Climate in Kingscliff

Kingscliff 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 B — Intermediate

Kingscliff is in AS/NZS 1170.2 Region B — Intermediate, a higher wind exposure region covering parts of the NSW north coast and southern Queensland coast (design wind speed V₅₀₀ ≈ 57 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 Kingscliff

Each expandable home ships from Shenzhen in a 40' high-cube container, and two homes fit in one container.
