Climate in Injune

Injune falls in Subtropical (Zone 2): warm humid summer, mild winter. We take local climate conditions into account, and the panelling can be selected to suit — 50 mm EPS (R = 1.315 m²K/W) is standard, with upgrades to 50 mm PU (R = 2.083), 75 mm PU (R = 3.125) or 50 mm Silica Rock (R = 1.25). For developed countries we recommend the Silica Rock panels.

Wind — Region A — Normal

Injune is in AS/NZS 1170.2 Region A — Normal, the standard wind region covering most of inland and southern coastal Australia (design wind speed V₅₀₀ ≈ 45 m/s). Confirm the tie-down and bracing your site needs with a local engineer or certifier. Everything we build must meet, or exceed, your country's building codes.

Bushfire (BAL) considerations

Bushfire risk is generally lower in this warm, humid region, but dry-season grass fires do occur and bush-edge lots can still be mapped as bushfire-prone. Check your council's bushfire-prone area map.

Delivery

Getting a home from China to Injune

Each expandable home ships from Shenzhen in a 40' high-cube container, and two homes fit in one container. The nearest major container port to Injune is Port of Brisbane, about 570 km away by road. We recommend budgeting around USD $1,000–$2,500 for shipping to your nearest port — this does not include customs charges and import taxes. You must hire a customs broker in your country, who should also help with logistics from the port to your site.
