Housing Industry Association: Building Information and Industry Resources

he Housing Industry Association (HIA) is Australia’s peak national industry association for residential building.

Its members include builders, contractors, developers, designers, manufacturers, suppliers and other professionals involved in Australia’s housing industry.

The HIA website contains a broad range of building and construction resources covering topics including building approvals, the National Construction Code, contracts, compliance, workplace safety, planning and changes affecting residential construction.

This makes it a useful industry resource for builders and building professionals as well as property owners wanting to better understand the residential construction process.

It’s important to remember that industry information does not replace project-specific building advice. Your building surveyor assesses whether proposed building work complies with the relevant Victorian building legislation, regulations and National Construction Code requirements.

If you’re preparing to build, renovate or extend, CFL Permits can help you understand the building permit process and documentation required for your project.
