queensland 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 Queensland under NCC 2022. Covers the changeover date, the residential condensation changes and Part F1 water management. It does not cover the NCC 2025 energy 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 Queensland, 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 that will need checking against the new edition.

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

Your balconies, podiums and concrete roofs are where the rebuilt Part F1 changes what you draw.

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

How it is recorded

A building designer

1 formal CPD point. Your certificate, the learning outcomes, the module outline and your quiz result are kept in your dashboard, so you can show what you studied if your CPD is audited.

An architect

1 formal CPD point. Aligned with NSCA 2021 performance criteria PC12, PC20, PC39, PC45 and PC46.

A certifier, drafter or practice principal

1 hour of CPD on NCC 2025 in Queensland, 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 Queensland approval and manage projects that straddle the changeover.
  • Identify which NCC 2025 residential changes reach Queensland and which apply only to climate zones six, seven and eight.
  • Distinguish the upper limit on vapour permeance in climate zone one from the lower limit in climate zone three.
  • Apply the rebuilt Part F1 provisions to balconies, podiums and concrete roofs over occupied space.
  • Assess a standard balcony detail against the 1:80 substrate fall, the 70 millimetre step down and the monolithic hob.
  • Plan the specification audit, detail library and fee work that the runway to 1 May 2027 makes possible.

Questions

Before you enrol.

Because the edition follows the approval. Queensland stays on NCC 2022 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.

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 where they touch the Queensland changeover. The course concentrates on the date, the residential condensation provisions and Part F1 water management.

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.
