User:Sacrificial anode/BUILD (Website)

BUILD (www.build.com.au) is a consumer-focused website designed to provide independent, industry-reviewed information and resources to Australians who are building or renovating their homes. The site is published by Connection Online, a division of Connection Magazines, and has been published in its current form since August 2010.

Prior to its current use, the domain was used by Connection Magazines to host a range of published services directed towards the Australian building and construction trades.

Structure and articles
The BUILD site features different sub-sites for each aspect of the home building process, including in-depth information on things like hot water systems, windows and glass, roofs, walls, floors and climate control (HVAC) systems.

Each of these sub-sites contains further information about:


 * the different materials and technologies that are available
 * the sorts of things that are likely to affect performance
 * considerations relating to energy efficiency
 * rules and regulations
 * maintenance advice

Likewise, each sub-site also features an 'inspiration gallery' which contains images supplied by manufacturers and industry associations. BUILD also publishes news on new products, changes to building regulations and other topical events and occurrences.

Industry review and expert feedback
The information on BUILD is created in collaboration with manufacturers, industry bodies and renowned subject matter experts to ensure its timeliness, accuracy and relevance for Australian audiences.

BUILD also hosts an 'Ask an expert' feature, which allows readers to submit a question related to building or renovation. Where appropriate, these questions are responded to by a representative of either a relevant manufacturer or an industry body, and published on the BUILD site along with the response.
