36 Fundamentally noncompliant building work—Act, s 50 (4)
(1) An element of building work mentioned in an item in schedule 3,
column 2 is fundamentally noncompliant in the circumstances
mentioned in column 3 for the item.
(2) An element of building work on, or in relation to, a class 10a or
class 10b building is fundamentally noncompliant if—
(a) 1 or more elements not shown in the approved plans are added
to the building; and
(b) the building as altered by the work is a different type of building
to the building shown in the plans.
Example—fundamentally noncompliant class 10a or class 10b building
Plans show a carport without walls. During the construction of the carport walls are
added. This alters the building type from a carport to a garage, and means that the
building is fundamentally noncompliant.
