In-ground decay hazard zones

Geographical areas in Queensland allocated 1 of 4 levels of decay potential for timbers used in in-ground applications. The areas are rationalised to Local Government Area boundaries.

Below are a list of values users can choose for this field group.

  • Ig:A - In-ground decay hazard zone A; least potential for decay.
  • Ig:B - In-ground decay hazard zone B; lower potential than zone Ig:C and greater potential than zone Ig:A for in-ground decay.
  • Ig:C - In-ground decay hazard zone C; lower potential than zone Ig:D and greater potential than zone Ig:B for in-ground decay.
  • Ig:D - In-ground decay hazard zone D; greatest potential for decay.
