Awning Inspection and Structural Certification Process

Inline Building manages the full awning inspection and structural certification process end to end, across four stages:

Stage 1: Engineer inspection: assessment by a NER registered structural engineer.

Stage 2: Reporting: detailing of any rectification requirements.

Stage 3: Rectification works: carried out by a licensed builder.

Stage 4: Final inspection and certification.

The NER registered structural engineer inspects your retail awnings and their support structure, including load paths, fixings and anchorages. Where a support system cannot be readily inspected, sections of the awning are removed to allow adequate inspection without risk to the inspector or the public.

Awning Design Loads under AS/NZS 1170.1

AS/NZS 1170.1:2002, Structural design actions Part 1: Permanent, imposed and other actions, classifies street awnings as roof type R1. Table 3.2 specifies the following reference values for roof imposed (live load) actions:

Retail awnings accessible from adjacent windows, roofs or balconies: a uniformly distributed action of 1.5 kPa and a concentrated action of 1.8 kN.
Awnings accessible only from ground level: a uniformly distributed action of 1.0 kPa and a concentrated action of 1.8 kN.

How this fits the National Construction Code

These imposed actions are called up through the National Construction Code (NCC), published by the Australian Building Codes Board, which references the AS/NZS 1170 structural design actions series. The NCC 2025 edition has now been published, but adoption varies by state. In New South Wales, NCC 2025 is adopted from 1 May 2027; until then NCC 2022 Amendment 2, in effect from 29 July 2025, remains the applicable edition for awning design and certification in NSW.
