This Standard sets out the method for determining the residue of cement on the 45 µm sieve, by wet sieving.

This Standard specifies materials that are suitable for the manufacture of panels for use in the testing of paints, lacquers, varnishes and related coating materials.

Sets out the method for determining the Emerson class number of a soil. Soils are divided into seven classes on the basis of their coherence in water, with one further class being distinguished by the presence of calcium-rich minerals.

Sets out a method for the determination of the relationship between the moisture content and the dry density of a soil, when compacted, using standard compactive effort (596 kJ/m3).

This Standard sets out a method for determining the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of a soil when compacted and tested in the laboratory. The CBR value is measured on the fraction of material passing the 19mm sieve. This Standard is not applicable to materials with more than 20% retained on the 19mm sieve.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the resistance of a smoke/heat release vent leakage during rain.

Sets out a procedure for the measurement of electrical resistivity of fine granular materials with a maximum particle size of 2.36 mm.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the ability of a smoke/heat release vent to operate when covered with snow.

This Standard sets out the method of determining the pliability of damp-proof courses with fabric or felt base.

This Standard sets out a method for curing concrete shrinkage specimens in the laboratory, and for determining the length changes of these specimens due to drying in air. It provides for testing of specimens prepared in the laboratory or in the field in accordance with AS1012.8.4, in which the nominal size of aggregate in the concrete, in accordance with AS 2758.1, does not exceed 40mm.
