Victoria Container Construction Information

Victoria is an Australian state at the southeastern corner of the mainland. It lies across the Bass Strait from Tasmania.

Despite being the 2nd smallest Australian state, Victoria is the most densely populated. That's primarily due to the fact that it is home to the Melbourne metropolitan area.

We've seen a number of container homes in Victoria, owing to the strong economy, diverse culture, and beautiful geography. It's a great place to live, and why not consider doing so in a container house after all?

For those curious about the building codes in Victoria regarding container homes, there are no big surprises. Like the rest of Australia, Victoria uses the National Construction Code, controlled by the Australian Building Codes Board.

This is administered within the state by the Victorian Building Authority and supported by numerous pieces of legislation including the Building Act of 1993. Ultimately, local officials are your point of contact and the primary enforcement agents of these regulations that are created and administered at the state and national levels.

Thanks to the uniformity, shipping container construction in Victoria is not much different than what is required in the other Australian states. And with numerous container projects already on the ground, the pathway has been proven!
