Skip to main content
The search box at the top of Standards and Codes searches the actual clause and table content of every standard your organisation has access to — not just standard titles or numbers. Type a term into Search content or documents — a code, a keyword, or a phrase like a check name. Results update as you type.
Search by concept, not just clause number. A search for “shear” surfaces every clause and table across every standard that mentions shear, from soil testing methods to weld design provisions — useful when you know what you’re checking but not which clause covers it.

Reading the results

Results are grouped by standard. Under each standard, you’ll see:
  • The standard’s designation, title, and status (for example AS/NZS 4600:2018 — Cold-formed steel structures [Current], Full Standard, publish/version details)
  • The top three matching clauses or tables, each with its clause or table number and heading — for example 5.2.6.2 Shear or Table 8.4.3 Shear plane surface coefficients
  • A See more link if a standard has more than three matches
Search results grouped by standard, showing the top three matching clauses and a See more expander under each Clicking any matching clause or table opens it directly in the clause viewer — see Browsing a Standard.
