Plagiarism
Plagiarism is using the words or ideas of others and presenting them as your own. Plagiarism is a type of
intellectual theft. It can take many forms, from deliberate cheating to accidentally copying from a source without
acknowledgement. In your assessments you must come up with your own ideas, however, at times you may
need to make reference to work that has been conducted by others. Important points to be aware of:
 Know what plagiarism is – refer to http://www.plagiarism.org/ for more information
 Reference your work / acknowledge all of your sources
“All of the following are considered plagiarism:
 turning in someone else's work as your own

 copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
 failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
 giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
 changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit
 copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you
give credit or not...”
Where a student plagiarises, the student will need to resubmit their work and will be given a first and
final warning for misconduct. If a student plagiarises a second time, their CoE may be cancelled
immediately for serious misconduct.

intended or designed for frequent wetting, either by direct moisture exposure or by condensation. This includes
areas such as bathrooms, showers, laundries, toilets, and other spaces where water is used or where moisture
levels are consistently high. Wet areas are subject to specific building requirements to ensure proper
waterproofing, drainage, and moisture management to prevent damage and maintain health and safety
standards within the building. The definition of a wet area is important for determining the appropriate building
regulations and standards that must be followed during design, construction, and maintenance.
Question 3 Give 5 examples of fitments installed in a wet area.
1
Shower Enclosure: This includes the shower screen or door, which is installed to contain water within the
shower area and prevent it from splashing onto other parts of the bathroom.
2 Bath: A bathtub is a common fitment in wet areas where users can bathe. It's typically made of materials that are resistant to water and
moisture.
3
Toilet Suite: This includes the toilet bowl, cistern, and associated plumbing fixtures. Toilets
in wet areas must be designed to handle regular water use and potential splashing.
4
Vanity Unit: A bathroom vanity consists of a sink (basin) and storage cabinets. These are
often installed in wet areas and must be water-resistant and durable.
5
Taps and Faucets: Water taps and faucets for sinks, showers, and baths are essential fitments in wet areas.
They should be designed to control water flow and withstand constant exposure to moisture.
Question 4 What is the maximum distance for stud spacings?
- Horizontal Noggings: Installed between vertical studs at top, bottom, and intermediate positions along the height of the wall to prevent stud rotation and
provide support for wall linings.
- Diagonal Noggings: Optionally installed in a zigzag pattern between studs to resist lateral movement and improve overall rigidity, especially in tall or
long walls.
- Purpose: Strengthen the wall frame, distribute loads evenly, and minimize deflection or deformation of the structure.
- Installation: Noggings are cut to fit between studs and securely fixed with nails or screws according to engineering specifications and building codes.
- Spacing and Size: Spacing between noggings depends on wall height and loading requirements, typically around 1200mm to 1800mm vertically.
- Material and Standards: Use same material as wall studs and follow manufacturer's recommendations and engineering guidelines for proper
installation to ensure structural integrity.
P a g e | 12
Question 5 Describe the placement of noggings in wall frame preparation.
- Identify Stud Positions: Locate the vertical studs in the wall frame.
- Determine Nogging Locations: Decide where noggings are needed based on wall height and structural
requirements.
- Cut Noggings to Size: Use the same material as the studs and cut noggings to fit between them.
- Install Horizontal Noggings: Attach horizontal noggings between studs at top, bottom, and intermediate
positions.
- Consider Diagonal Noggings: Optionally install diagonal noggings between studs for additional stability.
- Spacing and Placement: Space noggings according to engineering specifications, typically 1200mm to
1800mm vertically.
- Secure Installation: Use nails, screws, or appropriate fasteners to securely fix noggings in place, ensuring a
strong and stable wall frame.

screws for secure attachment.
3
Installation of Frame: Position and secure the frame in place against the walls and floor, ensuring it is level and stable.
4
Preparation for Bath Installation: Check frame stability and plumbing connections, ensuring
everything is ready for installing the bath unit.
Question 7 Why is the edge of the bath sometimes ‘checked in’ to notches in the stud wall prior to sheeting?
- Support and Stability: Checking in the edge of the bath into notches in the stud wall enhances
support and stability, preventing movement over time.
- Structural Integration: Integrates the bath securely into the wall framing, distributing weight and
reinforcing the structure.
- Space Optimization: Allows the bath to be positioned closer to the wall, maximizing floor space
in the bathroom.
- Waterproofing and Finishing: Facilitates the installation of waterproofing materials and ensures
a neat, flush finish for aesthetic appeal.
- Aesthetics: Creates a seamless and professional appearance by minimizing gaps and

unevenness between the bath and the wall.
P a g e | 13
Question 8 The supporting framework to the front edge of a bath sometimes has the jack studs or trimmers fixed
‘flat side out’. Why?
- Enhanced Support: Mounting jack studs or trimmers flat side out provides a wider, more stable
surface to support the front edge of the bath.
- Flush Installation: Creates a flush surface for the bath to rest against, ensuring a neat and
professional finish.
- Space Optimization: Allows the bath to be positioned closer to the wall, maximizing available
space in smaller bathrooms.
- Ease of Installation: Simplifies the process of securing the bath to the framework, ensuring a
secure and level installation.
- Waterproofing: Facilitates the application of waterproofing materials and finishing treatments

around the bath's perimeter, protecting against moisture damage.
Question 9 Outline the requirements for flashings in wet areas.

Material Selection: Choose durable, corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or coated
metals.
Waterproofing Function: Ensure flashings effectively divert water away from vulnerable areas like
joints and corners.
Location and Coverage: Install flashings to cover critical areas prone to water ingress, ensuring
complete coverage and overlap with adjacent surfaces.
Installation Details: Follow manufacturer recommendations and industry standards for secure
installation and stability.
Sealing and Waterproofing: Integrate flashings with waterproofing membranes or sealants to
create a watertight barrier.
Compliance with Building Codes: Adhere to relevant building codes and standards for proper
flashing installation in wet areas.
Maintenance and Inspection: Regularly inspect and maintain flashings to address any issues that
may compromise their effectiveness in preventing water damage.
Question 10 Provide 4 examples where sealants would be used in wet areas.
1
Around Bathtubs and Showers: Sealants are applied along the perimeter where bathtubs and shower trays
meet the walls and floors to prevent water leakage.
P a g e | 14
2
Around Sink Basins and Vanity Units: Sealants seal the gaps between sink basins or vanity
units and countertops or walls to prevent water from penetrating.
3
Between Tiles and Joints: Sealants are used in tile joints to waterproof the installation and
protect against water infiltration.
4 Around Plumbing Fixtures: Sealants seal around plumbing fixtures such as faucets, showerheads, and pipe penetrations to prevent leaks and
water damage.
Question 11 Name 2 commonly used wet area sheeting material.
1
Fibre Cement Sheet: Durable, moisture-resistant, and rot-proof. Commonly used for wet area
applications like bathrooms and laundries.
2
Waterproof Plasterboard: Specifically designed for wet areas with a moisture-resistant core
and special facing to repel water. Ideal for bathroom and shower installations.
Question 12 How is wet area sheeting fixed to the framework? What reference would give fixing instructions?
1. Fixing Wet Area Sheeting to Framework :Wet area sheeting is typically fixed to the framework using
appropriate fasteners such as nails or screws. The sheets are secured at regular intervals to ensure they are
firmly attached to the framework.
2. Reference for Fixing Instructions: Detailed fixing instructions for wet area sheeting can be found in
manufacturer's installation guides and relevant building codes or standards. References such as AS 3740

Part 2: Waterproofing and sheeting the bathroom
In masonry, rising damp occurs when ground water rises up the walls of a building by capillary action. What
are the symptoms of rising damp and what are the requirements under the Building Code of Australia and
AS3700 Masonry Code, for the prevention of rising damp?
Symptoms of Rising Damp:
- Tide marks or staining on interior walls near the floor.
- Musty odor in affected areas.
- Decay or damage to skirting boards and floor coverings.
- Efflorescence (white salt deposits) on walls.
- Deterioration of plaster or paint.
Prevention Requirements:
- Damp-proof Course (DPC):
- Install a physical barrier (DPC) at the base of masonry walls to stop moisture rising.
- Use materials like bituminous felt, polyethylene sheeting, or damp-proofing membranes.
- Installation of Flashings:
- Use flashings at vulnerable points to redirect water away from the wall.
- Ensure proper integration into the masonry construction.
- Proper Wall Construction:

- Construct masonry walls with good drainage and ventilation to reduce moisture retention.
- Seal mortar joints effectively to prevent water penetration.
- Site Drainage:
- Maintain proper site drainage to divert surface water away from the building.
- Keep gutters, downpipes, and drainage systems clear and functional.
- Compliance with Standards:

- Follow AS3700 Masonry Code guidelines for design, construction, and maintenance of masonry structures.
- Comply with BCA requirements related to moisture management and building durability.
- Regular Maintenance:
- Conduct regular inspections to detect and address moisture issues promptly.
- Repair leaks or drainage problems immediately to prevent water ingress.
Now that the frame has been constructed for the bathtub, sheeting and flashing can be fixed to the walls.
Identify an appropriate sheeting product to install and complete the table below, accordingly.
What sheeting product have you chosen?
Fibre Cement Sheet" (e.g., James Hardie HardieFlex™ or similar)
Provide a brief overview of the product
Composition: Fibre cement sheets are composed of a mixture of cellulose fibre, cement, sand, and water. They are
highly durable and resistant to moisture, making them suitable for wet area applications.
Water Resistance: Fibre cement sheets are inherently resistant to moisture, making them ideal for use in bathrooms
and other wet areas. They do not swell, warp, or degrade when exposed to water.
Installation: Fibre cement sheets are relatively lightweight and easy to install. They can be cut to size using standard
woodworking tools and secured to the framing using appropriate screws or nails.
Durability: Fibre cement sheets are resistant to fire, rot, and termite damage, providing long-lasting performance in
humid environments.
Finish Options: Fibre cement sheets come in various thicknesses and can be painted or tiled over, allowing flexibility in
design and finish.

Which Australian standard specifies the requirements for the physical elements of construction including
floors, walls, junctions and penetrations. The specific areas where these criteria apply include showers,
areas adjacent to baths and spas, general wet areas and areas adjoining other vessels such as sinks,
basins or tubs.
AS 3740-2010 "Waterproofing of wet areas within residential buildings
How must the wall be framed prior to the installation of the sheeting material?
Use suitable materials: The framing should use appropriate timber or metal studs that are
resistant to moisture and suitable for wet area applications.
Provide adequate support: The framing must be structurally sound and capable of supporting
the weight of the wall and any fixtures attached to it, such as shower screens or bath fittings.
Incorporate noggings and bracing: Horizontal and diagonal noggings should be installed between
studs to provide additional strength and stability to the wall structure.
Allow for proper drainage: The framing should be designed to allow for proper drainage and
ventilation to prevent moisture buildup and potential damage.
Accommodate waterproofing measures: The framing should accommodate the installation of

waterproofing membranes or damp-proof courses (DPC) as per the requirements of AS
3740-2010.
What are the floor/wall junction requirements for flashing?
P a g e | 42
The floor/wall junction requirements for flashing in wet areas involve:
1. Installing a waterproofing membrane or flashing.

2. Ensuring material compatibility with the waterproofing system.
3. Proper installation without gaps or overlaps.
4. Integration with wall waterproofing.
5. Designing with a slight slope for drainage.
6. Sealing and bonding of seams and penetrations.
7. Compliance with relevant building codes and standard
Outline the sheeting installation procedure.
1. Preparation: Ensure framing is complete and waterproofing measures are in place.
2. Cutting Sheet Material: Measure and cut sheets to fit wall dimensions.
3. Installation: Position and attach sheets to framing using corrosion-resistant fasteners.
4. Fastening: Use stainless steel screws or galvanized nails, spaced appropriately.
5. Sealing and Joint Treatment: Apply jointing compound or tape to reinforce joints and seal fastener heads.
6. Finishing: Sand, prime, and paint as needed for waterproofing and aesthetics.
7. Inspection and Testing: Check for defects, gaps, and perform water testing to ensure waterproof integrity.
What fasteners must be used?
Screws: Use stainless steel or corrosion-resistant screws designed for use in wet areas.
Nails: Use galvanized or stainless steel nails with annular ring shanks for better holding power.
