Shed Information | Shedeye | Garages and Sheds � Is your shed a Class 1 or Class 10a Building?


Class 10a and Class 1 Buildings
When we are talking sheds, it is almost always the distinction between a Class 10a and Class 1a that cause confusion as Class 1b is unlikely to be a shed!
This makes the classification quite a simple task and it is all in the definition of Habitable and Non-Habitable rooms.

Class 1a building

If you have a room in your shed (even if the shed contains only a single room) that contains any of
  • Bedroom
  • Living Room
  • Lounge Room
  • Music Room
  • Television Room
  • Kitchen
  • Dining Room
  • Sewing Room
  • Study
  • Playroom
  • Family Room
  • Sun Room
Then you have a Class 1a building.

Class 10a building

And if all of your rooms in your shed contain only
  • Bathroom
  • Laundry
  • Water closet
  • Pantry
  • Walk-in robe
  • Corridor
  • Hallway
  • Lobby
  • Photographic darkroom
  • Clothes-drying room
Then you have a Class 10a building.Shed Information | Shedeye | Garages and Sheds � Is your shed a Class 1 or Class 10a Building?
