Do they still need continuous rod tie down floor to truss ,if so any idea about spacing
What's the wind rating N1, N2 etc on the site
It should be on your DA form?

The tie down should be continuous from the footings to the truss
you also require shear wall certified design
OT the engineer often only gets asked and paid to design one aspect of the structure, eg Footings,
If they don't get paid they don't look at the rest of the structure, ie the walls and roof trusses.
If they are manufactured they should come with a structural certificate certified by the manufacturers engineers
It's Up the the Building surveyor and council to make sure all documents are complete and correct
How do you know if its been built correctly if you don't have all the documentation, non compliance can also potentially void any possible future insurance claims

Seems reasonable for a base level build. Just depends on what you consider average.
