3 IntroductionThe aim of the Construction Handbook is to provide a comprehensive reference work on NewZealand building costs and other related information, for those involved in the various disciplines ofthe construction and property industries.

The Handbook has achieved a reputation as the leading authority on the various aspects ofconstruction costs in New Zealand, and is recognised as an authoritative text in the courts for casesrelating to disputes in respect of construction cost.

This edition, like previous editions, is committed to the dissemination of information necessary toimplement cost control, cost management and cost benefit studies effectively at all stages ofplanning and construction.

It should be stressed that attention must be given to the particular circumstances and conditions ofthe project being reviewed, when using the data contained in this Handbook.

Please read the “How to use this Handbook” section, and the introductory notes to each chapter, asan essential part of using this handbook effectively.

4 How to Use This Handbook4.1 Estimating—Building Costs Per Square Metre

This provides the average cost range for a wide selection of typical buildings. Whilst square metrecosts are recommended for use in initial feasibility studies only, they also provide the base figure inthe valuation of buildings. However, when so used they should be adjusted as described in thefollowing “Elemental Costs of Buildings”.

It should be noted that as the figures given are for a typical building on a flat site, adjustment mustbe made for such factors as sloping sites, ground conditions, unusual shape and other designconsiderations.

The costs given are based on the total floor area of all levels measured between the outer faces ofexternal walls. Refer to page 11-548 for information on Measurement of Buildings. Refer to page 1-10, “How to use this Section” for further information.

There is a worked example included at the end of this section. It gives a sample layout of anestimate, giving examples of the additional items to be added to the base m2 cost, in order to arriveat a comprehensive estimate. See “Worked Example” on page 1-31.

Estimating—Elemental Costs of BuildingsThis assists in the compilation of a more accurate cost per square metre, through evaluation andadjustment of the mean figures of the various elements of the foregoing typical buildings, to reflectthe particular building being examined. Examples of major variations from the typical are: specialfacade treatments, the extent of floor finishes, whether or not the building services include airconditioning, lifts, etc.

4.2 Estimating—Comparative CostsThe more detailed rates given in this section allow for a finer adjustment of the elemental costs,through the application of unit costs to a particular element, i.e. different design treatments such asfacades, interior finishes, etc.

The costs given are “all up” estimating costs, i.e. they include allowances for sundry labour itemssuch as forming angles, and other minor items. For items not covered in this section, it will benecessary to refer to the “Detailed Rates” section.

4.3 Detailed RatesThese provide a wide range of costs for particular items in all trades and services. The prices givendo not, unless stated to the contrary, include allowances for sundry labour items such as formingangles, and other minor items. If using these prices to complement the rates of “Estimating—Comparative Costs”, it will be necessary to make due allowance for such minor items. Dependingon the project, an allowance of between 5% and 10% would normally suffice.

At all times, when using any of the foregoing figures, the nature and specific requirements of theparticular project must be borne in mind.

4.4 Construction IndicesVarious published indices, relevant to the construction industry.

4.5 Regional IndicesAn indication of the locality adjustment factor to be applied to the figures for base cities, in order toarrive at a figure for smaller centres.

Building Costs Per Square MetreHow to Use This Section

ExclusionsPage 1-10

How to Use This SectionCosts given hereafter should be used for initial feasibility studies only, and are average prices forthe base building works, for typical buildings, at June 1st, within the city areas.

Add to the base building cost for exclusions listed below, and for any other factors deemed to benecessary for the completion of the project. Add additional allowances for work in country areas,See “Regional Indices” on page 6-501.

For a worked example of an estimate, See “Worked Example” on page 1-31.

Costs are based on the total floor area of all levels, measured over all external walls. Costs givenshould be adjusted to take account of such factors as sloping sites, foundation problems, higherwall to floor ratios, unusual building shape, small or cramped site, firewalls to boundaries,infrastructure upgrades to territorial authority services, remote locality, and any special designfactors where costs can vary from the range given.

Costs can provide no more than a rough guide to the probable cost of a building. Whilst in manyinstances, a single rate is sufficient to indicate the average cost, there are many other instances,such as banks, function centres, theatres, churches, residential buildings, where costs can varyconsiderably from the range given.

For a more detailed breakdown, and to assist in the compilation of a more accurate estimate, See“Elemental Costs of Buildings” on page 2-33.

Add to the costs given hereafter for:

• Heating, ventilating and air-conditioning, where considered necessary and not included—frequently a regional difference.

• All costs listed below as “Exclusions”.

ExclusionsCosts exclude

• land, demolition• balconies, covered ways, parking areas• external services more than 3.0m from the outside face of the building• data and telephone services• external works other than those immediately adjacent to the building• loose Furniture, Fittings or Equipment (FF&E).• professional fees, such as architect, engineer, quantity surveyor. See page 11-576• legal fees• Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Elemental Costs of BuildingsHow to Use This Section

DefinitionsPage 2-34

How to Use This SectionDefinitions“An element is a component part of a building or a development which, irrespective of design ormethod of construction, tends to perform the same function.”1

GFA = Gross Floor Area

PurposeThis section is intended as an approximate guide to the value of the various elements of thebuildings in Chapter 1. Item numbers and page numbers quoted with each elemental breakdownrefer to the equivalent items in Chapter 1. In all cases, refer to these items for the full descriptions ofthe building, particularly with regard to scope, inclusions and exclusions. Note that the elementalpercentages are indicative rather than definitive.

The “Total” cost given is the approximate mean of the cost range for the respective buildings inChapter 1. The breakdown into elemental costs enables evaluation and adjustment of the figureused for initial feasibility studies.

All costs within this section are those pertaining to Auckland. Please note that because thesefigures are based on Auckland buildings, adjustments may be required for items such as heating,etc., to reflect building practices in other areas.


• land, demolition• balconies, covered ways, parking areas• external services more than 3.0m from the outside face of the building• data and telephone services• external works other than those immediately adjacent to the building• loose Furniture, Fittings or Equipment (FF&E).• legal and professional fees• Goods and Services Tax (G.S.T.)

Worked ExampleThe percentages and $/m2 given in the following tables represent values relative to the GFA, orgross floor area, and not to the area of the particular element being considered. See the workedexample on the next page, where the Upper Floor element is repeated at the bottom of the table.

The Elemental Costs of $55.20/m2 and $127.05/m2, for A and B respectively, are not costs for asquare metre of actual upper floor for each of those buildings. Instead, they are a proportion of thetotal m2 cost, which, if multiplied by the GFA—which of course includes the ground floor—wouldgive the cost of the Upper Floors for those buildings.

For A, $57.96 x 600m2 GFA equals $34,776, which, if divided by the actual area of Upper Floor forthat building, i.e., 300m2, gives a cost/m2 for the actual Upper Floors of $115.92.

For B, $132.83 x 7,500m2 GFA equals $996,188, which, if divided by the actual area of UpperFloor for that building, i.e., 7,200m2, gives a cost/m2 for the actual Upper Floors of $138.36.

Comparative CostsIntroduction

PurposePage 3-63

IntroductionPurposeThis section is intended as a guide to the ‘all-up’ unit costs of various materials, systems andtreatments that make up the various elements of a building. It can be used as a half-way stepbetween the ‘square metre’ estimating methods of the Building Costs per Square Metre section,and a fully measured and priced estimate using the Detailed Rates section.

This section is particularly useful for budget estimating from preliminary sketch drawings, and withcare can give an accurate assessment of the cost of a final design.

ElementsAn element is a component part of a building or a development that, irrespective of the design ormethod of construction, tends to perform the same functions. For example, the Frame sectioncontains costs per metre for columns of reinforced in-situ concrete, precast concrete, and structuralsteel. For a fuller explanation of elements, See “Definition of Elements” on page 2-36.

RatesThe rates given in this section assume an average size of structure, type of construction and levelof difficulty. As the average building rarely occurs, it is necessary to analyse where the buildingunder consideration differs from the average. Once the differences have been analysed, thendecide which of the various elements of the building will be affected by these differences, and makedue allowances for such differences.

It may be necessary to obtain full details for the ‘abnormal’ elements, in order that the wholeestimate should have some real meaning. If such details are not available, then make a suitableallowance in the rates, for individual parts of the affected elements.

Some examples of differences, related to Elements, are as follows


• land, demolition• balconies, covered ways, parking areas• external services more than 3m from the outside face of the building• data and telephone services• external works other than those immediately adjacent to the building• loose Furniture, Fittings or Equipment (FF&E).• legal and professional fees• Goods and Services Tax (G.S.T.)

Submains SizingPage 3-98

18.2 Submains Sizing• The following information is for estimating purposes only and is not suitable for design.

• Exclude hot water unit, stove/oven or air conditioning where not required.• Divide the estimated maximum demand by 3 for three phase power supplies.• The air conditioning allowance is based on providing a nominal 80m2 to 100m2 of air conditioned space

per dwelling by utilising room air conditioners with cooling capacity totalling 13kW net (44,400 BTU/hour net) (i.e. 75% of total 24A load).

• Note: Minimum size for consumer mains is 4mm2.

CriteriaPage 3-99

19 Lifts and Escalators19.1 Criteria

There are many criteria to consider before selecting the number of lifts and the type of lifts requiredfor a particular building. The following is a brief explanation of those criteria to assist with estimatingonly, and should not be used for design or specification purposes.

Number of People Using the Lifts. Detailed traffic studies of the building population are carriedout to determine Peak Loadings, Cross Peak Flows and Peak Loading Times.

These parameters will vary depending on various factors, all of which play a significant part indetermining lift selection. Some of these factors are:

• The type of building, for example, hotel or office block• The nature of use of each floor, for example, carpark, retail, etc.• The tenancy arrangement of the building, for example, multi-level tenancies or inter-floor

trafficNumber of Floors to Be Serviced. Lifts can generally be classified in three types:

• Geared Traction Lifts: Suitable for buildings up to 12 floors.• Gearless Lifts: Suitable for lifts over 12 floors• Hydraulic Lifts: Suitable for buildings up to 4 floors.

Waiting Interval. The time the lift system takes to respond to a call at the principal lower entryterminal.

Handling Capacity. The system’s ability to move an agreed percentage of the building populationin a given period.

Number of Lifts—Estimating Guide for Offices. The following information is for approximateestimating purposes only. For accurate assessment of lift size, speed and numbers required referto a lift manufacturer or consulting engineer for traffic study analysis.

Building Consent FeesPage 4-126


1.19 Building Consent Fees• Building consent fees went up on 1 July 2007 for

some, if not all, councils. • Methods of calculating fees were also reviewed

in many cases. • It is not possible to summarise building consent

fees here, as the information available from councils varies between full disclosure on their website to very little information available.

• The information that is freely available tends to be mind-boggling in its complexity.

• In all cases, please refer to the relevant Council for confirmation of fees.

• Websites for some Councils follow. If fees are available, it is indicated. On the CD version, these are clickable links. Note, some of these links will change over time.

InsurancesPage 4-127

1.20 InsurancesContractors All Risk InsuranceThis type of policy provides cover to the Contractor during the construction of a building fordamages caused by fire, rain, wind, explosion, accidental or malicious damage, burglary and theft.

The extent of the policy should be checked and additional cover arranged to suit each particularcontract as necessary for items such as: plant, tools and equipment, vibration and removal ofsupport, piling work, temporary buildings and structures, plate glass fixing and removal, demolitionand clearance of site, indemnity to the principal, damage to underground installations

Blanket Cover—This is substantial annual cover which is pre-arranged and based on projectedturnover. It is adjusted retrospectively when actual turnover is calculated for the year. Cover can beset at the anticipated maximum level or alternatively at a lower or average level and specialextensions applied for only when required.

Separate Cover—A separate cover for each contract is negotiated making allotment of costs perproject easier to establish.

Premium RatesThese vary considerably depending on the type of construction, duration of cover, builder’s trackrecord, amount of self insurance, etc. Insurance companies consider contract works under fourmain categories. Rates shown as a percentage of contract value (including consultants fees,temporary works, demolition and removal of debris) are a guide only, and more competitive ratesmay be achieved on application.

Public Liability InsuranceThis cover is calculated on the contract value for the project. In the case of sub-contractors andlabour only gangs, the Builder may effect cover OR require sub-contractors to provide evidence ofthe existence of insurance cover which complies with the terms of the head contract.

The following are examples of the order of cost of this item.

Civil works Bridges, dams, roadwork 0.50–0.80%Building works Commercial and industrial 0.20–0.50%Building works Residential 0.15–0.20%Engineering works Erection and installation of plant etc. 0.14–0.18%

22 Partitions22.1 General Notes• Timber framing is MSG8, KD, H1.2 RP• All plasterboard rates allow for taped and

stopped joints to level 4 finish.• For plasterboard linings without framing, Refer

to page 4-387• M2 rates allow for 2.7m or 3m wall height. • Rates for partitions with heights requiring non-

standard wallboard sizes may vary considerably, due to greater wastage factors.

• No allowance for baffles in ceiling spaces.• Lining requirements are indicated thus:

2/1/10mm GIB® =two faces/one layer/10mm GIB®, ie, each side of wall has one layer of GIB®

2/2/13mm GIB® =two faces/two layers/13mm GIB®, ie, each side of wall has two layers of GIB®

1/1/10mm GIB® =one face/one layer/10mm GIB®, with other face/two layers/13mm GIB®,1/2/13mm GIB® ie, one side of wall has one layer of GIB®, the other side has two layers

rating (i.e. compressor rating) or a NET rating (the actual room cooling ability of the unit). • NOMINAL capacities may have to be de-rated by up to 20% to obtain the actual cooling ability of the

unit.• RAC units range between 1.5kW (net) and 14kW (net). To obtain full specifications for each unit, consult

the manufacturers and suppliers.

General NotePage 4-356

31.2 General Note• Rate buildups for this section are being

completely revised. This change should be complete by the 2009 edition.

• In those items completed so far, the labour hours used in rate buildups are now shown.

• Metres of cable used for item buildups are also shown in the right hand column, where relevant.

• Amend labour and cable allowances as necessary to suit particular situations.

31.3 11KV Transformers/Switch Gear• Electrical supply companies generally provide

transformers, switch gear etc., and charge high voltage customers.

• Low voltage customers generally incur costs only for work from the boundary other than transformers and switch gear, i.e. cabling, trenching, etc.

31.4 11KV High Voltage Cable• Installed in position complete by electrical

supply company from boundary where applicable

31.5 Service Mains—Overhead, Copper• Allow for costs and charges associated with

the provisions for supply company's equipment, e.g. cabinets, link frames, pole fuses, transformer components, substation construction, cable ducts, trenches, incoming cables, conduits, and draw-in pits etc., as required.

Inland Revenue GuidelinesPage 4-456

44 Vehicle Reimbursement Rates44.1 Inland Revenue Guidelines

Employers may use published mileage rates to reimburse employees who use their own vehiclesfor work purposes.

Under the Income Tax Act 2004, employers may determine the amount of employeereimbursement exempt for tax purposes when employees use their own vehicles for workpurposes.

Employers can reimburse an employee based on actual expenditure incurred by the employee - orby making a reasonable estimate of the expenditure incurred. A 'reasonable estimate' recognisesthat employers have differing business needs and that a 'one size fits all' rate may not necessarilybe accurate.

Employers may use rates published by a reputable independent New Zealand source,representing a reasonable estimate—e.g. New Zealand Automobile Association Inc mileagerates—to reimburse staff using their private motor vehicle for work purposes.

The mileage rate used must be a reasonable estimate. In establishing a reasonable estimateregard should be given to the nature of the business and the type of employee vehicles.

Employers may also continue to use the rates published by Inland Revenue in the February 1996Tax Information Bulletin (Vol 7, No 8).

This gives employers four options when reimbursing staff for business use of a private vehicle:

• actual expenditure incurred by the employee • an employer's own reasonable estimate of expenditure incurred by an employee • published mileage rates, as long as they represent a reasonable estimate • the rates published by Inland Revenue in the February 1996 Tax Information Bulletin. Employers may apply published mileage or other rates effective immediately. The other optionshave been available to employers for a number of years.

Mileage rates for vehicle expenditure incurred by self-employed are being reviewed by InlandRevenue.

44.2 Inland Revenue Reimbursement Rates. The two options are a two tier scale or a flat rate. The rates apply to average operating costs ofcars, regardless of size, age or value. Amounts paid in excess of approved levels must be treatedas salary or wages, with PAYE deducted. Shareholder employees can be reimbursed up to amaximum of 5,000km per year. Check online at www.ird.govt.nz for updated rates.

44.3 Two Tier Scale Motor Vehicles Motor CyclesAnnual work related kilometres1 to 3,000km 62 cents per km 31 cents per km3,001km and over 19 cents per km 10 cents per kmThe first tier rate is a full-cost recovery rate, and includes estimated overheads. The second tier rate is a running cost reimbursement rate only.

44.4 Flat Rate Motor Vehicles Motor Cycles

Average Range(Min–Max)

6.3 Workshop FabricationExplanation of Fabrication Labour• The following labour constants use modern estimating methods, whereby it is the work content in

detailing, fabricating, and erecting individual pieces of steel that determine costs, and not weight. • Fabrication labour is determined by the quantity of labour tasks in each steel assembly, for example,

each column, beam, brace, assembly, or bracket. Much of the labour is contained in the connections and other “labours” such as assemblies, transitions, precambering, stiffener plates, and penetrations.

• These “labours” are similar to those given in NZS4202, which also explain fabrication work content.• The SCNZ Estimating Guide and SteelEst programme uses the labour in connections and other work in

a similar way to the labour tasks below.• Structural steel fabricators often use hours per tonne as an estimating shortcut. This can be reasonably

accurate, but only when used across a complete project so that the variances in fabricating different pieces is averaged in the overall estimate.

• The fabrication of different steelwork pieces often varies from 5 to over 200 hours per tonne, despite overall weighted averages of 15 to 30 hours per tonne for an entire project. This makes pricing of light weight secondary steel items, often encountered in variations, difficult without quantifying the labours.

• See below for further information on individual and workshop productivity factors.Plates, brackets, and fly braces

Productivity factors—against the constants aboveGeneral: market, complexity or regional 0.85–1.33Site fabrication and welding 2.00–4.00

Notes• The average constants are for high repetition portal frame and high rise type work. The ranges are for

differences in piece size, detail, repetition, and fabrication methods.• These constants are based on conventional fabrication methods used by most fabricators,. ie manual

gas cutting and magnetic broach drilling, and semi-automatic "mig" or "flux core" welding.• With semi-automated saw and drill lines output is much higher but machine costs are higher, and

generally the market does not differentiate costs because semi-automation affects only part of overall fabrication.

• The constants include for reading fabrication drawings, stacking and sorting materials, marking out, turning, grinding edges and welds, operator setting up, servicing gear such as welders and grinders, and QA including average rework.

• These constants are "whole of job", and hence will differ from spot check times which will not be representative of a complete job due to the tendancy not to include downtime and variances in productivity.

• Repetition affects productivity in different ways, and for some labour operations can have a significant impact on output, while other labours produce only slight improvements. A high degree of difficulty can also have a large impact on output, for example, very detailed drawings, angled assembly, low repetition of detail, complex set out.

• Welding output varies according to the length of welds and the amount of shifts to different pieces being welded, and handling. Repetition alone has little impact on welding output, unless it is practical to use a different welding method. Structural steel usually involves small runs, with greater attention to weld ends around plate edges, and corners. Thus, where long runs of continuous welding are involved output is generally higher, particularly if a different welding method can be used.

Density and Load FactorsPage 5-484

21 Plant ConstantsThe tables given hereafter are a guide only and apart from “Trucks and Haulage”, are based oninformation given in the Reference Handbook issued by the “Caterpillar Tractor Co”. All plantreferences are to “Caterpillar” equipment.

21.1 Density and Load FactorsWhilst measured quantities are generally ‘in situ’ or ‘in place’ quantities, the actual quantity to beremoved and/or spread and levelled is, in practical terms, the ‘loose’ volume.

The following table indicates the approximate density (weight) and load factor of commonmaterials.

21.2 BulldozersProduction—Maximum Uncorrected

The “Dozing Production” curves, Refer to page 5-485, indicate maximum uncorrected productionfor tracked machines with straight blades and based on the following conditions.

Production Example• Determine average hourly production of a D8, moving hard-packed clay, average distance of 45m down

a 15% grade, using a slot dozing technique. • Estimated material weight—1600 kg/m3 (loose). Operator skill level—average. • Job efficiency is estimated—50 min/hour. Uncorrected Maximum Production—570 m3 (loose)/hour.

Correction Factors Summarised:Hard-packed clay is “hard to cut” material 0.80 Operator skill level—average 0.75Grade Correction (from graph above) 1.19 Job Efficiency—50 minutes per hour 0.84Slot Dozing 1.20 Weight correction (1370/1600) 0.86

Production Calculation = Maximum Production x Correction Factors= (570 m3 (loose)/hour) x (0.80) x (1.19) x (1.20) x (0.75) x (0.84) x (0.86)= 353 m3 (loose)/hour

The volumes given hereafter are arrived at by dividing the rated capacity of the truck by the loose orinsitu densities of the various materials as listed in the “Density and Load Factor” table.

22.2 Hauling TimesBased on light traffic and travelling at an average of 35 km/hour. Includes loading time of twominutes, travel to dump time of four minutes, and return time.

Adjust for:• Medium traffic + 20% on travelling time• Heavy traffic + 40% to 50% on travelling time• Waiting time at loading point• Note: The above times are a very approximate guide only as location, route and time of day

can have an appreciable effect on the figures given.

Explanation of Indices UsedPage 6-493

1 Indices1.1 Explanation of Indices Used

Labour Cost Index—LCIThe LCI—Salary & Wages series measures movements in salary and ordinary time wage rates,and overtime wage rates. Series represented:

• SE53E9–All Sectors Combined: Group 15—Construction• SE43E9–Private Sector: Group 15—ConstructionThe latter is the index ‘L’ referred to in NZS 3910:2003—Appendix A, Cost Fluctuation Adjustmentby Indexation.

The SE59E9–LCI—All Costs Combined series includes non-wage labour-related costs: annualleave and statutory holidays, superannuation, ACC employer premiums, medical insurance, motorvehicles available for private use, and low interest loans, and is published as at June each year.

Consumer Price Index—CPIThe CPI provides a measure of the changes in the prices of goods and services to consumers, and,in 2006, underwent a major review of method and items surveyed. Series represented:

• SE9A–All Groups

Capital Goods Price Index—CGPIThe CGPI records the average level of productive capital assets paid by New Zealand industries.Series represented:

• S2BA–Non-Residential—Shops and Offices• S2AA–Residential—Dwellings and Out-buildings• SGC–Other Construction (includes transport ways, pipelines, electrical works, earthmoving

and sitework)

Producers Price Index—PPIThe PPI measures prices relating to the production sector of the economy.

Output indices measure changes in prices received by producers, input indices measure changesin the cost of production, excluding labour and capital costs. Series represented:

• SNE–Construction Industry Group—InputsThis is the index ‘M’ referred to in NZS 3910:2003—Appendix A, Cost Fluctuation Adjustment byIndexation.

Opus Construction Cost Index—CCIThe Opus CCI was a civil engineering index produced by Opus International Consultants Ltd(formerly Works Consultancy Services Ltd) and is now discontinued.

Construction IndicesCost Indexation Formula

Indexation FormulaPage 6-499

3 Cost Indexation Formula3.1 Indexation Formula

NZS 3910:2003 contains provision for calculating and adjusting contract values for cost fluctuationsin accordance with published indices.

Taken from NZS 3910:2003 with permission from Standards New Zealand. NZS 3910:2003 can bepurchased from Standards New Zealand at www.standards.co.nz.

Appendix A, clause A2

C = V

C = Cost fluctuation adjustment for the quarter under consideration.

V = Valuation of work shown as payable in any Payment Schedule in respect of work having beencompleted during the quarter under consideration subject to A3, but without deduction of retentionsand excluding the Cost fluctuation adjustment.

L = Labour Cost Index; Private Sector: Industry Group—Construction: All Salary and Wage Rates:published by Statistics New Zealand, for the quarter under consideration.

L1 = Index as defined under L but applying for the quarter during which tenders close.

M = Producers Price Index; Inputs: Industry Group—Construction, published by Statistics NewZealand, for the quarter under consideration.

M1 = Index as defined under M but applying for the quarter during which tenders close.

3.2 ExampleContract for $6,000,000 of civil works, tendered in August 2000.

V = $1,550,000 (value of work carried out in quarter ended June 2001)

L = 1131 (LCI index for quarter ended June 2001)

L1 = 1115 (LCI index for quarter ended September 2000)

M = 1130 (PPI index for quarter ended June 2001)

M1 = 1085 (PPI index for quarter ended September 2000)

C = $1,550,000 x

C = $1,550,000 x

C = $1,550,000 x

C = $1,550,000 x 0.0306247

C = $47,468.29

Therefore, the cost fluctuation adjustment for the quarter under consideration is $47,468.29.

Compensating for Base Date ChangesPage 6-500

3.3 Compensating for Base Date ChangesPeriodically Statistics New Zealand redevelop indices and ‘recalibrate’ them back to 1000. A prorata adjustment will allow conversion of the new indices for periods occurring before the new basedate applies.

Example. CPI was redeveloped and recalibrated in June 1999. In the original series, the June1999 value is 1097. In the new series, the June 1999 value has been re-set to 1000.

The March 1997 value is 1082 in the original series. What is the equivalent value for the March1997 index in the revised series beginning June 1999?

• June 1999 index, reset to 1000 = 1000 divided by original June 1999 index value = 1097

• multiplied by March 1997 index 1082 = 0.911577 x 1082• Equivalent value for March 1997 index

in the revised series = 986

Expressed as an equation, thus:

Note: this calculation should not be applied to the PPI index, which was redeveloped in 1998.Statistics New Zealand provided back calculations for two years—included above (note that thesedo not quite match the original figures—due to the redevelopment).

1 Wage and Charge Rates1.1 Employment Contracts

The coming into force on 15th May 1991 of the Employment Contracts Act 1991 caused mostbuilding contractors to enter into individual employment contracts with their employees. This Actwas replaced by the Employment Relations Act 2000, effective 2 October 2000. The terms andconditions of all existing individual or collective employment contracts remained the same on 2October 2000.

Any new collective or individual employment agreement after this date needs to comply with therequirements of the Employment Relations Act and subsequent amendments. For moreinformation, Refer to page 12-596.

1.2 Employing a Labour-Only ContractorHiring a labour-only contractor in the building industry is common practice, and is a method of hiringin labour specifically for particular contracts, rather than having waged employees. The labour-onlycontractor can be terminated when the work has finished whereas the waged employee has rightsunder the Employment Relations Act 2000.

If an employer hires a labour-only contractor, then that contractor will fall under the withholdingpayments regulations. This means the contractor receives withholding payments instead of a salaryor wage, and the employer is required to deduct withholding tax. The Inland Revenue have specificrules regarding the payment of labour-only contractors, and these are summarised here. Theemployer must:

• get a completed Tax code declaration IR330 form from the contractor. The contractor must fill in their IRD number, use the WT tax code, and enter a withholding payment category of “labour-only contracts in the building industry”.

• make deductions from the withholding payments at a flat 20% rate. Earner’s levy and student loan repayments are not deducted from withholding payments. If the contractor has not completed an IR330 form, then the employer needs to make deductions at the no-declaration rate of 35%.

• calculate the withholding tax on the GST-exclusive amount, if the contractor is registered for GST.

• keep the tax invoices that the contractor provides to the employer.• include the details of withholding payments on the Employer Monthly Schedule IR348 and

Employer Deductions IR345 forms.• keep the withholding payments and the deduction records with the rest of the employers

wage records.If the contractor holds a special tax rate certificate, the employer should deduct withholding tax asspecified on the certificate.

The employer does not have to deduct any withholding tax if the labour-only contractor is acompany or holds a current Certificate of Exemption IR331.

Sample Wage CalculationsPage 7-504

1.3 Sample Wage CalculationsThe following calculations are an indication only of a build-up of typical wage rates. Due toprevailing economic conditions these may be subject to large fluctuations as actual paid rates willvary between employers, building sites and localities. The local availability of construction work willalso affect, to a lesser extent, actual paid hourly wage rates, and to a greater extent, tender ratesand daywork rates.

For the purposes of this publication the following terms apply to the different types of hourly rates:

• Hourly paid wage rate (employment contract)• Labour only paid rates (negotiated contract)• Tender or contract rates (net)• Daywork or charge out rates (includes overhead and profit)

These tables are examples of wage rate calculations. Actual rates will vary throughout the country.

1.4 Hourly Paid Wage RatesHourly paid wage rates of pay payable to operatives in accordance with collective agreement. Note,these are indicative rates only. Rates have moved considerably over the last few years.

• carpenter hourly rate $25.00• labourer hourly rate $16.00

1.5 Labour Only Paid RatesLabour only paid rate of pay established as a flat rate per hour worked, without any other paymentsfor holidays, sick leave, etc. This means that the worker gets paid for each hour worked and nothingelse. Under this heading the employer is responsible for workplace accident and public liabilityinsurance premiums which will add to the rates stated.

• carpenter hourly rate $35.00• labourer hourly rate $25.00

Charge Out Rates & ACCWage and Charge RatesTender or Contract Rate

Page 7-505

1.6 Tender or Contract RateTender or contract rate per hour cost to a building contractor. This is used for tender calculationsand is calculated separately for each trade. It includes leading hand supervision only. Foreman’sand other supervision is normally costed in the Preliminary and General. For tendering purposes aweighted average of carpenters and labourers is used, as calculated below.

Note: Profit and overhead added is added on at the end of the estimate to produce a quotation ortender amount.

1.7 Productive HoursThe contract rate is derived from the total weekly cost of employing an operative, divided by theproductive hours actually worked. These productive hours are less than the paid worked hours, dueto a paid morning and afternoon break, plus starting and stopping, totalling 8 times a day. Wet timeis also included as an average allowance.

1.8 Daywork or Charge Out Hourly RatesDaywork or charge out hourly rates are used for variations that cannot be measured and rated, andfor “charge up” type contracts. An applicable profit and overhead percentage is added.

Because daywork or charge out rates cover the entire working day, the total weekly cost is dividedby the paid working hours.

Charge Out Rates & ACCLabour Only—Residential

Insurances and LeviesPage 7-508

2 Labour Only—ResidentialA regular query is ‘what is the going labour-only rate for house construction?’. Often the builder isbeing asked to carry out the carpentry work for a $/m2 rate, and wants to know if the rate is fair.Without knowing the scope of work, it is extremely difficult to agree or disagree with any given rate.In all cases, we recommend that readers, before accepting any rate, calculate the cost of theproject, using established estimating principles and allowing for appropriate overhead and marginamounts, in order to see for themselves if the proposed rate is fair.

Our only comment regarding actual rates is to state that in virtually every enquiry, that is, one to twoper year since 1995, the rate suggested has been between $55 and $65 per m2. In that sameperiod, the hourly charge out rate has increased significantly.

This section is intended to provide some tools for the reader to calculate their own rate for theparticular project being considered. The worked example allows for both $ per m2 and total $ perproject, whichever is preferred.

Based on experience, decide if the resulting calculation of working weeks is a realistic time frame inwhich to complete the project. If unsure, look back over records of previous jobs to assess how longthey took.

Other costs and factors to consider: Downtime, wet weather delays, waiting on subs/othercontractors, vehicles, cellphone charges, equipment costs such as tools and plant, either your ownor hired in.

Method One—“Top Down”Top Down—Working back from the offered rate Scenario One Scenario Two

Purpose: To work out if the rate is one you should accept, that is, can carry out the work for and make a profit.

It is good practice to do a full measure of the work and quantities involved, and rate out the labourhours from established labour constants for residential work. On the other hand, if you have areliable feel for how many weeks or days a project will take a gang of say 2, 3 or 4 staff, then that isan equally valid method of estimating. If you've done identical or similar projects in the past, thenyou should have records that will give the likely manhours.

It is recommended practice to use one method as a cross-check for the other, ie, work out bothways and see if you come up with the same answer.

For this example, we will assume you have already established the labour hours for the projects.

Method Two—“Bottom Up”Bottom Up—Working out the cost, in order to establish the $/m2 Scenario Three Scenario Four

Purpose: To build up a labour schedule for the project, establish the cost and then work out the selling price for the workStep One Work out how long the project should take. For this example, we will assume you have already established the labour hours for the project, and checked it against similar projects from your files.

Step FourAdd labour cost ‘F’ and establishment costs ‘G’ H $18,975 $40,943Step FiveCalculate preferred profit margin J 10% $1,898 $4,094Add ‘H’ and ‘J’ to give total including profit margin K $20,873 $45,037Step SixDivide the total ‘K’ by the m2 for the project. This will give you the $ per m2 rate

• The labour hours used in this calculation are merely examples, and not an indication of how long a particular project will take.

Charge Out Rates & ACCAccident Compensation

IRPC Act 2001Page 7-511

3 Accident Compensation3.1 IRPC Act 2001

• The Injury Prevention, Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2001(IRPC) came into effect on 1 April 2002, and replaced the Accident Insurance Act 1998.

3.2 Before the IRPC• 1999-2001: Accident Insurance Act 1998, with some aspects amended by Accident

Insurance Amendment Act 2000, Accident Insurance (Transitional Provisions) Act 2000. ACC—the Accident Compensation Corporation—restored as the sole provider of workplace accident insurance.

• 1998-1999: Accident Insurance Act 1998. Employers must have workplace accident insurance cover for employees.

• 1992-1998: Accident Rehabilitation and Compensation Insurance Act 1992.State versus private accident insurance is an area of fundamental policy difference for somepolitical parties, and the above changes follow changes of Government between 1992 to 2005.

3.3 Levy YearUnder the IRPC, all payments to ACC for accident cover are called levies (previously premiums).Accident cover is provided for a levy year, which is a 12-month period running from 1 April to 31March. ACC WorkPlace Cover levies pay for the current and future cost of work-related injuryclaims that occur in the levy year.

At $2.95 per $100—the Levy plus Residual &HSE combined—the building rate has been reducedfrom a combined rate of $3.23 in 2007/2008.

3.4 Invoicing for LeviesEmployer levies are invoiced in two parts, firstly a provisional invoice for the current levy year, 1April–31 March for the WorkPlace Cover levy. Secondly, an adjustment invoice for the previouslevy year, 1 April–31 March for the Residual Claims levy, incorporating the HSE levy, $0.05 per$100 of liable earnings (Health and Safety in Employment).

In 2007, employers were contacted by ACC to confirm their classification. IRD can alter thisprocess, despite ACC confirmation, resulting in levy invoices based on incorrect rates.

3.5 Earner LevyAll employees must pay an ACC earner levy to cover the cost of non-work injuries, plus an earners’account residual levy—to fund the cost of non-work injuries claimed from 1 April 1992 to 30 June1999. These levies are incorporated into the PAYE tables, and collected by Inland Revenue onbehalf of ACC, and have been relatively stable at between $1.20 and $1.40 per $100 of earnings.The maximum amount of earnings—per individual—liable for the combined earner levy deductionis $102,922 for the 2008/09 financial year. This has increased every year, eg, the maximum liableearnings in 2000 was $83,017, in 2004 it was $88,728, and in 2007/08 year it was $99,817. But it’snot a tax!

• Earner levy—$1.40 per $100 of earnings—reduced from $1.403 in 2007/8 levy year.• Earners’ account residual levy—included

3.6 Self Employed PersonsSelf employed persons may choose between ACC CoverPlus or ACC CoverPlus Extra for all workand non-work injuries, except for motor vehicle accidents which remain covered by ACC.

IntroductionPage 11-539

1 Cost Planning Procedures1.1 Introduction

For the purposes of studying the concepts of cost planning, the cost of a building is defined as theamount the client or building owner will have to pay the contractor to have the building constructed.

Under the traditional tender system, the contractor is required to submit a quotation for constructingthe building. This may be based on a schedule of quantities and allowances made for overheadsand profit. Several quotations or tenders may be submitted and one such tender, probably thelowest one, will represent the cost to the building owner.

Cost planning is the process of designing to, or within, a pre-calculated cost, determined by thefinances available, so as to obtain optimum value for available money, whereby a building ownerobtains a building tailored to the budget. The success of a good cost plan will be measured by itssimilarity in both value and content to the successful tender price.

Most building owners are compelled to adopt tight financial control on all costs used in feasibilitystudies, if the intended revenue obtained from buildings is to be achieved. Because building costsare a substantial part of any feasibility study, it follows that a logical process of establishing a targetcost at the outset of any project, and the realisation of that same cost on completion, is essential ifcredibility is to be maintained.

Cost planning should not be seen as a restrictive influence on the work of the designer, but as apositive, predetermined, disciplinary process, where money is consciously allocated to the variousbuilding elements or features, so as to obtain a building conforming to budget but possessingembellishments in certain areas, if so intended.

The system flow chart shown on the next page, indicates the cost planning processes related to thearchitectural stages of a typical project from inception through to tender. Note: the processesshown in this chart are being superseded by the 5 step process outlined under DesignDocumentation, Refer to page 11-541.

1.2 Cost Plan StagesPreliminary Design. The cost planning process is carried out by a quantity surveyor, in closeliaison with the architect, and includes the establishment of a cost limit or budget at inception. Thisprocess proceeds on to the cost evaluation of design alternatives, construction systems andstandards of finish and services pertinent to the particular project. These are then included in apreliminary cost plan, at the end of the preliminary design stage.

Developed Design. As final sketch plans are completed, the preliminary cost plan is expanded intoa budget estimate and cost plan, containing separate budget costs for all the building elements,reflecting the various design inputs from the architect, structural engineer, mechanical andelectrical consultants, etc. As the detail design proceeds, these cost elements are monitored and,where an element appears to be exceeding the budget, recommended remedial action is submittedto the architect by the quantity surveyor, with the object of staying within the overall budget.

Detailed Design. Usually the point of no return—the project cost is committed at this stage and canonly accept major alterations at the expense of disruption to documentation activities, and resultantdelays. This stage sees the final cost check in the form of a detailed pre-tender elemental estimate,followed by quantity surveyor pricing of the schedule of quantities, if commissioned. If the variousstages of the cost planning activities are efficiently carried out, and close liaison and co-operationmaintained with the design team, then the final outcome of tenders should conform to theestablished budget. The building owner can then proceed immediately to signing a contract with thebuilder, satisfied that all reasonable steps have been taken to ensure a good budgetary and designconclusion.

Construction ManagementDesign Documentation


2 Design Documentation2.1 Introduction

For years the building sector has lacked a common language on the varying types of designservices available, as well as their applicability to particular building requirements. This has createdmisunderstandings for designers and builders, and for their clients. From misunderstanding, costlyproblems emerged.

The industry (through the Construction Industry Council) has picked up this challenge anddeveloped a set of guidelines, which clearly define the various design stages possible in a buildingproject, as well as comprehensive checklists on the range of services available. This will be ofimmense benefit to clients who wish to discuss their particular needs with builders, architects,engineers, or others involved in building projects.

2.2 Design Documentation GuidelinesThe Guidelines are intended as a general checklist and benchmark for building projects, and havebeen prepared primarily for building works, as distinguished from civil works, industrial processesand infrastructure projects. They are intended to be tailored to the appropriate level of projectcomplexity and service agreed with the Client; the tick boxes can be used to define the service. Thepurpose of the Guidelines is:

• to clearly define responsibilities from the outset and communicate these to all parties involved in the project;

• to define the Scope of Service with the Client and communicate this to all parties to the Design Process;

• to provide a level playing field in achieving appropriate remuneration for the standard of service required; and

• to provide a Quality Assurance reference for users.

2.3 Use of the GuidelinesThe Guidelines outline the design process that all building projects go through irrespective of theprocurement methodology or programme. The Guidelines differentiate the design process anddeliverables into the following five phases:

• Concept Design• Preliminary Design• Developed Design• Detailed Design• Construction DesignFor a brief description of each phase, Refer to page 11-543. Download the guidelines from theConstruction Industry Council website, at http://www.nzcic.co.nz/Design.cfm

Design is an evolutionary process, developing from a set of client driven objectives. Within each ofthe stages there often can be substantial changes. However, ideally the fundamental elements ofthe previous stage should not be overturned.

The guidelines can be used to define the responsibilities of the various parties throughout thedesign process. The level of service provided by a designer could be curtailed at any of the stages.However, the parties completing the design process will need to carry out the remaining steps in acoordinated manner to achieve an effective design.The document has separate Guidelines for the primary design disciplines of architecture, structure,mechanical and electrical engineering etc.

Use of the GuidelinesPage 11-542

Who has created the Guidelines? The document has been drafted by a working party endorsedby the Construction Industry Council (CIC). The working party has consulted widely to ensure theguidelines are workable and benefit the entire building industry, with representation from thefollowing bodies:

• ACENZ (Association of Consulting Engineers of New Zealand)• HERA (Heavy Engineering Research Association)• IPENZ (Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand)• NZIA (New Zealand Institute of Architects)• NZIOB (New Zealand Institute of Building)• NZ Property Council• NZIQS (New Zealand Institute of Quantity Surveyors)• NZBSF (New Zealand Building Subcontractors Federation)• PMI (Project Management Institute)• RMBF (Registered Master Builders Federation)The guidelines have been co-ordinated in process and terminology to be consistent for allparticipants in the building industry. The Guidelines have strong support from the professionalbodies listed above, and there is a shared intent that the Guidelines become an industry-widedocument.

How does the document relate to existing professional body documents? The principalpurpose of the document is to comprehensively define the Design Phases. As such, it is hoped thatthe document can be integrated into existing professional body agreements for provision of designservices.

How does this document relate to the Management and Administration of the DesignProcess? Design management and administration may be undertaken by any of the consultants;Client, Project Manager, Contractor or specialist Design Manager. Because of the varied nature ofcommission structure, the task of design management is not addressed in these guidelines.However, the following comments are provided:

• Design management may overlap with some of the design processes listed, but may also include the direction of consultants, the chairing and minuting of regular project meetings and administration of the design delivery programme.

• The Design Manager may also assist in managing information flow from the Client.• Responsibility for the Design Management role needs to be confirmed at the start of the

project and the scope of this role either included in the Consultant’s service or defined separately.

Description of the Design PhasesPage 11-543

2.4 Description of the Design PhasesConcept Design generally involves the application of a design ‘idea’ to the practical provision of afacility. It represents a phase where sufficient design concepts are developed for the Client to beable to establish the feasibility of the project, the development potential of a site, or to be able toselect a particular conceptual approach that the Client wishes to pursue. The Concept Designphase may be used to define or verify the Brief, and may often involve the testing of differentapproaches/options. During this phase, ideas (concepts) are developed through open interactionby the team of the key elements of the project.

At the end of this phase, the basic building blocks of the project are defined in general terms andco-ordinated between the design disciplines.

Concept and Preliminary Design phases are often combined on smaller projects.

Preliminary Design generally involves the further refinement of the preferred Concept to facilitatetesting it against inputs from the team, including cost estimates and regulatory approval. It mayprovide sufficient information for the communication of the design to a third party for marketing orconsultation purposes.

During this phase the project concepts are developed into firm schemes, where the relationshipand sizes of spaces and facilities are defined, and co-ordinated between the design disciplines.However, resolution of individual details that do not impact on the key elements are generally leftfor the next design phase. At the end of this phase, the project should be clearly defined.

Developed Design is the phase where every component of the design is investigated, verified andco-ordinated. This may involve production of detailed information including sketch details of allsignificant componentry and their inter-relationships. The Developed Design phase is where theindividual technical experts prepare the necessary documentation to define the scope of all buildingelements, major input is required by all designers.

The completion of the Developed Design is the critical point in a project. The scope of the project isfully defined and as a result, cost estimates can be prepared on an elemental basis. DevelopedDesign generally provides sufficient information for the client/user to clearly understand theaesthetics and functionality of the building, internal spaces and facilities.

On many projects the Developed Design documentation is issued for Building Consent and/or‘Guaranteed Maximum Price’ (GMP) tender. Coordination between the design discipline istherefore critically important at the end of this stage.

Detailed Design generally provides a level of documentation that clearly defines the design,specification and extent of all building elements. The design should be comprehensively co-ordinated with other disciplines. However, the documents produced in this phase may not directlybe able to be built from. Changes to anything but detail at this stage are very disruptive, expensiveand often result in further problems as by now the project has become very complex and it is hardto identify all the ramifications of changes. Detailed Design is the phase most commonly used toobtain a Tender for the construction of the works.

Construction Design is where the requirements defined in Detailed Design documents areintegrated with construction requirements such as site conditions, proprietary and performancedesign elements, erection requirements and fabricated shop drawings to create drawings that canbe directly ‘built’ from. (Note: Shop drawings are produced during this stage).

Construction ManagementCost Management

Preliminary Cost AdvicePage 11-544

3 Cost ManagementThe control and allocation of monies on construction projects is generally the responsibility of theprofessional quantity surveyor. Areas of service offered by the quantity surveyor are:

3.1 Preliminary Cost AdviceFrom the first concept, quantity surveyors

• give essential, practical advice on the cost of a project• advise on feasibility and economics of construction projects, forms of contracts, methods of

construction • prepare cash flow analyses.

3.2 Cost PlanningThe prime objectives of cost planning are: to build a project which is economical within designparameters, optimising value for money; to control cost within the agreed budget; and to achieve abalance of expenditure between the various functional elements of the project.

3.3 ProcurementOn completion of the cost plan, the project moves into the construction stage, which generallybegins with some form of competitive tendering if the building owner's interests are to be fullyprotected.

There are many forms of contractual arrangement, each of which has its own advantages anddisadvantages. One role the quantity surveyor undertakes is to identify the form of contract whichbest suits the building owner's requirement; for example, cost reimbursement; lump sum traditionaltendering; negotiated construction management; package deal and methods of fast tracking.

Professionally prepared schedules of quantities are an effective cost saving device. They relieveeach tenderer of the onus and therefore the cost of compiling their own, a cost which couldotherwise be passed on to the client in the tender price. Schedules can frequently provide agreater spread of sub-contract prices, resulting in cost savings to the client.

Schedules also provide the necessary feedback to monitor cost over-runs and form the basis forprocessing progress claims, variations to the contract and ultimately the final account. Thisdocumentation process is the last but vital part of the pre-contract cost control service, in itself, itproduces significant savings for the client.

3.4 Post Contract AdministrationThe monitoring and reporting of actual cost outlays, unexpended monies, variations and regularplotting of costs versus targets ensures that an up-to-date position can be known at all times. Tomany clients a major under-run in time can be as problematical as a major over-run. Only byregular monitoring can such events be properly identified and avoided.

3.5 Other ServicesQuantity surveyors have diversified their activities into other related areas such as: project co-ordination, project management, project planning, insurance valuations, research and statistics,specified schedules, design-build evaluation, analysis for taxation purposes, arbitration advice,market research and analysis on new products and systems, computer software development andmarketing, data collection and dissemination.

Construction ManagementSpecifications

Different Ways to SpecifyPage 11-545

4 Specifications4.1 Different Ways to Specify

Common ways to produce project specifications are:

Using raw data. Creating every project specification from raw data would clearly be unwieldy,unnecessary and expensive. However this approach still applies when specifying a new or unusualproduct, system, or process.

Adapting a previous specification. Adapting a specification from a previous project is anapproach commonly employed. However this is unlikely to provide a specifier with thecomprehensive range of selections and options needed for specifying a new project. This approachcan also offer a false impression that the content is up-to-date, when it may not have beenindependently reviewed for some time.

This approach is inherently flawed and should be avoided, except for projects which closely mirrortheir predecessor. Even then, a better approach is to create an office master as a stable base foreach project type.

Using an office master. Most medium-sized and larger design practices maintain some form ofoffice master specification system. This may range from a system based on a series of standardsections, designed to be interleaved with project-specific selections and clauses, through tosophisticated computer-based systems containing a full range of clause and section options, forindividual customising by the project specifier.

Using a master specification system. A master specification system takes this structuredapproach one step further. By maintaining access to a wide range of industry expertise, a masterspecification system provider can offer greater certainty that the system’s database will accuratelyreflect industry thinking. A further critical ingredient is the ongoing maintenance of the masterspecification system’s reference base and technical content. Standards, codes, Acts of Parliament,industry references and accepted construction practice are all subject to continuing developmentand change.

4.2 Approaches to Specifying Different approaches to specifying can be employed within a single master specification system.

The subtractive approach. Where the specifier deletes what doesn’t apply, using a series ofstandard work sections. This approach is particularly suited to preparing specifications based on arequirement to comply, or to confirm compliance with, a prescriptive code or universal standard.

Even under New Zealand’s performance-based approach to building controls, project specificationswill still contain a strong prescriptive element. Most projects will also require the addition of project-specific data and/or instruction, making a purely subtractive approach unworkable.

The additive approach. Where selections are made from a library of standard clauses, with thespecifier adding project clauses and selections.

The additive approach allows the specifier to ‘mix and match’ clauses from the total specificationdatabase to accurately reflect the project in hand. Being able to add project-specific selections andproject-based descriptive clauses, enhances the ability of a specifier to produce a truly customisedspecification.

Recommended approach. Master specification systems such as MasterSpec®—particularly whilethey are presented as a series of individual word processing files—are generally customised usinga mixture of subtractive and additive techniques.

2008


MasterSpec® SystemsPage 11-546

Other advantages of a master specification system. A master specification system, particularlya nationally recognised system, provides uniformity in presentation and formulation and by usingstandardised terminology and definitions, ensures that they are more widely accepted andunderstood.

Having access to such a system allows specifiers to keep up to date with changes in regulations,codes, standards, work practices, products and technology. The system will also reflect an industryconsensus on what comprises current best practice, through the provision of updated text,guidance notes and regular news bulletins on topical issues.

Risk management. The use of a nationally recognised system is an important risk managementdevice. It encourages the production of consistent, concise and easily understood specificationclauses, minimises ambiguities—which are generally held against the specifier in a court of law—and offers clients greater certainty that their specification will produce the quality required andexpected.

Master specification systems achieve this by maintaining a library of standard clauses, developedusing available knowledge and experience—local and overseas—from which project specificationscan be created. Such nationally based systems can also be instrumental in bringing aboutstandardised descriptions of the same thing for the same purpose, adding to clarity ofinterpretation.

4.3 MasterSpec® SystemsMasterSpec® STANDARD—for all commercial, industrial and larger residential projects

MasterSpec® ENGINEERING—a subset of STANDARD, focusing on civil and structuralengineering aspects of commercial, industrial and larger residential projects

MasterSpec® BASIC—for residential and smaller commercial projects

MasterSpec® MINOR—for minor residential alterations.

The systems are technically compatible. Where appropriate STANDARD (includingENGINEERING) and BASIC sections can be used to specify different parts within the same projectspecification.

Form and format. MasterSpec® systems are provided as word processing files. All MasterSpectext is formatted and styled ready to use in association with the functions provided with your chosenword processing programme.

The MasterSpec® format. A major concern for users of specifications—contractors, territorialauthorities, subcontractors and suppliers—is first discovering details of a particular requirement orsupply item, and then being confident that all aspects have been found.

Construction managers need to know what tests are required, while subcontractors need to knowwhether an approved installer is called for. Suppliers need to find information on for example fixingsand flashings needed to complete a particular building element. The MasterSpec® Format helpsthis to occur naturally and easily.

The MasterSpec® Format uses the internationally-recognised terms: GENERAL, PRODUCTS andEXECUTION, with a fourth SCHEDULES added when needed.

Master specification systems. Construction specifications must be:

• technically accurate• up-to-date• simple to use• easy to coordinate with the project drawings• have a logical relationship with other related documents, including schedules of quantities

and standard conditions of contract and tender.

2008


Coordinated Building Information—CBIPage 11-547

4.4 Coordinated Building Information—CBIMasterSpec® employs the CBI classification and coding system. CBI was produced in 1998 byACBINZ, an organisation representing NZIA, NZIQS, RMBF, ACENZ, BRANZ, SNZ, BOMA, IPENZand NZIOB. These 9 bodies represent all facets of the building industry.

CBI is consistent with CAWS (Common Arrangement of Work Sections) the classification systemused by the UK National Building Specification. CBI is also compatible with the UK classificationsystem Uniclass (Unified Classification for the Construction Industry) with the CBI headingsreplacing the CAWS headings used in Table J.

The CBI classification system is suitable for all information relating to the construction industry: -Specification and drawings, technical and research libraries, trade literature and associatedpublications

Work section codes. Work sections are identified by a 4-digit numeric code. The first digit signifiesthe class:

The remaining three digits define each work section within the overall class designation. Forexample:

Preliminaries and general sections. Associated with, but not forming part of CBI, is a standardformat for preliminaries and general issues.

Construction ManagementMeasurement of Buildings

Physical ContentPage 11-548

5 Measurement of Buildings 5.1 Physical Content

Schedule of Quantities. A schedule of quantities is a document which is procured whenmeasuring the physical content of a building. It is set out in sections either by trade, element orphysical location and describes the individual items of work which make up a complete building.The quantity of each item is also given where applicable. Its main use is for tendering purposes,assessment of variations and progress claims and cost analysis of building projects.

Schedule of Provisional Quantities. Similar to the above, a provisional schedule gives only anassessment of the quantities involved as it may not be possible to determine them accurately at thetime of preparation. Actual quantities are then recorded when each item of work has beencompleted.

Specified Schedule of Quantities. Accurate quantities are given in the normal manner as per thenormal schedule and are complemented by a detailed specification of the items, which is includedeither as a preamble to each section or as a part of the description of each item.

Methods of Measurement. It is necessary for a standard to be employed when measuring thequantities for each item. Standards New Zealand, in conjunction with the New Zealand Institute ofQuantity Surveyors, have produced NZS 4202—The Standard Method of Measurement of BuildingWorks—which is the most commonly used guideline for measurement of building works.

5.2 Gross Floor Area (GFA)This method has been adopted for use by the New Zealand Institute of Quantity Surveyors for thepurpose of building cost analysis. A full explanation of the method is given in their “ElementalAnalysis of Costs of Building Projects”.

Unit of measurement: square metres (m2)

The gross floor area is measured over all the external walls of the building, over partitions,columns, internal structural or party walls, stair wells, lift wells, ducts, enclosed roof top structuresand basement service areas. All exposed areas such as balconies, terraces, open floor areas andthe like are excluded.

Generally, projections beyond the outer face of the external walls of a building such as projectingcolumns, floor slabs, beams, sunshades and the like shall be excluded from the calculation of grossfloor areas.

Where the outer face of the external walls of a building are not regular vertical surfaces, the overallmeasurements shall be taken at floor levels and a note made of the vertical profile of the wall line.Where mezzanine floors occur within a structure the gross floor area of this mezzanine shall beadded to all other complete floor areas and become a constituent part of the gross area.

• Executive Director, New Zealand Institute of Quantity Surveyors Inc., P. O. Box 10 469, The Terrace, Wellington. Tel 64+4-473-5521

5.3 Rentable Area This method has been adopted for use by the Property Council of New Zealand Inc., for thepurpose of determining rental values, based on the publication “Guide for the Measurement ofRentable Areas”. Portions of this guide are reproduced with the permission of Property Council ofNew Zealand Inc.

The guide is primarily directed to the measurement of floor space in commercial, industrial andretail buildings and may be used for such purposes as determining rentable areas, projectfeasibility, building efficiency, operating and cost apportionment and other related matters.Applicable throughout New Zealand, the guide is invaluable to property owners, developers,investors, lessees and all those involved in the provision and utilisation of space.

Construction ManagementMeasurement of Buildings

Rentable AreaPage 11-549

The method of measurement is broken down into four categories to simplify its application todifferent building types and various lease arrangements.

Unit of measurement: square metres (m2). Measurements are generally taken at a height of 1.5metres above the floor.

Enquiries to:

• National Office, Property Council of New Zealand IncorporatedP. O. Box 1033, Auckland. Tel 64+9-373-3086

Method of Measurement 1. Office Accommodation—Entire Building/Whole Floor

This category of accommodation is intended to apply to modern multi-storey office buildings. Thismethod of measurement can be applied to any office accommodation in an office building of similartype. It may be used for measuring the rentable area of an entire building or the rentable area of awhole floor. This recommended guide is based on the principle that any office building will have thesame total rentable area whether it is leased as an entire building, or on a whole floor or part floorbasis.

1.1 The rentable areas of a building is the total of all the rentable areas.

Method of Measurement 2. Office accommodation—Part Floor

This category of accommodation is found in modern multi-storey office buildings where one or morefloors are sub-divided to facilitate leasing to more than one lessee on any floor. The sum of therentable area for each part floor lessee shall equal the total rentable area of that particular floor,had it been leased on a whole floor basis. In order to determine the rentable area for each part floorsuite, it is necessary to measure the nett area for each suite to which is added an apportioned prorata share of the total service area on that floor.

2.1 The nett area for each suite shall be measured to the centre of partition walls. Other wallmeasurements shall be taken as for method 1.

Method of Measurement 3. Retail Premises

This method of measurement is intended to apply to all retail premises whether freestanding,individual premises comprising a group of premises, or part of a shopping complex/shoppingcentre, as well as those retail areas which may form a component of a commercial office building ormultiple use complex.

3.1 The rentable area is the floor space confined within the building and available for exclusiveuse by the lessee.

Method of Measurement 4. Industrial Type Buildings

This category covers a wide section of commercial and industrial uses but the types of buildingenvisaged bear a similarity in that they are mostly, though not necessarily, a single storeyfreestanding structure with office accommodation built in, attached or adjacent.

4.1 This category consists of those buildings or premises in which more than 50% of the totalrentable area is used for industrial, warehousing, storage or similar use.

Construction ManagementFeasibility Studies

OverviewPage 11-550

6 Feasibility Studies6.1 Overview

The purpose of feasibility studies is to calculate the return which will be derived from a particularproject.

The return can be expressed as an annual percentage return, or as a terminal percentage return.An annual percentage return will be used where the project will be generating rent for the owner,while a terminal return is used when the project is to be sold.

The calculated returns are important only for comparisons, i.e., to compare one project with anotheror to compare one project's return with the return that would be achieved by investing elsewhere.

6.2 Spreadsheet VersionsSpreadsheet versions of the following tables are included on the CD-ROM, there is a link on themain CD-ROM Handbook navigation page.

Construction ManagementContractual Systems

Traditional Tender SystemPage 11-553

7 Contractual SystemsA brief commentary on the contractual arrangements commonly available to prospective buildingowners considering property development or construction. Composite forms or variations of thesebasic forms may be used.

• traditional tender• competitive negotiation• direct negotiation• cost reimbursement• design and build• construction management. Refer to page 11-556.

The major determinants in selecting a particular contractual form are:

• Time available to complete the project, this includes the design period.• Cost• The extent of information which will be available at the time of selecting a form of contract.It is often a balance of these constraints which determine which form of contract is best suited toeach particular project. As this decision is often critical to the success of a project, it is advisable toseek advice from a professional or principal consultant before choosing the form of contract.

7.1 Traditional Tender SystemTenders may be called for the construction on either:

• a “selected” basis—where tenderers are restricted in number by a process of selection according to their qualification and experience in the type of project in question.

• an “open” or public basis—where no such restriction exists and public accountability and total market exposure is paramount, sometimes at the expense of suitability and selective expertise.

The building owner appoints a project design team comprising an architect, structural engineer,quantity surveyor, mechanical and electrical engineers and other specialist consultants as required,depending on the nature and complexity of the project. The building owner commissions the fulldesign documentation of the project within the cost parameters set by the quantity surveyor’s costplan.

Tenders, usually “lump sum”, are then invited from building contractors to ascertain the price of theworks, prior to the final decision to proceed. This lump sum can be either a “fixed price” or maymake provision for fluctuations in material, plant and labour prices. The fixed price lump sumcontract will have no adjustment for price fluctuations.

On awarding the contract to the successful tenderer, the site is handed over to the buildingcontractor and the contract administered by the architect on behalf of the building owner inaccordance with the contract documents.

The construction work is carried out by the building contractor generally using sub-contract trades.

The design performance obligations rest with the design team and any risks are invariablyunderwritten by the individual team members’ professional indemnity insurance. The construction(contractual) risks rest with the building contractor.

The building owner is therefore reasonably well protected from risks inherent in design andconstruction.

2008


Competitive NegotiationPage 11-554

Key points

• price is known before building owner is committed to construction—allowing remedial action to be taken if the price exceeds budget expectations.

• price is the “true competitive market” price.• building owner is insulated, for the most part, from “risks”, or at least has contractual

recourse.• design and tender documentation is complete before proceeding to tender, avoiding the

incidence of major cost variations.

7.2 Competitive NegotiationThe building owner appoints a consultant team to prepare schematic design drawings up topreliminary working drawings stage, outline specification including a schedule of construction andfinishes, a provisional schedule of quantities and a form of a building contract.

Tenders are called from a selected list of building contractors, for the following elements:

• Preliminaries—i.e. Builders price for site mobilisation, day to day running and final demobilisation, construction plant including cranes, scaffold, etc., builders insurances, temporary and on-site services, water, phones, electricity, periodic and final clean-up, and builder's site administration, including supervision.

• a tendered percentage or lump sum for margins to be based on the value of work when known.

• a tendered percentage or lump sum for off-site overheads.• a tendered percentage or lump sum for attendance on sub-trades.• statement of the time required to complete the project accompanied by the builder's bar chart

or other programme scheduling.Tenders, submitted in accordance with the above requirements, are evaluated by the consultantteam and a recommendation is made to the building owner. On a recommendation in favour of oneof the building contractors being accepted, that builder then joins the project team as a buildingconsultant and his practical building expertise is then used in final design documentation before heproceeds to perform the building works.

The appointed builder prices documentation as it becomes available for final acceptance by thebuilding owner. This is usually done by the builder calling competitive bids from, say, three sub-contractors for each trade package.

Key points

• this is essentially an accelerated system of procuring a contract, the main object being to install a selected builder on site and working, before formal design documentation is complete, resulting in an earlier completion and all the advantages stemming therefrom.

• the selected builder becomes a member of the team and is available to add his expertise to the advantage of the project.

• sub-contract prices are tendered just prior to when needed, thereby obtaining current market prices.

2008


Direct NegotiationPage 11-555

7.3 Direct NegotiationDirectly negotiated contracts are similar to “competitive negotiation” except that instead of callingtenders from a selected list of contracts, one contractor will be chosen and negotiations will takeplace with this one contractor only.

Care is needed in selecting a particular contractor but it will probably be someone with whom thebuilding owner has worked successfully in the past.

Key points

• As for “competitive negotiations”. • This method has the effect of further speeding up the start of construction as little time is

spent in evaluating tenders.

7.4 Cost ReimbursementThe building owner selects a building contractor who contracts to perform the building works inaccordance with the contract documents at “cost” plus a fee which is related in various ways to thecontract. The documents can be based on any one of the contract conditions mentioned earlier. Inthis arrangement it is extremely important to define “cost”. The “fee” is then added, to arrive at atotal contract price. The “cost” usually includes all on-site activities, whilst the fee covers off-siteoverheads and profits. The fee can be in the form of:

• percentage of cost (e.g. Cost plus 10%)• fixed fee (e.g. Cost plus $20,000)• fluctuating fee (known also as target estimate)Another derivative of cost reimbursement contracts is a schedule of rates or unit price contract.This is based on approximate quantities being priced by the contractor, and these price rates arethen applied to actual quantities of work done, to arrive at a total cost of construction.

7.5 Design and Build ContractThis usually commences when a client approaches a design and build contractor with a brief for aparticular project. Alternatively the client may be approached by a design and build contractor witha development proposal for his site.

The design and build contractor submits a preliminary proposal incorporating outline aspects for theintended design and construction. This proposal would include estimates of time and cost tocomplete the project. For the investment client the proposal may also incorporate projected returnfigures for the project.

If the preliminary proposal is accepted by the building owner, the design and build contractor wouldwork up and submit a final development proposal. This would incorporate in many instances, aguarantee of a maximum price for the project and offer the building owner a share in any savingsachieved in such maximum price.

The final development proposal would comprise schematic design drawings to a reasonablyadvanced stage, and an outline specification incorporating a schedule of construction and finishes.

The system may be either with or without a savings participation clause.

7.6 Construction Management ContractWhen embarking on this form of contractual arrangement, the building owner would usually appointa project manager and the other members of the construction team.

Once the initial schematic design is formulated a construction manager is appointed to the team toassist in design considerations and to provide practical building expertise, procedures, etc., to theproject team.

Construction activities are sub-let to firms or companies specialising in the various trade workrequired. These trades are selected on a fully competitive, delayed letting basis, and enter intodirect contract agreements with the client.

2008


DefinitionsPage 11-556

A general foreman supervises all on-site activities; a cost clerk and a limited number of carpentersand labourers are also engaged to attend on other trades and execute minor sundry works.

Costs are controlled by the quantity surveyor, with a continuous audit of actual costs incurred.Payments are made to trade contractors, suppliers and “on-site” employees by the client.

7.7 DefinitionsConstruction Management. The construction manager—an individual, consultancy firm, or abuilder—is selected and appointed by the proprietor, or the project manager on the proprietor'sbehalf, and carries out the work normally performed by a builder in a traditional system.

S/he organises, manages and co-ordinates the construction of the project on a consultancy basisfor a fee. The construction manager does not have any direct commercial interest in the workcarried out by sub-contractors, as all sub-contracts are between proprietor and sub-contractor.Thus s/he neither benefits nor suffers from the contractual risks attendant upon a traditionalcontract.

Project Management. A project manager is an agent of the proprietor and assumes the role of theproprietor in a construction project where the proprietor lacks the technical and organisational skillsfor the task. The project manager becomes responsible for preparing a brief, and appointing andco-ordinating the consultants.

The proprietor's requirements are conveyed to the project manager who ensures that they areacted upon by the consultants and contractor. S/he may, if engaged for a total service, beresponsible for such matters as;

• site selection• feasibility studies • preparation of consultants briefs• selection of consultancy team • negotiation and documentation of conditions of engagement• evaluation of design profiles• supervision of documentation• implementation of programme• selection of contractual system• contract financial control• supervision of letting• many other services. It should be noted that the engagement of a project manager is not affected by the contractualarrangement adopted. S/he can serve the client in virtually the same capacity whether it be atraditional “tender” or a “construction management” contract.

NZS 3910:2003, originally introduced in February 1988, updated in 1998, and again in 2003, theseconditions supersede NZS 623 and NZS 623P as being the most popular form of Conditions ofContract for engineering works.

It provides a standard form of general conditions of contract written in plain English forincorporation into construction contract documents. Usually with this contract form, the Contractorconstructs the works in accordance with the design provided by the Engineer, however it may alsobe suitable for contracts works for which the Contractor, wholly or partly, has design responsibility.

It sets out the contractual relationship between a client and the Contractor and defines their rights,obligations and communications. A range of disputes resolution procedures are provided. Paymentprocesses are prescribed that comply with the Construction Contracts Act 2002.

NZS 3910 includes General Conditions, conditions of tender and forms for special conditions,contract agreement and bonds for contracts and principals. Insurance forms are included for thepurpose of providing outlines of the insurance cover that is provided for a contract.

NZS 3915:2000—Conditions of Contract for Building and Civil Engineering Construction—where no person is appointed to act as engineer to the contract

NZ 3915:2000 provides a standard form of general conditions of contract written in plain English,for incorporation in building and construction contract documents. It sets out a direct contractualrelationship between a client and the builder or contractor and defines their rights, obligations andcommunications. It is based on NZS 3910, but without an Engineer as technical advisor to the clientand administrator of the contract. It provides a range of disputes resolution procedures.

It also includes conditions of tender and forms for special conditions, contract agreements andbonds for contractors and principals.

Construction ManagementConstruction Periods

Schedules to General Conditions of ContractPage 11-562

10 Construction PeriodsThe time required for the construction of a building is so closely linked to the time required fordesign and documentation, that project period is probably a better term than construction period.There is, however, an important reason why the two are separated. During design anddocumentation, the capital expenditure on a project is far less than during the construction phase,and thus in commercial building projects, it is important that the construction phase is kept as shortas possible.

The time required for design and documentation is referred to as the pre-construction period andthis may, in some cases, exceed construction time. It is advisable to spend additional pre-construction time planning and programming the project rather than to make a premature start onconstruction.

An unrealistically short documentation period can result in an extended construction period,attracting extra costs for variations, time extensions and finance holding charges. It can be arguedthat a short documentation period results in savings due to the reduced period in which inflation canoccur.

The most effective financial situation for a commercial building would be sufficient documentationperiod to enable an optimum construction period. In certain cases, the advantages and savingsgiven by sufficient documentation and optimum construction period, are outweighed by commercialconsiderations. For example, a shopping centre which, regardless of cost, must open to takeadvantage of the Christmas buying season.

The relationship between project cost and project period is affected by numerous factors, includingcomplexity, material choice and values, critical activities and techniques. The relationship, whenbased on historical data, provides one of the most reliable methods of establishing project andconstruction periods. For example, if records show that high rise multi-storey office blocks duringconstruction period average monthly payments of $750,000, then the total estimated cost of aproposed building divided by the monthly amount will give an approximate construction period.

To establish the documentation period is considerably more difficult, as the design process is lesstangible and therefore less predictable than construction. Records concerning documentationperiods are also less precise and less plentiful than those concerning construction.

In the following guide, the documentation periods shown do not include delays caused by client orcommittee approvals, rejections and modifications or industrial strikes. The times stated assume aminimum of abortive time.

Construction ManagementConstruction Periods

AccelerationPage 11-563

10.1 Acceleration‘Acceleration’ is a term which is used when the project period—combined design and constructiontime—has been deliberately shortened by intentional and detailed planning throughout the project.

For acceleration to achieve its optimum reduction in time, it is essential that every member of theproject team be involved and fully committed to the concept. It will require very high standards ofmanagement, development of good working relationships, practical quality control procedures anda lot of mutual trust. Trust is an exceptionally important ingredient as work often has to proceed inanticipation of a definite decision.

There are many reasons why project periods need to be shortened. Shortened project periods cansometimes mean extra cost to the client, and before embarking on a ‘accelerated project’, the clientshould consider the possible additional costs versus the intended benefits of early completion/occupancy.

Research shows that much of the difference in efficient and inefficient projects can depend on theeffectiveness of the client.

The chart is a guide to the differences in construction times between accelerated, mediumperformance and traditionally managed contracts.

Note: times shown are for building structure and incorporated services only.

Allow extra time for tenancy fit-out and specialist services etc.

Construction ManagementCash Flow

Client’s View PointPage 11-564

11 Cash Flow11.1 Client’s View Point

Cash flow prediction is the forecasting of cash needed to be provided by the building owner at pre-determined dates in a building construction programme, for the purpose of making progresspayments to the builder for work executed.

An accurate estimate of cash flow for project payments is essential to the organisation that willprovide funds for the project. It will give advance notice of the funds needed and the timing of draw-downs.

Such an estimate is usually prepared before the contractor commences work and is obtained bypreparing a programme of construction activities for the project, costing these activities andobtaining anticipated expenditure on a month to month basis.

11.2 Contractor’s View PointContractors may operate from a relatively thin capital base and the demise of many firms can bedirectly related to poor or inadequate cash flow management.

Income and expenditure are combined to arrive at a net inflow or outflow of cash for each period. Atime related schedule of receipts and payments is prepared to give a cash flow statement.

A key factor in cash flow control for the contractor is to develop a system which will compare actualwith projected cashflow.

11.3 Example of CashflowAn example is given of a simplified cashflow prepared for the client, for a two-storey hostel costing$1,200,000 with a 10 month construction period.

The example assumes a fixed price lump sum contract with no provision for fluctuations andassumes that a bank guarantee will be operating with no retentions being held.

It should also be noted that a delay of 20 days or so elapses between the end of a “constructionmonth” and the actual payment for the work done in that period. This delay should be allowed for inany cash flow.

The example is for construction work only and excludes other periodic payments to which the clientmay be committed, e.g. Consultants fees, land costs, finance costs, etc. Refer to page 11-565.

11.5 S—CurveAs an alternative, analysis has consistently shown that cash flows follow the “lazy S” curve forconstruction purposes. This method is intended as a guide only and variations will apply accordingto the total cost of the work and whether or not lifts, sprinklers, air conditioning and other specialistservices are involved.

After reading off the theoretical amount expended against the time scale, additions or adjustmentsshould be made to accommodate unusual or extraordinary items such as: interest, professionalfees, pre-ordering, retentions.

From the graph it can be seen that 50% of the contract value is expended at 60% of the contractperiod.

Construction ManagementProperty Insurance

Indemnity valuePage 11-567

12 Property InsuranceA property may be insured in one of two ways—either for “indemnity value” or for “replacementvalue”.

12.1 Indemnity valueProvides the lesser cover—a building so insured provides cover for the value of the building as itstands, i.e., Likely depreciated, outdated and not conforming to design regulations. If total lossoccurs, the insurer would pay the actual value of the property destroyed. If the loss is a partial one,the insured may be required to contribute to the cost of repairs if remaining old construction isreplaced with new. The policy will only place the insured in the position he was in, prior to the loss—no better, no worse.

12.2 Replacement valueAn old building may have an indemnity value of $200,000 and a replacement value of $1,000,000.Replacement involves the construction of a building having the same functional use and of thesame usable area as the old building, but complying with modern technology, and conforming toregulations and by-laws which may have been adopted since the original building was constructed.

An existing building, of whatever age, adequately insured in this category, would absolve the ownerfrom undue expense in the event of building loss. An existing building constructed of, say, pipecolumns and metal cladding, if destroyed, could well be required to be replaced with a building ofreinforced concrete and block construction. If the insurance premiums covered this “extra cost”element, in other words the building was adequately insured, then the owner would be subjected tono expense if loss occurred.

At present in New Zealand the insurance industry recommends that properties of consequencehave reinstatement insurance. The average business or individual does not have the ready capitalto bridge the gap between indemnity value and full replacement cost.

Construction ManagementInsurance Valuations

Valuing Buildings for InsurancePage 11-568

13 Insurance Valuations13.1 Valuing Buildings for Insurance

The calculated value of a building comprises several elements:

• present rebuilding costs; • allowance for cost escalation/reduction during the period of insurance and/or construction; • professional fees; • removal of debris; • reinstatement costs—increased construction costs should the reinstatement period exceed

the period of insurance.

Some or all of these cost factors could be automatically included in the premium quoted by theinsurer, but it is extremely important to establish the extent of such inclusions.

Such value represents building costs only, and excludes factors such as loss of revenue in theperiod between building loss and reinstatement, cost of leasing alternative premises in the sameperiod, removal and upset expenses, etc.

The principal cost of any valuation, and one which affects all other on-costs, is the building cost. Itis advisable to obtain professional advice, through a quantity surveyor or the like, before theinsured commits himself to the payment of insurance premiums.

Above all, it is important that building owners protect their investments by periodic cost reviews oftheir buildings, in terms of inflation and the cost effect of the introduction of statutory and otherbuilding regulations, by-laws, etc.

Operating costs of buildings are those costs incurred by a Building Owner which are subsequentlylevied on the tenants. The extent of these costs should be agreed prior to signing a leaseagreement.

The following is a list of the main cost categories and their components. Each building will have itsown specific set of operating costs depending on its usage and each lease agreement within thebuilding may have all or some of the cost categories proportioned to it.

Accounting for Operating ExpensesPage 11-570

14.2 Accounting for Operating ExpensesBuilding owners also differ in their methods of accounting for operating expenses but guidelines areavailable from the Property Council of New Zealand Inc.. Further information is available in theirOperating Performance Handbook. For contact details, Refer to page 11-548.

In simple terms, operating costs for a building are recorded for each year and dividedproportionately between the tenants, according to the rentable floor area they occupy. Payment isnormally made on a monthly basis as an addition to the rent.

The methods of calculating operating costs can be applied to any type of building. Ground floortenants may be exempt from lift costs, window cleaning and common area cleaning. Variation incosts and categories occurs between regions and also between buildings. Each building should beassessed individually.

The breakdowns given are typical for new/near new buildings/complexes for Auckland andWellington. Marginally lower figures would apply for Christchurch and Dunedin.

15 Life Cycle Costing15.1 Summary

Life Cycle Costing (LCC) analysis is a method of evaluating all the relevant costs associated with aproject throughout its life.

In a building project it is normal practice to group these costs and benefits into four categories, viz:-

• Construction• Maintenance• Operating• Demolition or salvageThe basic concept of LCC is to identify the optimum distribution of resources between the abovecategories. The relationships between the categories are often illustrated in the following manner:

All past, present and future cash flows identified in an LCC analysis have to be converted topresent value dollars.

The normal method of dealing with these cash flows is to use a technique called discounted cashflow (DCF).

Discounted Cash Flow—DCFPage 11-572

15.2 Discounted Cash Flow—DCFDiscounted cash flow is derived from the compound interest formula. It is based on the assumptionthat if the right to receive money, or the obligation to pay out money, is deferred into the future, thenthe present value of this future sum of money is reduced. The amount of this reduction on theinterest selected is calculated at a compound rate.

Example: What is the single present worth or value of the obligation to pay a bill with a presentvalue of $2,000 in 10 years time. Assume 7% interest.

The answer can be calculated by using the reciprocal of the compound interest formula as follows:

Where P = a present sum of money, F = a future sum of money (equivalent to P at the end of Nperiods of time at an interest rate of i), i = interest rate, N = number of interest periods.

Thus, present worth = $1,016.70

Note: this example has been updated from the 20% originally used as the interest rate, and whichgave a present worth of $323.01. For those too young to remember paying mortgages and/orfunding projects in the 1980’s, 20% was applicable back then.

Spreadsheet solutions for the present worth formula are available for a range of values ofparameters i and N.

Spreadsheet solutions are also available for other discounting formulae such as Uniform PresentWorth, Present Worth of Periodic Payments, Annual Equivalent of Initial Payments and AnnualEquivalent of Periodic Payments.

15.3 Example of LCC AnalysisLCC analysis is primarily suited for the economic comparison of alternatives. LCC is used to selectthe design solution which will give the most appropriate in-use characteristics throughout the life ofthe building.

The following data refers to two air-conditioning systems X and Y, each capable of producingidentical environmental conditions, but having differing capital and running costs and lifeexpectancy.

Assume an interest rate of 12% and investment period of 30 years. Refer to page 11-573, andRefer to page 11-574.

15.4 Alternative calculation methodBy using uniform and aggregated present worth tables the calculations can be presented asfollows:

The foregoing example illustrates that although X is initially a lower capital investment than Y, Xhas a higher LCC than Y, due to increased running and maintenance costs, over a 30 yearinvestment period, at a discount rate of 12%.

15.5 LCC Analysis GenerallyPrior to making an investment decision it is imperative to test the robustness of an LCC analysis tochanges in the key parameters of the investment model. This can be done by selecting minimumand maximum value for interest rates, system lives, investment periods, etc.

As previously mentioned, LCC analysis is best used in a comparative situation to provide anapproximate answer to a precise question rather than a precise answer to an approximatequestion.

Construction ManagementProfessional Fees

LCC Analysis GenerallyPage 11-576

16 Professional FeesTraditionally fees for professional services have been governed by a minimum scale of charges laiddown by the various professional institutes and organisations. Members who charged less than theset fees were liable to be disciplined by their Institute.

The advent of the Commerce Act 1987 legislated that any scale of fees for professional serviceswould hence become non-mandatory, although some professionals pre-empted this decision andhad previously removed restrictions on scales of charges for their members. Fee scales are issuedonly as a recommended document and a guide to the scope of services carried out by eachprofession.

Removals of limitations on charges means that clients and consultants now openly negotiate theconditions of engagement and fees on any terms or basis they deem appropriate. Therecommended scales however are still generally considered to represent the best interests of bothparties.

Aside from the above changes a more competitive market has resulted from decline in constructionactivity. Other important factors to consider when determining professional fees are the buildingtype, i.e. its intended use, and the scope of the services required.

Further information and recommended fee documents are available from the professional bodies.

The following table is indicative of the likely range of fees for consultants engaged on a “full service”basis.

Note: additional to above fees: clerk of works, town planner, interior designer, project manager,programmer, surveyor, valuer.

Project management fees can be in the order of 2% to 5%, depending on the value of the contract.For smaller value contracts, project management fees tend to be a lump sum amount rather than apercentage.

Construction ManagementValue Management


17 Value Management17.1 Introduction

Value management is a disciplined procedure directed towards the achievement of requiredfunction for minimum cost without detriment to quality, reliability, performance or delivery. In theUnited States the procedure is known as value engineering.

The procedure is conducted through a workshop or series of workshops involving the client, thedesign team and other relevant stakeholders (where appropriate). The workshops are led by avalue management facilitator who takes the participants through a structured problem solvingagenda intended to find creative solutions to the client's requirements.

Experience has shown that the value management procedure is extremely useful as a means ofreviewing a design proposal. However, it has been found that the decisions that have the greatestimpact on cost are made at the outset of the project when strategic decisions regarding the purposeand required functions of the project are made. Current practice with value management istherefore to break it into a two stage process—strategic value management and design valuemanagement.

17.2 Strategic Value ManagementStrategic value management is used to review the strategic intent of the project. It is mostcommonly conducted during the pre brief stage. It is used to clarify the strategic intent of the projectand the functional requirements of the project. The use of a value management workshop enablesmatters such as the project priorities and economic restraints to be fully examined and alternativesolutions considered.

Whilst cost savings cannot be clearly defined at this stage—as the project itself is not clearlydefined—experience suggests that conducting value management at this stage can have a verysignificant impact on project cost.

17.3 Design Value ManagementDesign value management is used to review design proposals. During the workshop considerationis given to whether all the client's requirements are being fulfilled, whether additional value can beadded to the project and whether cost savings are possible without detriment to quality, reliability,performance or delivery.

Typically, cost savings achieved at a design value management workshop are in the order of 10%.

LegislationArbitration Act 1996


3 Arbitration Act 19963.1 Introduction

The Arbitration Act 1996 came into force on 1 July 1997. It replaced the Arbitration Act 1908 and itssubsequent Amendments of 1938. The new Arbitration Act is based on the Model Law of the UnitedNations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) approved by the UN in 1985 andadopted for international commercial arbitration in many countries including England, Wales,Northern Ireland, Canada, Australia and a number of American States.

The Act applies to all “domestic” arbitrations (those where all parties involved are resident in NewZealand) and international arbitrations (where at least one party has residence outside NewZealand but where arbitration is to take place in New Zealand).

3.2 Contents of the ActThe core sections of the Act itself

3.3 Purpose of the ActThe purpose of the Act is summarised in Section 5 to:

• encourage the use of arbitration• promote international consistency (by using the Model Law)• provide consistency between international and domestic arbitration in New Zealand• clarify the limits of review by the Courts• facilitate the enforcement of awards.

The Act itself is reasonably short and contains the general rules that apply to arbitration. The mainpart of the Act is contained in the First and Second Schedules that contain the procedural rules.The Third Schedule affects only international arbitrations and the Fourth and Fifth Schedules arepurely mechanical.

Schedule I (essentially the model law) applicable to all arbitrations and

Schedule II (additional rules, not drawn from the Model law), primarily for domestic arbitrations (although parties may agree to “contract out” of these) but parties to international arbitrations may agree to “contract into” these provisions.

Schedule III containing international Treaties and Conventions to which NZ is a signatory, which are generally only relevant to international arbitrations

Schedule IV contains a list of all other Acts that need to be altered to bring them in line with the new Arbitration Act

Schedule V lists all the Acts that are repealed.

Main Points—The Act itselfPage 12-588

3.4 Main Points—The Act itselfSection 2 An Arbitrator or panel of Arbitrators under the old Act are now called the

“Arbitral Tribunal” under the new Act.

Section 12 If there is no agreement between the parties an arbitration agreement isdeemed to provide that an Arbitral Tribunal may award any remedy or reliefthat could have been ordered by the High Court (i.e., a declaration order ororder for specific performance)

Section 13 An arbitrator is not liable for negligence for anything done or omitted in thecapacity of arbitrator.

Section 14 If there is no agreement between the parties confidentiality applies to theproceedings and awards.

Section 19 The Act applies to all arbitration agreements made before or after the 1 July1997, but does not apply to arbitration proceedings started before 1 July1997 (the previous Act would apply in those cases)

Schedule I Applies to all arbitrations

Article 7 An arbitration agreement can be oral or in writing

Article 10 The default number of Arbitrators is 3 (international) or 1 (every other case)

Article 10-15 Procedures for appointing an Arbitral Tribunal

Main Points—The Act itselfPage 12-589

Article 2 The Arbitral Tribunal under certain circumstances can consolidate anarbitration with other arbitration proceedings. This allows disputes with thesame or substantially the same subject matter between a number of differentparties to be joined into one multi-party arbitration. Consolidation under theold Act was only available through Court proceedings.

Article 3 This is probably one of the most important articles in the Second Schedule.This article provides the Arbitral Tribunal with the powers (amongst others)to:

• Adopt inquisitorial processes

• Order the provision of further and better particulars of claim or defence

• Draw on its own knowledge and experience

• Order security for costs

• Order the discovery and production of documents

Under the previous Act these powers were only available to the Courts butnow these powers have also been extended to Arbitral Tribunals.

Article 4 & 5 Appeals to the High Court can be made on matters of a preliminary point oflaw arising in the course of the arbitration or questions of law arising out ofan award.

Article 6 Procedures to resolve costs and expenses of arbitrations including a party’sright of appeal to the High Court to determine the legitimacy of the ArbitralTribunals costs and conditions under which the award can be released.

31 March 2005Transition provisions (sections 432-439)

• Building projects granted a building consent before 31 March 2005 will be completed under the provisions of the Building Act 1991, with one important exception. Code compliance certificates (CCCs) for these projects will be issued against the Building Code in place when the consent was issued, not against the Building Code at the time the code compliance certificate is applied for.

Building consents (sections 40-52)• If a person does urgent building work without a consent, he/she must apply for a certificate of

acceptance as soon as practicable.• If a compliance schedule, or alterations to a compliance schedule, will be required as part of

the project the consent application must include information about the specified systems in the building.

Key DatesPage 12-591

Certificates of Acceptance (sections 96-99)• Certificates of acceptance are new. They provide a means of retrospectively approving

unconsented building work, or work certified by a private certifier that has exited the market before a CCC could be issued. A certificate of acceptance states that, to the extent an inspection was able to be carried out, the work is compliant with the Building Code.

Upgrading existing buildings (sections 112-116)• The Act introduces more stringent requirements around Building Code compliance when

there is a change in the use of a building. Territorial authorities can allow alterations to an existing building without imposing the need to comply with all provisions of the Building Code, if the alterations will improve means of escape from fire or access for people with disabilities.

Code Compliance Certificates (sections 91-95)• Code compliance certificates (CCCs) will be issued against the original building consent. • In the first instance, the building consent authority that issued the building consent must issue

the CCC. However, another BCA can issue the CCC, if there is an agreement between it and the building owner.

• Applications for CCCs are compulsory, and must be considered within 20 working days. If an application is not received, a BCA has two years from the date of consent to decide whether to issue a CCC.

• It is an offence to permit public use of a building for which no CCC has been granted.

Compliance Schedules and Annual Building Warrant of Fitness (sections 100-111)• A compliance schedule must be issued at the same time as a CCC, if it is required. A

territorial authority may charge a fee for the issue of a compliance schedule, and amend it on its own initiative. Building owners have specific obligations to meet compliance schedule requirements. Building owners will need to supply a detailed building warrant of fitness to the territorial authority annually. Compliance schedules will be required for cable cars from 31 March 2008.

Producer statements• The producer statements no longer have any specified status in the legislation. They will still

be a mechanism to help establish compliance with the Building Code.

Dangerous, earthquake-prone and insanitary buildings (sections 121-132)• The definition of an earthquake-prone building is no longer limited to un-reinforced masonry.

Territorial authorities have power to prohibit use of buildings. When the territorial authority issues a warrant to fix insanitary conditions immediately, the warrant does not need to be confirmed by the district court if the building owner cooperates with the process.

Inspections (sections 222-232)• Authorised officers from territorial authorities must be able to produce written confirmation of

their identity when inspecting building work on private land.

Interim Code Compliance Certificates (Interim CCC’s) • There will be no interim CCC’s under the new legislation.

Project Information Memorandum (PIM) (sections 31-39)• The Act introduces minor changes to the PIM process. PIMs must be issued within 20

working days, but this can be extended if additional information is required. The PIM will inform the owner of requirements under the Fire Service Act 1975, as well as the Historic Places Act 1993. If any development contribution will be levied, or a resource consent required under the Resource Management Act 1991, information on these matters must be attached to the PIM.

• If a PIM is not issued within the prescribed period, the building consent application can continue.

2008


Key DatesPage 12-592

Notice to Fix (sections 163-168) • This was previously called a notice to rectify. Territorial authorities must issue a notice to fix if

there is a breach of the building control system. The Act specifies that a notice to fix must include a timeframe for the notice to be complied with, and the name of the person who must notify the territorial authority when the work has been done. The territorial authority must then inspect the work and decide if the notice has been complied with. Failure to comply with a notice to fix could result in a fine of up to $200,000, and a further fine of up to $20,000 for every day the offence continues.

Waivers and modifications (sections 67-74)• Territorial authorities will have power to waive or modify the requirements of the Building

Code, but are required to notify the chief executive of the Department of Building and Housing of the decision.

2005–2006

Certification of building products• Products can be certified as complying with the Building Code. Certificates will be issued by

third party certification bodies. These bodies will be accredited themselves, by an accreditation agency appointed by the Chief Executive of the Department of Building and Housing. Product certification will be introduced in 2005—2006.

Infringement notices (sections 370-374)• Provisions for infringement offences will be set out in regulations. These regulations will be

developed in 2005—2006.

30 November 2007Building consents

• All city and district councils must accept and process applications for building consents (except in relation to dams). Consents can also be issued by private companies who are registered building consent authorities.

Building Code changes• The Building Code will be reviewed by 30 November 2007 to examine how it could be more

user-friendly, and ensure that performance standards for buildings are clear and meet community expectations. These changes will take into account the Act's requirements for sustainable development and for buildings that help people stay healthy and comfortable.

Registration of building consent authorities• Councils and private building certifiers will need to be registered as building consent

authorities to issue building consents, Code compliance certificates, notices to fix, and certificates of acceptance. The Act allows for registration of councils, and private companies and individuals.

• To be registered the applicant will have to be assessed on whether they meet quality standards for their procedures, processes and people. This assessment will be carried out by an accreditation body appointed by the Chief Executive of the Department of Building and Housing. The other standards that a building consent authority needs to meet will be set out in regulations.

• Regional authorities will be responsible for consenting dams and will need to become building consent authorities.

• Councils, companies and individuals will need to be registered by 30 November 2007 to carry out functions as a building consent authority.

Restricted work is work that has the potential to cause significant harm to the building envelope orstructural damage if it is not done correctly.

To get a licence, practitioners will have to show a certain level of capability based on:

• practical experience and/or• evidence of qualifications.They will also have to pay a fee.

The goal of the licensing regime is to improve the quality of building work by:

• improving the skills of people who do or supervise building work• identifying and holding responsible those who do or supervise building work• helping consumers choose competent building practitioners• providing a complaints and discipline process for consumers dissatisfied with the standard of

building work.A public online register will list information about licensed people including contact information anddetails of any disciplinary breaches. If someone is licensed and does substandard work, acomplaint can be laid with the Building Practitioners Board. If the complaint is upheld, that personcould be censured, fined, ordered to do some extra training or struck off.

Licensing will not become compulsory for five years to allow time for those who may need to upskill.But people can choose to become licensed earlier if they wish, so long as they meet the requiredstandard for licensing. It is expected that the builders will be able to apply for some licenses byNovember 2007.

4.7 Building Code ReviewThe Building Act 2004 brings in the first major review of the New Zealand Building Code since1991. The review must take place by 30 November 2007.

The legislation (section 451) requires that:

The chief executive [of the Department of Building and Housing] must consider—

• the extent to which the building code complies with and meets the requirements of this Act; and

• the extent to which the building code is stated in sufficient detail to provide clear guidance on performance standards that buildings must meet to ensure compliance with the building code.

Effectively, this means the Building Code will be reviewed to make it better meet users' needs, andto ensure performance standards for buildings are clear and meet community expectations.

The changes will take into account the Act’s requirements for sustainable development, and forbuildings to help people stay healthy and comfortable.

When the review is finished the Building Code will have different requirements. It will also be easierto understand and to use.

Key facts• The Building Code review will take three years. It is scheduled for completion by 30

November 2007. • The review team will report to the Minister with a set of recommendations for changes to the

Building Code. • Industry, government and consumer representatives are being engaged in the process. • Implementation of any changes will be after 30 November 2007.The review will look at the Building Code and Compliance Documents (currently called ApprovedDocuments).

This is a comprehensive review—the first since 1991. It will begin with a period of research intoboth content and structure of the Building Code.

The entire content of the Building Code and Compliance Documents will be reviewed.

LegislationEmployment Relations


5 Employment Relations5.1 Introduction

The Employment Relations Act 2000 had effect from 2 October 2000, when it replaced theEmployment Contracts Act 1991. From 2 October 2000, the legal requirements for employmentrelationships have changed. Any new collective or individual employment agreement after this dateneeds to comply with the requirements of the Employment Relations Act. The ERA has beenamended three times, in 2001 and 2004.

5.2 ObjectivesThe goal of the Act is to build productive employment relations between employers, employees andunions.

Specifically, the Act:• promotes good employment relationships and mutual respect and confidence between

employers, employees and unions.• sets the environment for individual and collective employment relationships.• sets out requirements for the negotiation and content of collective and individual employment

agreements.• provides prompt and flexible options for resolving problems in employment relationships.

5.3 Existing AgreementsThe terms and conditions of all existing individual or collective employment contracts remained thesame on 2 October 2000. Any disputes or grievances in existence at that date continue to be dealtwith under the rules of the Employment Contracts Act 1991.

5.4 Good FaithThe principle of good faith is an essential part of the Act. Good faith requires the parties toemployment relationships, including unions, employers and employees, to deal with each other onthe basis of fair dealing and mutual trust and confidence. This includes, but is not limited to, notdirectly or indirectly misleading or deceiving each other.

In respect of collective bargaining, the core good faith duties include, but are not limited to, theobligations to:

• meet, consider and respond to any proposals made.• respect the role of the other party’s representative by not bargaining or communicating with

those for whom the representative acts, about employment conditions.• fairly represent the other party’s position in the negotiations to those on whose behalf the

other party is acting.• provide relevant information necessary for the purposes of negotiations.

5.5 Freedom of AssociationThe Bill provides for voluntary membership of unions, and not allowing any person to exert undueinfluence in employment arrangements, in order to influence the choice of whether to belong to aunion or not.

5.6 UnionsUnion membership is voluntary. Unions can represent both individuals and groups of employees.

To support their role, unions will be able to enter workplaces to:

• negotiate or enforce employment agreements.• deal with safety and health matters affecting members.• provide information about unions.• recruit new members.

2008

LegislationEmployment Relations

Independent ContractorsPage 12-597

In order to operate unions will be required to:

• gain legal recognition by applying for registration to the Registrar of Unions.• be incorporated societies with at least 2 members, and have rules dealing with how collective

agreements are ratified, how officers are elected, and the rights of members.

5.7 Independent ContractorsThe Act defines independent or self-employed contractors thus. If all or most of the followingfeatures are present in a work relationship, it is likely to be a contract for services involving a self-employed contractor:

• the intention of the parties to the contract is not to form an employment relationship, and this is reflected in the contract and/or the behaviour of the parties.

• the contract controls how and when the job is done.• payment is made in a lump sum at the end of a job, or in instalments as progress is made on

the job.• the contractor can choose who does the job and can hire other people without approval from

the other party.• the contractor pays any tax, ACC and insurance directly.• the contractor can make a profit or suffer a loss directly.• the contractor supplies equipment and materials.• the contractor is free to accept similar work from a number of sources at the same time.

5.8 Collective Agreement and BargainingOnly registered unions and employers will be able to negotiate and enter into CollectiveAgreements (CA’s). Every Collective Agreement must:

• state the term of the agreement.• describe the coverage of the agreement.• make provision for variations to the agreement during its term.• be in writing.• have a maximum term of 3 years.

All CA’s will have an implied term (which may be varied or excluded by agreement) that employeesbound by it will continue to be employed by the employer for the term of the agreement. This doesnot, however, limit or affect an employer’s right to dismiss an employee for just cause.

5.9 Fixed-Term AgreementsFixed-term agreements can be used, as long as the nature of the work is genuinely fixed-term, andthe term of the agreement is explained to the employee at the outset. Fixed-term agreementscannot be used in order to terminate employment without using normal dismissal procedures.

5.10 Strikes and LockoutsUnder the Act employees are able to lawfully strike in pursuit of single or multi-party collectiveagreements, but only after the expiry of an existing CA and where the parties have beennegotiating for more than 40 days. Employers have the right to lockout employees in the samecircumstances

During industrial action employers will not be able to:

• lawfully dismiss affected employees.• lock out employees not involved in the collective bargain.• require employees not involved in the collective bargaining to perform work which would

otherwise be performed by the affected employees• hire replacement employees to perform this work, unless there are safety and health reasons

to do so.

2008

LegislationEmployment RelationsAccess to Information

Page 12-598

Where strike action occurs, and normal work is unavailable as a result of the strike, an employermay suspend non-striking employees without pay.

5.11 Access to InformationClaims made when bargaining for a collective agreement must be able to be backed up byinformation. For example, if the union claims there is a risk of a labour shortage in the industry, theemployer can ask for evidence, or if an employer claims that profits are expected to be tight in thecoming year, the union can ask for evidence.

A request for evidence must be in writing, it has to identify specifically the information sought andhas to identify specifically the claim it relates to. A reasonable time frame must be given for theinformation to be supplied.

If either party believe the information needs to be kept confidential, parties can agree on anindependent reviewer to protect the information and make a decision on the point in question.

If the reviewer agrees the information should be kept confidential, the reviewer will then report onwhether it backs up the claim.

If the reviewer decides that some or all of the information does not need to be kept confidential, thereviewer will advise both parties and return the information to the party that provided it. That partyshould then, in good faith, provide the information to the other party.

The information can only be used for the bargaining process. It cannot be shown to anyone else.

LegislationHistoric Places Act 1993

Registration under the ActPage 12-599

6 Historic Places Act 19936.1 Registration under the Act

The Historic Places Act 1993 introduced the new register of historic places, historic areas, wahitapu and wahi tapu areas. Prior to the introduction of the new register the Trust had beenidentifying and classifying certain types of heritage places, but the register coordinates this processand widens the scope of what potentially has heritage significance. The new register includesplaces and structures such as buildings and archaeological sites, but now can also include trees,gardens, cemeteries, and many other types of heritage places. It also recognises places of specialsignificance to Maori.

The register is in four parts: historic places, historic areas, wahi tapu and wahi tapu areas.

6.2 CategoriesHistoric places are further divided into Category 1 and Category 2. Category 1 historic places areplaces of “special or outstanding historical or cultural heritage significance or value”. Category 2historic places are places of “historical or cultural heritage significance or value”.

Under the previous Act buildings were classified as “A, B, C and D”. Previous A and B buildings arenow category 1 historic places, and the previous C’s and D’s are now category 2 historic places.

6.3 Purpose of RegistrationUnder the Historic Places Act 1993 registration is primarily an advocacy tool—it is the Trust'smeans of identifying what is considered to be significant heritage items.

Registration carries no legal responsibility for the owner. It does not require any extra maintenanceof the registered property nor does registration prevent an owner doing what they may like with theproperty, including modifying, selling or even demolishing it.

However, needless to say, if the Trust has recognised the heritage value of a property throughregistration, it would prefer not to see these values compromised through inappropriatemodifications or through demolition. The Trust suggests that it views copies of plans for proposedconservation work prior to the work commencing, to ensure the proposed work will not compromisethe heritage values of the property.

The Trust’s register is also given to Territorial Authorities, who are required to take it into accountwhen issuing resource consents for works. They may require consultation with the Trust as part ofthis consent process.

6.4 Heritage OrdersThe Trust retains the legal right to place an heritage order under the Resource Management Act1991 on a registered property if it considers the situation justifies it. A heritage order has the effectof preventing any work at all happening on a property without the permission of the Trust. The Trustsees the heritage order process as being a last resort, and one that is undertaken very rarely.

LegislationResource Management Act

OverviewPage 12-600

7 Resource Management Act7.1 Overview

The Resource Management Act 1991 promotes the sustainable management of natural andphysical resources. “Sustainable management” is defined as meaning the managing of the use,development and protection of those resources in a way, or at a rate, which enables people andcommunities to provide for their social, economic and cultural well being and for their health andsafety. This is to be carried out while:

• sustaining the potential of resources for future generations;• safeguarding the life-supporting capacity of the environment; and• avoiding, remedying or mitigating adverse environmental effects.As local authorities' plans are reviewed and revised in line with the Act, they are concerned with theenvironmental effects of activities rather than with activities themselves.

7.2 ConsentsUnless activities are allowed as of right under the relevant district or regional plans provisions(subject to compliance with performance controls, such as noise levels) a resource consent will berequired before an activity can be commenced. There are five types of resource consent: land useconsent; subdivision consent; coastal permit; water permit; and discharge permit.

In the case of fully complying activities which are permitted as of right in the relevant district plan itis prudent to obtain a certificate of compliance from the council before the activity begins. Thisconfirms that the activity is permitted in the form proposed, and safeguards against changes beingmade to the plan which would alter the status of the activity.

A resource consent is not the same as a building consent under the Building Act, and a buildingconsent is not a substitute for a resource consent, or vice versa.

Land use and subdivision consents are granted by district councils; water and discharge permitsare granted by regional councils; coastal permits are granted by regional councils. Consent for“restricted coastal activities” must be obtained from the Minister of Conservation.

7.3 Activity TypesThe Act defines a number of types of activity. These are:

• permitted activities—allowed by a district plan without a resource consent, although conditions may be imposed;

• controlled activities—specified as such in a plan, and allowed only if a resource consent is obtained. The application may not need to be publicly notified, and the authority may impose conditions on the consent;

• discretionary activities—specified in a plan as requiring a resource consent, to be granted in accordance with criteria in the Act or in a plan;

• non-complying activities—contravene a plan but are not prohibited. Resource consent is required;

• prohibited activities—expressly prohibited in the plan and for which no resource consent shall be granted, i.e. Consent will not be possible, even if conditions are met.

7.4 FunctionsCentral government functions are split between the Minister of the Environment and the Minister ofConservation. The Minister of the Environment has a discretion to issue national policy statementson matters of national significance, and has power to “call in” any resource consent applicationwhich is of national significance and which is then dealt with by a board of inquiry appointed by theminister. The Minister of Conservation has the responsibility for coastal matters generally and inparticular the preparation of New Zealand coastal policy statement and approval of regional coastalplans.

2008


Time LimitsPage 12-601

The documents by which central government can set policy and participate in the resourcemanagement process are national policy statements, national environmental standards, and NewZealand coastal policy statements.

National policy statements deal with matters of national significance and are binding on the plans ofregional and territorial authorities. National environmental standards set out more detailed andtechnical requirements, particularly for standards of water, air and soil quality, and noise levels.

Regional councils are responsible for the regional effects of land use, soil conservation, activitieson the beds of lakes and rivers, other matters in respect of the quality and quantity of water,pollution management generally (and the management of hazardous substances and discharges ofcontaminants in particular), and the taking and use of geothermal energy.

Territorial authorities (i.e. District and City Councils) are obliged to prepare district plans and ruleswhich must be consistent with national and regional policy statements and regional plans.

The functions of territorial authorities extend only to the resources of that district or city, principallyland protection and controls of land use, subdivision, noise and the effects of activities on thesurface of rivers and lakes. Activities not referred to in the district plan are deemed to be non-complying activities.

Any person is entitled to make submission to a consent authority, and following that appeal to theplanning tribunal, in respect of a notified application for consent. Objections to an application on thesole basis of trade competition are not permitted.

7.5 Time LimitsA number of time limits are imposed at various stages of an application or the review of theprovisions of a district or regional plan. For example, where public notification of a resource consentapplication is required, this must occur within 10 working days of receipt of the application;submissions must be made no later than the 20th working day after notification; consent authoritiesmust notify decisions on consent applications within 15 working days after the conclusion ofhearings, and within 20 working days after receipt of applications for non-notified applications;appeals from consent authority decisions must be lodged with the planning tribunal and served onthe authority within 15 working days from receipt of the decision.

There are provisions in the Act for streamlining the procedures by way of pre-hearing meetingsconvened by consent authorities for mediation purposes, and for joint hearing where differentconsent authorities are involved.

However, deadlines can be extended by consent authorities if it is decided more information inrespect of an application is required.

7.6 Information To Be SuppliedThe Act imposes a high standard of supporting information to accompany applications, including adetailed environmental impact assessment. How much detail is required will depend on the natureof the activity for which consent is required. All possible effects of a proposed activity must be dealtwith in this assessment report, often requiring input from a multi-disciplinary team. If information isomitted or inadequate, it could result in an application being significantly delayed, and/or beingturned down.

Regional and territorial authorities are empowered to fix charges for a range of activities includingplan changes, processing consent applications, information gathering and monitoring, andproviding information to applicants, consent holders and the general public.

In some circumstances, local authorities may also impose charges in order to recover their actualand reasonable costs. These charges are in addition to resource contributions, bonds or otherfinancial contributions which may be required as conditions of resource consents.

While the aim of the legislation is to streamline the resource consent process, there are a numberof opportunities for increases in costs and delays, most of which are met by resource consent

applicants.

7.7 Prosecutions and RemediesDeclarations can be made by the planning tribunal, on application by any person, in respect ofinterpretation of the Act and whether or not a breach of the Act or rule in a plan has occurred.

Enforcement orders are obtainable by anyone from the tribunal, restraining activity in breach of theAct or requiring compliance. These can be granted on an urgent, interim basis.

Abatement notices are issued by enforcement officers, requiring the cessation of an activity whichis in breach of the Act, a plan or resource consent, or which is environmentally dangerous.

7.8 Offences and PenaltiesStrict liability is imposed in respect of offences for breach, or permitting a breach, of the duties andrestrictions created by the Act. This means that it is not necessary for the prosecution to prove anintention to commit the offence. Defences may be available where adequate remediation has beentaken and;

• the action complained of was necessary to save or protect life, health, property or the environment;

• the conduct of the defendant was reasonable in the circumstances; • the action or event was due to an unforeseeable event beyond the defendant’s control.If a prosecution for offences under the Act is successful, the maximum penalties are two yearsimprisonment or a fine of $200,000, plus $10,000 a day for continuing offences. Principals areliable for the acts of their agents, and there is no indemnity allowed for company directors.

LegislationConstruction Contracts Act


8 Construction Contracts Act8.1 Introduction

The Construction Contracts Act 2002 was passed into law on 19 November 2002, and effectivefrom 1 April 2003.

8.2 Background to the LegislationTypically, construction industry contracts provide for work to be paid after the work has beencarried out. Payments are usually made by instalments as the work progresses, but they are veryseldom made in advance. This pattern of payments often means that a developer, principal, orhead-contractor with cash-flow problems may deliberately delay payment for work done and, ineffect, use those further down the contractual chain to partly finance the construction project.

8.3 Objectives of the ActThe purpose of this Act is to reform the law relating to construction contracts, and in particular:

• to facilitate regular and timely payments between the parties to a construction contract.• to provide for the speedy resolution of disputes arising under a construction contract.• to provide remedies for the recovery of payments under a construction contract.

The Act achieves this by:

• invalidating “pay if paid” and “pay when paid” clauses of construction contracts;• setting out default provisions that require (except in the case of home owners) periodic

payments to be made within the construction industry, unless the parties to a construction contract have specifically agreed otherwise;

• providing that payment may not be withheld unless a notice has been given to the payee that states adequate reasons for withholding the money;

• establishing a quick and inexpensive adjudication process for resolving disputes, that allows a binding (but not final) determination to be made in relation to, among other things, whether any of the parties to a construction contract are liable to pay an amount under the contract;

• allowing a party to a construction contract to suspend work if that party has not been paid without good reason;

• enabling a party to a construction contract who is owed money for carrying out construction work under the contract, in certain limited circumstances, to register a charge against the construction site, if that site is owned by a person related to the party owing the money.

The Weathertight Homes Resolution Services Act 2002 passed into law on 19 November 2002,effective immediately. It was added to the Construction Contracts Bill as a supplementary orderpaper, and passed under urgency. This Act was repealed by the WHRS Act 2006

9.2 Objectives of the 2002 ActThe purpose of this Act is to provide owners of dwellinghouses that are leaky buildings with accessto speedy, flexible, and cost-effective procedures for assessment and resolution of claims relatingto those buildings. In general terms, this Act provides for the following matters.

Assessment and evaluation of claims in relation to leaky buildings. Sections 7 to 12 provide amechanism for owners of dwellinghouses who consider that their dwellinghouse is a leaky buildingto (i) submit their claim; and (ii) have it, and the nature of the particular problem, assessed andevaluated; and (iii) be provided with an assessor's report.

Mediation of claims. Sections 13 to 21 make provision for access to a special mediation servicethat is available to dwellinghouse owners with eligible claims. The claiming owner and any of theother parties against whom the claim is made may agree to refer the claim to mediation, withprovision for binding settlements by agreement.

Compulsory adjudication of claims. Sections 22 to 55, and the Schedule, set up a mechanismwhereby dwellinghouse owners can have their eligible claims referred to adjudicators whosepowers and procedures are flexible and whose determinations, subject to appeal, are binding andenforceable.

Miscellaneous provisions. Sections 56 to 64 set out various miscellaneous matters that underpinthe substantive provisions of this Act.

9.3 WHRS Act 2006Changes to the WHRS were announced in July 2006, and passed into law on 18 December 2006,with an effective date of 1 May 2007. This Act completely replaces the previous Act.

The measures, intended to benefit claimants and potential homebuyers, include:

• Requiring territorial authorities to place WHRS notices on affected property files, and to make that information available on Land Information Memorandum (LIM) reports

• Changing the voting thresholds to make it easier for a class action approach to be taken by owners of units within apartment blocks

• Setting statutory time limits on mediation • Enhancing the power and authority of adjudicators, including new offence provisions for

failure to comply with a witness summons and intentionally disrupting proceedings • Establishing a new specialist Weathertight Homes Tribunal administered by the Ministry of

Justice. Assessment and mediation remain with the Department of Building and Housing.

9.4 Weathertight Homes Resolution Services (Remedies) Amendment ActThis Act amends the Weathertight Homes Resolution Services Act 2006 to make clear theremedies that may be claimed under that Act and ordered by the Weathertight Homes Tribunal indetermining a claim adjudicated by it under that Act.

TaxRevenue Recognition

OverviewPage 13-606

1 Revenue Recognition1.1 Overview

The recognition of income and deductibility of expenditure on LTCC's—Long Term ConstructionContracts, i.e., those exceeding 12 months—has been an issue between Inland Revenue andtaxpayers for some time. There are currently no specific provisions on LTCC’s in the Income TaxAct.

Generally, Inland Revenue will not accept a completed contracts method unless payment is only oncompletion of the project.

The Valabh Committee was set up and considered inter alia this issue. It is interesting to note thatthe Government agrees generally with the Committee's proposals on LTCC's but has decided thatretentions should not be excluded from the percentage of completion computation unless thecontractor has reasonable grounds for considering that such retentions will not be received.

Other proposals, such as thresholds below which no income should be recognised from the project,are still under consideration.

1.2 RecommendationsThe Committee's recommendations to Government include:

New Provision. A new provision be introduced dealing specifically with the costing and revenuerecognition on LTCC's.

Project Costs. The cost of a construction project include direct costs that can be specifically tracedto projects (such as direct materials and labour) and indirect costs that are related to the generalcontract activity and can be objectively allocated to individual projects—such as insurance andsupervision costs.

The deductibility of project costs be governed by the capital or revenue classification of the projectand the timing of revenue recognition, and in particular:-

• the classification of projects between capital and revenue be in accordance with the Committee's recommendations.

• the deductibility of the costs of capital projects only be through the depreciation tax provisions; and

• the deductibility of revenue projects be based on the timing of revenue recognition.

Project Revenue. The revenue from a long-term construction project that is on revenue accountwhere there is a pre-determined sale, be determined in accordance with a percentage ofcompletion formulae, whereby the amount of project revenue that is recognised in an income yearis the total budgeted revenue to be received multiplied by the percentage completion of the project.This is consistent with Financial Reporting Standard FRS-14.

• In revenue projects for which the percentage of completion basis is used, any actual costs incurred in an income year be deductible as incurred;

• The revenue from all other long-term construction projects on revenue account be recognised when the project is completed and a sale is made;

• In revenue projects for which revenue is recognised on sale, expenditure incurred be deductible in the year in which the project revenue is recognised;

2008

TaxRevenue Recognition

SummaryPage 13-607

Completion Calculations. • The percentage of completion calculation would be based on the ratio that actual costs

incurred bears to total budgeted costs;• In applying the percentage of completion method, revenue and expenditure not be

recognised until the project is 20% completed;• In applying the percentage of completion method, retentions of project revenues by the

customer be excluded from revenues and be recognised only when receivable. This recommendation as noted above has been rejected by the Government.

Miscellaneous. Where a project is undertaken via a special purpose company with a view todisposal of the shares in the company, the profit on the shares is to be calculated on the samebasis as a percentage of completion method applying to the underlying project;

• A legislative definition of pre-determined sale should be introduced that focuses on the ability of the contractor (or shareholder) to secure the project revenue. This would be subject to the Commissioner's discretion to rule that there is no predetermined sale; and

• A two-way interest regime be introduced to calculate a compensating interest payment or receipt by the taxpayer by a comparison with the pattern of income derivation based on actual costs and revenues and the costs and revenues returned for tax purposes.

In addition to basing the percentage of completion formula on the ratio of actual costs to budgetedcosts, the Commissioner should be authorised to measure the percentage of completion byreference to specialist reports based on site inspection.

When calculating income from year to year over a long term construction contract, there is no rightof deduction for any expenditure or loss which might arise for warranty expenditure until thecontractor actually paid the claim or became liable to do so: HW Coyle Ltd v CIR (1980) 4 NZTC61,558; 4 TRNZ 1.

The Commissioner should be allowed to remit interest liabilities where the tax payer can show thatno additional tax would have been paid had returns of income been prepared on the basis of actualcost and revenue flows.

A threshold percentage of completion should be able to be varied by the Commissioner in specialcircumstances having regard to relevant facts—such as project size, variability of revenues andcosts and the like.

1.3 SummaryWhile the report has been around for several years, the Government has not yet given any clearindication of when the new provisions on LTCC's will be enacted.

However, in the meantime, it is suggested that taxpayers in the construction industry should takedue note of the recommendations as the Commissioner would inevitably seek to apply the generalprinciples put forward to any given contract situation.

Also it is not known at this stage whether the rules to be enacted will apply to existing projects oronly those which commence on or after the date of enactment.

DefinitionPage 13-608

2 Income Tax—Land Sales2.1 Definition

For the purposes of Income Tax the definition of land includes buildings on the land.

2.2 Profit TaxableSections CB5 to CB21 of the Income Tax Act 2004 sets out situations in which the profit on sale ofland is taxable. Briefly, they are as follows:

• Application to land that was acquired with the purpose or intention of sale or other disposition. • Application to land sold where the taxpayer, or an associated person, was in the business of

dealing in land, at the time that land was acquired.• Application where the taxpayer, or an associated person, was in the business of developing

or dividing land into lots, at the time that land was acquired.• Application where the taxpayer or an associated person was in the business of erecting

buildings at the time that land was acquired.• Application to land sold within ten years of acquisition, where 20 percent of the profits on sale

of that land are due to a change of zoning or similar factors.• Application where a scheme involving the development or division of land into lots was

commenced within ten years of the date that land was acquired (subject to the proviso that the section shall not apply where the development or division is for use by the taxpayer in deriving business or rental income or for residence).

• Application where a scheme involving significant expenditure on earthworks levelling, roading, kerbing or other similar land development or division work has been carried out by the taxpayer.

The legislation provides for the exemption of profits on sales of residential houses, businesses andfarms, provided certain conditions are met.

3 Goods and Services Tax3.1 Overview of GST

All references are to the Goods and Services Tax Act 1985 (The Act).

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a tax on domestic consumption. It is charged on businesstransactions and on imports. The rate of GST so charged is generally 12.5% but in somecircumstances it is zero percent. For most businesses GST is not a tax on their activities, the onlycost is the expense of administration of the tax.

The GST registration threshold is currently $40,000.

A building or construction contract will typically be made up of charges for labour, materials,overheads, subcontracts and a margin for profit. GST will be added to the total contract price at therate of 12.5%.

The contractor may claim a credit for GST paid on the purchase of materials, capital assets,overhead expenses and payments to subcontractors, (if registered).

The tender is made up of a series of prices or tenders from suppliers and subcontractors.Confusion can result if some prices or tenders to the builder contain GST and some do not.

It is therefore suggested that all prices or tenders to the builder be on a net basis (not includingGST) with the GST figure shown separately. The builder will prepare the tender by adding togetherthe tax-exclusive prices and tenders, adding on labour and margins and adding GST to this total, todetermine the total tender to the client.

How Does GST WorkPage 13-609

To avoid confusion it is suggested that:

• all tenders should be in writing and make clear whether the GST is included in the tender.• the majority of construction contracts and subcontractor/main contractor/client relationships

be carried out under the self billing system for progress claims and payments in terms of Section 24 (2) of the Act. The procedure requires the prior approval of the Commissioner.

3.2 How Does GST WorkA registered person will pay GST on the majority of goods and services supplied by them. Thisincludes all GST paid on electricity, capital equipment and other contractors, etc. This is referred toas input tax.

The registered person will charge GST on the goods and services supplied by them. This isreferred to as output tax.

At the end of the registered person's accounting period he will offset the input tax against the outputtax and will either pay the balance to Inland Revenue (if output exceeds input) or be due for arefund (if input exceeds output).

For example, a contractor buys from a supplier, goods costing $1,000 plus $125 GST. Thecontractor uses these goods in his business and makes supplies which he sells for $3,000 andcharges $375 GST.

At the end of the accounting period, the contractor declares $375 output tax less $125 input tax andthen pays the balance of $250 to Inland Revenue. On a payment basis the contractor has no netcash outflow due to GST.

3.3 Accounting—Periods There is a choice of three accounting periods that may be adopted by registered persons.

• One Monthly. A return must be filed every month. This basis is best suited to those persons who will regularly receive refunds. Compulsory if annual turnover exceeds $24 million.

• Two Monthly. A return must be filed every two months. Default period which Inland Revenue will automatically issue to all registered persons.

• Six Monthly. A return is due every six months. This option is only available to those persons with an annual turnover of less than $250,000.

In order to change an accounting period, a registered person must apply in writing to InlandRevenue.

3.4 Accounting—BasisThere are three options for accounting for GST:

Invoice Basis. This is the “standard” accounting basis to be adopted for GST purposes. Under thismethod output tax will be returned and input tax claimed in the period in which (the earlier of) theinvoice is issued or a payment relating to that supply is made or received. This is the “Time ofSupply” for the invoice basis. Many businesses adopt an accruals basis for accounting purposesand that will be consistent with the invoiced basis for GST. When registering for GST you willautomatically be given the invoice basis of accounting, unless you request otherwise.

Payments Basis. This method is only available to those persons with an annual turnover of lessthan $1,300,000 or to others who satisfy the Inland Revenue that due to the nature, volume andvalue of their supplies, and the nature of their accounting system, the payments basis isappropriate. Under this method output tax is returned and input tax claimed only when the paymentrelating to that supply is made or received. This is the “time of supply” for the payment basis. Inorder to be able to account for GST on a payments basis, written approval must be obtained fromInland Revenue.

From 10 October 2002, the invoice basis is required, if consideration is $225,000 or more, unlesssettlement is within one year.

2008


Tax InvoicesPage 13-610

Hybrid Basis. Under this method output tax is accounted for on an invoice basis while input tax isclaimed on a payments basis. If a registered person has a six monthly accounting period, or isaccounting for GST on a payment basis, and ceases to satisfy the condition for adopting suchmethods, then the registered person must inform Inland Revenue within 21 days.

3.5 Tax InvoicesSales to another registered person require that a Tax Invoice be issued to enable the purchaser toclaim a credit for GST paid. These invoices must be retained by the purchasers for 10 years.

The issuing of Tax Invoices is subject to the following rules: For supplies in excess of $1,000, a TaxInvoice must show:

• the words “Tax Invoice”• the name and GST registration number of the supplier• the name and address of the recipient• the date when the Tax Invoice is issued• a description of the supply• quantity or volume of the supply• either—the consideration of the supply excluding tax, the total tax charged, and the

consideration for the supply inclusive of tax• or—the total consideration for the supply and a statement to the effect that this includes a

charge for GST.Under this option the GST returned must be 1/9 of the total consideration. For supplies that do notexceed $1,000, a less detailed invoice can be issued and must show:

• the words “Tax Invoice”• the name and GST registration number of the supplier• the date when the tax invoice is issued• a description of the supply• the consideration for the supply and a statement that GST is included. For supplies that do not exceed $50, a Tax Invoice need not be issued and a Tax Invoice is notrequired in order to recover GST charged. The following details will be required to support thisclaim:

• the date of the supply• a brief description of the supply• the consideration for the supply

2008


GST Payments and RefundsPage 13-611

3.6 GST Payments and RefundsGST must be paid by the due date shown on the return. If GST is not paid by the due date, latepayment penalties may be charged as follows:

• 5 percent on the amount not paid by the due date.• 2 percent on total outstanding one month after the due date. (Compounding)Interest will also be payable and the Commissioner has no discretion to waiver such interest. IRDusually sends out refunds within 15 working days of receiving a correct return and may pay intereston refunds not issued until after 15 working days.

3.7 Progress ClaimsGST is added at the end after retentions have been deducted. The document becomes an invoicefor GST purposes. If the client is a registered person, or in the case of a subcontractor's claim to themain contractor, a tax invoice will need to be issued to enable the client or the main contractor toclaim an input tax credit.

The invoice, i.e. the progress claim, may be the tax invoice. This would mean, however that creditor debit notes would be required if the progress claim is subsequently altered. This is likely to causea problem for subcontractors and contractors.

Two alternatives exist to simplify the situation:

• the subcontractor may issue a tax invoice when the amount has been agreed; • OR the main contractor may issue a tax invoice on behalf of the subcontractor when the

amount is agreed. This is possible because there is a provision in the GST Act for the Tax Invoice to be issued by the recipient of the goods and services rather than the supplier, this being the self billing system which will apply to most construction contractors.

Self Billing. The following must be carried out before the self billing system is put in place.

• the Inland Revenue has granted prior approval to the agreement• the supplier and the recipient agree that the supplier shall not issue a Tax Invoice for the

same transaction• one copy of the tax invoice is provided to the supplier, and one is retained by the recipient.• the words “buyer created invoice—IRD approved” must appear on the invoice.Although the time of supply will remain at the point an invoice is issued, the Tax Invoice may beissued by the main contractor when the amount has been agreed and sent to the subcontractorwith the accompanying cheque, provided the above conditions are met. This procedure wouldmean that debit and credit notes would not be required.

Only one Tax Invoice may be issued in respect of the GST payable on each progress claim. Thismeans that each progress claim must show GST only on work completed since the last claim. Toachieve this, any deduction for previous payments should exclude GST already paid.

Under the self billing system the following will apply:

• The subcontractor's claim should not include GST and will not be recognised as a Tax Invoice by the main contractor.

• The main contractor's payment advice will be the subcontractor's Tax Invoice and should be retained by the subcontractor to support the amount of output tax payable.

• The subcontractor will be required to advise the main contractor of his GST registration number before the first Tax Invoice can be issued.

The same principles apply to main contractor/client relationships.

2008


Credit and Debit NotesPage 13-612

Using the “self billing” process, the time of supply will be when the amount of the claim isdetermined. The advantage of the self billing method can be shown simply, in the followingexample.

The subcontractor is now in the situation where he has a Tax Invoice showing $375.00 GST,however, he has received only $337.50, with the balance due at some future date.

The subcontractor, assuming he accounts for GST on an invoice basis, must either pay $375 toInland Revenue or must issue a credit note. Under the self billing process this problem does notarise.

The main contractor prepares the invoice as follows:

The GST to be returned by the subcontractor is $337.50 and there is no need for a credit note.

When the retention is due to be paid, the main contractor will issue a further Tax Invoice, detailingthe GST. Again the time of supply for a retention is the earlier of the following:

• when the claim is sent• payment is due• payment is received

3.8 Credit and Debit NotesIf a credit or debit note is required it must show:

• the name, address and registration number of the supplier• the name and address of the recipient• the date on which the credit note was issued• a brief explanation of the reason for the credit being given.• EITHER—the original consideration, the correction consideration, the difference between

those two amounts and the tax on the difference. OR—where the tax charged is the tax fraction of the consideration, the difference referred to above and a statement that the difference includes GST.

A subcontractor makes a standard progress claim:Subcontract works to date—excluding GST $12,000.00Less previous claim—excluding GST $9,000.00This progress claim $3,000.00Plus 12.5% GST $375.00Total Due $3,375.00

The main contractor receives the claim, deducts 10% for retentions, and pays the subcontractor as follows:

Total Claim $3,375.00Less retention of 10% $337.50Cheque to subcontractor $3,037.50

Subcontract work to date $12,000.00Less previous claim—excluding GST $9,000.00This progress claim $3,000.00Less retention—say 10% $300.00

$2,700.00Plus 12.5% GST $337.50Total due this claim $3,037.50

2008


Increased Costs and VariationsPage 13-613

3.9 Increased Costs and VariationsAny increased costs or variation claims can be included in a progress claim as the work iscompleted, and the GST will be calculated on these in the same manner as for any other claim.

The contractor should ensure that the charge will be accepted by the recipient as for a contractoron an invoice basis. GST is accountable when the invoice is issued and must be paid to InlandRevenue even if the account is under dispute if the self billing system is not used.

3.10 GroupingSpecial provision is made to allow two or more companies or other entities to form a group for GSTpurposes and to return GST as if the group were one registered person. To enable this, eachcompany must be a registered person, and there must be a minimum common ownership in thecompanies of not less than 66% at the end of the income year. All members of the group arerequired to have the same return period and accounting basis, and one member must benominated as the “representative member”.

Effects of Grouping. The representative member of the group is deemed to conduct the activitiesof all other group members

• The representative member is required to file the GST return• Taxable supplies between group members may be disregarded to the extent that the

recipient group member would have been able to deduct input tax in respect of that supply if they had not been a group member.

Each group member remains jointly and severally liable for any GST payable and each member isobliged to provide tax invoices and keep adequate records.

• For example, a contractor may own a construction company and a supply outlet. If the contractor elects to form these companies into a group for GST purposes then taxable supplies between each group member need not be charged with GST if the recipient company would normally have claimed input tax on that supply.

3.11 Second Hand GoodsWhen a registered person purchases, and makes payment for, second-hand goods other than as ataxable supply, typically from unregistered persons, the registered person is entitled to a notionalinput tax credit being the tax fraction of the consideration. (i.e. 1/9).

• For example, a contractor purchases some used machinery from an unregistered person for $2,000. The contractor may then claim a notional input tax credit of 1/9 of the purchase price being $222.22. No deduction for input tax is available until the goods have been paid for.

Record keeping requirements to facilitate a deduction when the consideration exceeds $50 are asfollows:

• name and address of the supplier• the date of purchase• a description of the goods and services• the amount paidThere is no distinction between the supply by a registered person of new goods or second-handgoods. Both are chargeable with GST. It has generally been accepted that land may be regardedas second-hand goods for GST purposes, however, judicial decisions have expressed some doubton this.

Fringe Benefits—GST ImplicationsPage 13-614

3.12 Fringe Benefits—GST ImplicationsIf employees are considered to be in receipt of fringe benefits for Fringe Benefit Tax purposes,whether these are the provision of a motor vehicle or some other benefit, the provision of thebenefit subject to FBT is additionally regarded as a taxable supply for a consideration (inclusive ofGST) equal to the value of the benefit. In simple terms, you may have to pay GST on FBT.

Where the fringe benefit consists of a supply that would be exempt or zero-rated, no output taxliability arises. For example, low interest loans, or international air travel, may be ignored.

Significant changes to the FBT rules relating to motor vehicles have been introduced, effective 1April 2006. This in turn affects the GST component. For FBT, Refer to page 13-617.

An example of Fringe Benefit subject to GST:

3.13 Overseas Services For Non-ResidentsContracts that are performed outside New Zealand are subject to GST at the rate of zero percent.This means that all input tax paid on supplies relating to that contract may be claimed from InlandRevenue, but no GST needs to be charged to the recipient of that supply. GST is payable onservices, performed on behalf of a non-resident, which relate to real property in New Zealand, e.g.a building.

The issue of whether GST is payable for services supplied directly in connection with land outsideNew Zealand, has been the subject of litigation, and the implications are that care should beexercised in this regard.

(Refer Malololailai Holidays New Zealand Limited v C of IR (1997) 18NZTC123137)

3.14 Zero Rated SuppliesGST is charged at 12.5 percent on most supplies of goods and services in New Zealand. However,certain types of taxable supplies are taxed at a rate of zero percent (0%).

Zero rating should not be confused with exemption. Registered persons who make zero-ratedsupplies charge GST on these supplies at the rate of zero percent, but they may still claim a creditfor any GST paid on the purchases relating to those supplies. In the case of exempt supplies, noinput tax deduction can be claimed.

Zero rating applies to:

• sale of “going concerns” e.g. tenanted building• exported goods• goods not in New Zealand at the time of supply• certain “exported” services.The I.R.D. has accepted that the sale of a commercial property that is 50% tenanted qualifies forzero rating as a ‘sale as a going concern’. There is no such legislative provision and occupancyless than 50% may qualify in certain circumstances. The vendor and purchaser must agree inwriting that the sale of a tenanted building is a ‘sale as a going concern’.

Private Use/Change of UsePage 13-615

3.15 Private Use/Change of UseWhere goods and services purportedly acquired for business purposes (and claimed as such forinput tax purposes) are diverted for a business proprietor’s benefit or for the benefit of an“associated person”, then an output tax liability arises and the goods and services are valued foroutput tax purposes, at the lesser of the GST inclusive cost of the goods, or their open marketvalue.

Also there are GST considerations where a residential property developer transfers property to arental activity, either temporarily or permanently.

3.16 Stamp DutyThe Stamp Duty Abolition Act 1999 abolished stamp duty on the sale and lease of commercial landand buildings, including farms, thereby eliminating all stamp duty.

Introduced in 1867, stamp duty originally applied to most residential and commercial property andto financial instruments. This scope was significantly narrowed in 1988, leaving two main types ofstamp duty: conveyance duty and lease duty. Conveyance duty applied to sales of commercial landand buildings and shares in a flat or office-owning company. Lease duty applied to leases ofcommercial land and buildings.

The abolition of conveyance duty and lease duty completes the progressive phasing out overrecent years of stamp duties and similar duties. Conveyance and lease duty on residential propertywere repealed in 1988, stamp duty on the creation of forestry rights in 1994, and credit cardtransaction duty in 1998.

Conveyance duty was charged as follows:

• 1% on the first $50,000 of the sale price• then at 1.5% on the amount between $50,000 and $100,000• and at 2% plus $1,250 on the amount over $100,000Lease duty was generally charged at 40 cents per $100 of the maximum annual rental payableunder a lease, and $1 per $100 of any premium payable under the lease.

The repeal of the various stamp duty provisions applies to:

• instruments executed after 20 May 1999• instruments executed between 20 May 1991 and 20 May 1999 if the related transactions

were not completed or, in the case of leases were not carried into effect, on or before 20 May 1999.

TaxAnnual Warrants of FitnessTax Aspects of Compliance

Page 13-616

4 Annual Warrants of Fitness4.1 Tax Aspects of Compliance

The Building Act places responsibility with the owner of a building to ensure the building is safe,sanitary and provides means of fire escape. See “Building Act 2004” on page 12-590.

Any building (new or existing, including Multi-Unit Residential) which contains any of the featureslisted will require an annual warrant of fitness.

• Lifts, escalators or travelators• Automatic Sprinkler System• Automatic Fire Doors• Riser Mains for Fire Services• Mechanical Ventilation or Air Conditioning• Systems serving all or a major part of the building• Back Flow Preventers• Emergency Lighting Systems• Building Maintenance Units• Signs Required for any of these systems• Escape route pressurisation systemsThe Building Act requires the owner of a building to obtain a compliance schedule which must beavailable for inspection. The building owner must appoint an independent qualified person toundertake the inspection, maintenance and procedures in relation to a compliance schedule.

Expenditure incurred in complying with the Building Act would include:

• Expenses incurred in obtaining a warrant of fitness, in particular costs of engaging an independent qualified person.

• Repairs and maintenance• Expenditure on improvementsThe appropriate tax treatment of such expenditure will vary from case to case, however, somegeneral rules are outlined below.

4.2 Warrant of Fitness ExpensesThese expenses which do not add to the capital value of the asset would be deductible in the yearincurred. The expenses are recurring on an annual basis and bring about no enduring benefit.Therefore, they should not properly be regarded as being on capital account.

4.3 Repairs and Maintenance Expenditure on repairs and maintenance is deductible from the 1993-94 income year onwardsunder the ordinary provisions of the Act. Expenditure will therefore have to satisfy the generaldeductibility test which is subject of the denial of a deduction for capital expenditure.

Alterations which do not increase the value of the asset must be capitalised and depreciated.

Ordinary repairs and maintenance expenses not increasing the capital value of an asset aredeductible in the year incurred.

TaxOther Taxes

Expenditure on ImprovementsPage 13-617

4.4 Expenditure on ImprovementsTax depreciation is allowed in respect of “depreciable property”.

Generally speaking, depreciable property is all the property which the Commissioner haspreviously allowed to be depreciated under the Act. It is property which declines in value, but doesnot include land or property for which a deduction is mandatory and must be claimed in full.

Taxpayers have two basic choices when dealing with the depreciation of capital expenditure onimprovements to depreciable property. The expenditure can be either added to the cost of thedepreciable property and depreciated as part of that property, or it can be separately capitalisedand treated as a separate asset.

Expenditure on improvements can only be depreciated from the month in which the improvementswere first used or became available to be used.

Depreciating improvements as a separate asset will be useful if the rate applying to theimprovement is different from that applying to the asset.

The rates of depreciation available to an asset owner depend on both the type of asset and the timeat which it was bought. The date on which a binding contract to buy the asset was entered into mayalso be relevant.

Taxpayers should consider carefully the nature of the specific expenditure incurred in complyingwith the Building Act to ensure that the proper tax treatment is adopted.

5 Other Taxes5.1 PAYE Tax

Pay As You Earn (PAYE) tax was introduced in 1957 and provides a system in terms of whichthose making certain types of payments must deduct tax from those payments. Salary and wagesare the common examples of payments which must have PAYE deducted.

Deductions must also be made from payments which are declared to be withholding payments.Various rates apply depending on the type of payment being made. For labour only carpenters,plumbers etc, and others engaged by the building industry, the rate is set at 20%.

5.2 Fringe Benefit TaxFBT is payable by employers on specified benefits (e.g. motor vehicles and low interest loans)provided to employees (including major shareholders), and payable quarterly for periods ending 30June, 30 September, 31 December and 31 March.

The rate is 49% of the taxable value of each benefit provided. However, effective from the quartercommencing 1 April 2000, the FBT rate increased to 64% for employees earning salary and wagesexceeding $60,000.

There is a ‘de minimis’ exemption for “unclassified benefits” of $75 per employee in the quarter orlimited to $450 to all employees in the quarter. ‘de minimis’ means small or trifling.

Significant changes to the FBT rules relating to motor vehicles were introduced effective 1 April2006. For example, annual FBT on a vehicle costing $26,000 would be $2,548, or $3,328 wherethe 64% FBT rate applies. For GST implications and a fuller example, Refer to page 13-614.

• $26,000 x 20% = $5,200 x 49% = $2,548, or $5,200 x 64% = $3,328

5.3 Accident CompensationThere are varying levies payable by employers, employees and self-employed people. Employerspay levies and residual claim levies, depending on industry type. Rates and thresholds are issuedby Regulation.

TaxOther Taxes

Resident Withholding Tax (RWT)Page 13-618

5.4 Resident Withholding Tax (RWT)This tax took effect from 1st October 1989. It imposes a liability on those people making interestpayments to deduct a withholding tax at source before the interest is remitted. Payments made tofinancial institutions are exempt from the requirements. The tax also extends to cash dividends paidand to taxable bonus issues. The withholding tax rates are 19.5% for interest (can elect for higherrate) and 33% for dividends.

5.5 Non-Resident Withholding Tax (NRWT)Payments of Non-Resident Withholding Income (NRWI) are subject to the deduction of NRWT priorto remission overseas. NRWI includes interest, dividends and royalties. Payments to non-residentContractors are subject to a withholding payment regime also.

As regards interest, borrowers may apply to the Commissioner of Inland Revenue to become anApproved Issuer. Approved Issuers will be able to pay tax-free interest to unrelated non-residentlenders in relation to registered securities. A tax deductible charge will be levied on ApprovedIssuers equivalent to 2% of the exempt interest actually paid to non-residents.

This will enable resident borrowers, who are currently bearing most of the burden of the NRWT dueto “gross-up” clauses, to reduce their interest costs.

5.6 Dividend ImputationIntroduced effective 1st April 1988 and effectively eliminates double taxation of income derived oncorporate income. Shareholders receive a credit for corporate income tax paid when companyincome is distributed as a dividend, e.g.:

* assumes total income is less than or equal to $60,000, otherwise rate of 39% applies.

5.7 Capital Gains TaxThere is presently no formal capital gains tax regime in New Zealand, but See “Definition” onpage 13-608.

5.8 Late Payment Penalties/InterestTax which is paid late is subject to a late payment penalty of 5%. A further penalty of 2% per monthwill be charged on the outstanding amount. Use of money interest is also payable on outstandingamounts.

TaxTax Depreciation—Buildings

Tax RulesPage 13-619

6 Tax Depreciation—Buildings6.1 Tax Rules

The tax depreciation rules are contained in Section EE of the Income Tax Act 2004.

For depreciation purposes, a building comprises the outer walls including linings, outer doors, shopfronts and windows, interior bearer walls, inner fixtures of brick and concrete, foundations, roofceilings, floors, cellar, chimneys, sewerage disposal systems, stairways, plumbing, water andpower supplies.

Special tax depreciation rules applying to buildings.

• Buildings cannot be pooled.• Depreciation on buildings can be claimed in the year of sale.• A loss on disposal of a building cannot be claimed as a deduction.• Buildings do not qualify for increased rates, which are either the historic rate plus 25% of that

rate or the economic rate plus 20% of that rate. New assets purchased after the start of the 1995/1996 year may qualify for the 20% loading, e.g., moveable furniture but not fixed fittings.

• A special deduction for assets which are no longer used is not available for buildings.• When a personal or non-business asset is introduced into a business, generally the market

value at the time is used to calculate depreciation. This rule does not apply to buildings.• Depreciation on buildings acquired before the 1993-1994 income year is calculated using the

straight line (SL) method. From the 1993-1994 income year onwards you can decide each year whether to use the straight line or diminishing value (DV) method.

• Depreciation on buildings is calculated on either the original cost or the adjusted tax value, depending on which depreciation method you use.

• The first time you use the diminishing value method, calculate the adjusted tax value of the building. Depreciation on the building is calculated on this amount. To work out the adjusted tax value, deduct the amount of depreciation which has been claimed since purchase from the original cost (excluding land).

• For rates for buildings and plant (including building fit-out, contractors and builders equipment) acquired before 1 April 1993, Refer to page 13-621.

• For those acquired after 31 March 1993, Refer to page 13-640.• A tax payer may elect not to depreciate property. This may be useful to avoid depreciation

recovery on residential lettings.• Note the IRD’s revised views on residential rental chattels. Refer to page 13-641• The low value asset threshold which allows taxpayers to write off assets immediately is $500.

Land and Buildings. Depreciation cannot be claimed on land. When land and building arepurchased and the price does not specify the cost of the building, the Government Valuation (at thetime of purchase) may be used to calculate the cost of the buildings:

Value of improvements (buildings) x purchase priceCapital value (land & buildings)

Sale of Buildings. When a building is sold for more than its adjusted tax value, the depreciationrecovered is assessable income. The amount of depreciation recovered is the smaller of: theoriginal cost price of the building, minus the adjusted tax value; or the sale price, minus theadjusted tax value.

This ensures that any capital profit made on the sale of a building is not included as assessableincome. Losses made on the sale or disposal of buildings are not deductible.

Depreciation Rates from 1 April 2005Page 13-620

Depreciable Land Improvements. Depreciable Land Improvements and payments for the right touse land, e.g. leasehold interest, are depreciable property. (17th Schedule of The Tax Act)

Depreciable Land Improvements include: Airport runways; Reservoirs; Bores and wells; Retainingwalls; Bridges; Roads; Dams; Chimneys; Spillways; Culverts; Swimming pools; Tanks; Fences;Tunnels; Hardstanding; Wharves.

6.2 Depreciation Rates from 1 April 2005New depreciation rules came into effect in 2005. Assets (other than buildings) acquired on or after1 April 2005 and buildings acquired on or after 19 May 2005 can be depreciated at the new rates.

The current depreciation rate tables only apply to assets acquired before 1 April 2005 and buildingsacquired before 19 May 2005. These are now called the "old rates" (not to be confused with thereally old rates, pre–1993).

However, the new rates applicable to construction and property are contained in the tables on thefollowing pages. See “Tax Depreciation Schedules” on page 13-621.

For other rates not included in our tables, see the Depreciation Rate Finder table below. Look upthe “old rate” for the item in question, in the existing IRD tables, then consult the Rate Finder belowto find the corresponding %. Look across to the “New Rates” columns for the updated rate.

IRD Stand: Residential Rental ChattelsPage 13-641

6.4 IRD Stand: Residential Rental Chattels Inland Revenue advises that it considers it is unacceptable for residential rental property owners tobreak up their properties into smaller components in order to get higher depreciation rates for taxpurposes. The items that Inland Revenue does not believe to be separate assets are internal walls,doors, electrical wiring and plumbing and so on, as well as furniture and fittings that arepermanently attached and are regarded as being part of the building. These include items such askitchen cupboards, bathroom vanities and built-in wardrobes.

An Interpretation Statement on this ruling is being prepared for public consultation.

Property owners are still able to depreciate chattels such as carpets, drapes, light fittings,whiteware and so on, as separate assets. There is also provision to depreciate separately itemssuch as water heaters, clothes lines and other fittings that are not part of the building.

Weights, Measures and ChartsRetention Formula

Acceptable Solutions, Timber DurabilityPage 14-651

7 Retention FormulaA spreadsheet formula can be used to calculate retention values. The formulae shown in cells A2and A3 of the simulated spreadsheet below use the ‘IF’ worksheet function and are nested to 3levels. The version in A2 has hard-typed values for the percentages and maximum values,whereas the version in A3 has cell references (B1, C2, etc.), which can be edited for differentConditions of Contract. Note: answer is negative.

• A1 = the cell reference for the progress claim valuation from which retentions are to be deducted.

• B1 = 10% retention (on first $200,000)• B2 = 5% retention (on the next $800,000, i.e., up to $1,000,000)• B3 = 1.75% retention on the balance, to a maximum of $200,000 retained, or a progress

claim valuation of $9,000,000. • Formulae shown in A2 or A3 (copy exactly) will return the retention value.• Columns C and D contain the fixed values applying when SCC1 is used.
