Timber Doors - glazing
I'm interested to know whether AS2047, AS 1170.2 apply to glazed timber doors in designated cyclone areas? Building codes stipulate compliance is required with these standards. I understand AS1288 applies, but am uncertain about the other two.
Should AS2047 & AS1170.2 also apply to the same doors in non-cyclone designated areas?
Thank you,
Roy
