The codes are updated every three years and the latest revision is the 2018 version. Keep in mind that your jurisdiction may not have adopted the most recent version of the ICC codes so an older version may apply to your project.

Frequency of the NCC (and BCA)

The Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB) released the first performance-based Building Code of Australia, (BCA96) in October 1996. BCA96 was adopted by the Commonwealth and all states and territories by early 1998. In 2004 the BCA96 was amended to become BCA 2004 and from this point onwards the BCA has been re-released on an annual basis for purchase by industry.

The current edition, BCA 2014, will remain in place until BCA 2015 comes into effect on 01 May 2015. However, from 2016 onwards the BCA will move to a three yearly amendment cycle which is intended to make it easier for industry to maintain current and up to date with the BCA requirements. This is also expected to lead to greater consistency in building regulations across the states and territories by limiting the frequency and number of variations. It will also provide more certainty and stability to the building regulatory system in Australia.

NCC/BCA On-line Access

All future editions of the NCC / BCA commencing with the NCC 2015 will be made available for free On-line. This is expected to see an increase use and awareness of the BCA, given that access to the code is now free and not hundreds of dollars per year (as previous editions have been).
