Go to the publisher before relying on a title

The app identifies source doorways while reproducing no standards text, clauses, tests, tables, figures, technical drawings or regulatory interpretations.

The app keeps each idea bounded: observe without touching, ask without diagnosing, check the current source, adapt the conversation and stop when authority or safety must take over.

NZS 4297:2024

EBANZ identifies Engineering design of earth buildings. The responsible engineer and authorised standard must guide any design use.

NZS 4298:2024

EBANZ identifies Materials and workmanship for earth buildings. No material test, recipe, acceptance value or workmanship rule is copied here.

NZS 4299:2024

EBANZ identifies Earth buildings not requiring specific design. The title does not determine that a particular proposal is within scope.
