Changes to E3/AS1 internal moisture building code for finishes to floors:

The Functional requirement given in the clause E3.2 is the "building must be constructed to avoid the likelihood of –

• (a) Fungal growth or the accumulation of contaminants on linings and other building elements; and
• (b) Free water overflow penetrating to an adjoining household unit; and
• (c) Damage to building elements being caused by the presence of moisture."

There are two situations that need consideration when choosing flooring finishes.

• 1. Containment — water from Accidental overflow from a sanitary fixture that "could damage an adjoining household unit or other property."
• 2. Watersplash — "water can penetrate behind or under floor finishes in situations where watersplash occurs regularly (such as around shower enclosures or the fronts of built-in baths), unless these edges are sealed or coved."
