2.6 Design and Construction Standards
While a diverse range of designs of coastal nodes can occur, all designs must conform to the
relevant Australian Standards.
For access structures there are numerous manufacturers with designs and materials to cater
for a range of age groups and abilities.
While play equipment is designed essentially for play and enjoyment, modern equipment
also provides learning experiences and skills enhancement.
Safety is of paramount importance, with materials, design, manufacture and installation all
having safety as a priority.
