escription of work:
Establishing the risk
A risk assessment of the proposed design shall be carried out, using a building envelope risk matrix. This allows the risks
related to various features to be aggregated, resulting in a risk score for the design.
Figure 1 shows the process that shall be followed in order to assess the risk.
FIGURE 1
How to assess risk
(paragraph 3.1)
Applicant checklist
Item
Step One:
Detailed drawings.
Suitably detailed drawings are required to assess weathertightness risk. This documentation may
include a site plan, floor plans, elevations, details of junctions and penetrations, and the presence of
features like decks and pergolas.
S
tep Two:
Assess each external face against risk factors.
Assess the drawings for each external face to determine the risk score for each risk factor. These are:
• Wind zone
• Number of storeys
• Roof/wall intersection design
• Eaves width
• Envelope complexity
• Deck design
(Table 1)
Step Three:
Complete the building envelope risk matrix table.
Complete the “Building envelope risk matrix” (Table 2) for each face of the building.
Note : It is possible for different elevations to have different risk scores.
Step Four:
Determine suitable cladding.
To determine what cladding types are recommended with the risk score for each face. (Table 3)
The cladding selected must be appropriate for the score on that face, but can be beyond the
minimum required (ie cladding suitable for a higher score can be used).
Wall claddings - the following wall cladding systems are covered in the Acceptable Solution (E2/AS1)
a) Masonry Veneer Paragraph 9.2
b) Stucco Paragraph 9.3
c) Timber Weatherboards Paragraph 9.4
d) Fibre Cement Weatherboards Paragraph 9.5
e) Profiled Metal Wall Claddings Paragraph 9.6
f) Fibre Cement Sheet Paragraph 9.7
g) Plywood Sheet Paragraph 9.8
h) EIFS Paragraph 9.9
Other wall claddings are beyond the scope of the Acceptable Solution.

Definitions of risk
Table 1 sets out the definitions of risk levels relating to the location and design features of the building.
TABLE 1
Definitions of risk
(paragraph 3.1.1, figure 1)
A. Wind zone
Low risk
Low wind zone as described by NZS 3604
Medium risk Medium wind zone as described by NZS 3604
High risk High wind zone as described by NZS 3604
Very high risk Very high wind zone as described by NZS 3604
B. Number of
storeys
Low risk One storey
Medium risk Two storeys in part
High risk Two storeys
Very high risk More than two storeys
C. Roof / wall
intersection
design
Low risk Roof-to-wall intersection fully protected (eg hip and gable roof with eaves)
Medium risk
Roof-to-wall intersection partly exposed (eg hip and gable roof with no eaves)
High risk Roof-to-wall intersection fully exposed (eg parapets, enclosed balustrades or
eaves at greater than 90º to vertical with soffit lining)
Very high risk Roof elements finishing within the boundaries formed by the exterior walls (eg
lower ends of aprons, chimneys, dormers etc)
D. Eaves width (1)
(2)
Low risk
Greater than 600mm for single storey
Medium risk 451-600mm for single storey, or over 600mm for two storey
High risk 101-450mm for single storey, or 451-600mm for two storey, or greater than
600mm above two storey
Very high risk 0-100mm for single storey, or 0-450mm for two storey, or less than 600mm
above two storey
E. Envelope
complexity
Low risk Simple rectangular, L, T or boomerang shape, with single cladding type
Medium risk More complex, angular or curved shapes (eg Y or arrowhead) with no more
than two cladding types
High risk Complex, angular or curved shapes (eg Y or arrowhead) with multiple cladding
types
Very high risk As for High risk, but with junctions not covered in C or F of this table (eg box
windows, pergolas, multi-storey re-entrant shapes etc)
F. Deck design (3)
Low risk None, timber slat deck or porch at ground level
Medium risk
Fully covered in plan by roof, or timber slat deck attached at first or second
floor level
High risk Enclosed deck exposed in plan or cantilevered at first floor level
Very high risk Enclosed deck exposed in plan or cantilevered at second floor level or above
Notes:
(1) Eaves width measured horizontally from external face of wall cladding to outer edge of overhang, including gutters
and fascias.
(2) Balustrades and parapets count as 0mm eaves.
(3) The term deck includes balconies, as described in the Definitions.

The risk score
Table 2 sets out the risk matrix that shall be used to define the risk score for a building within the scope of the Acceptable
Solution. A risk score is calculated for each elevation of the building. Claddings are then selected from Table 3 according to
the risk scores, or the highest risk score may be used for all walls.

− The design may need changing to reduce the risk
− The building consent authority may require more comprehensive details and documentation

− The building consent authority, designer or owner may require more inspections
− A third party audit of the design may be required.
Notes:
1) The wall claddings in this table are limited to those covered in this Acceptable Solution.
