This Standard sets out the method for determining moisture content, dry density and ambient density of masonry units, segmental pavers and flags.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the tensile strength (indirect splitting strength) of masonry units and segmental pavers of most types, sizes and materials. It describes the preparation of the specimens, the conditioning required before testing, the apparatus, the method of test, the method of calculation and the contents of the test report.

This Standard sets out the methods for determining the coefficients of expansion of masonry units, segmental pavers and flags. The coefficients of expansion estimated by these tests represent the total 15 year expansion of either kiln-fresh or non-kiln-fresh fired clay units. Provision is also included for the estimation of past expansion and of residual expansion to 15 years, of units of any age.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the normal consistency of cement.

This Standard lists the Standards for methods of testing Portland and blended cements.

AS NZS 5131 2016 sets out minimum requirements for the construction of structural steelwork involving fabrication, preparation of steel surfaces for corrosion protection, corrosion protection comprising painting and galvanizing, erection and modification of steelwork. Steel fabrication standard.

Provides the minimum requirements for pavers and flags for use in pavements. Proposed as an Australian/New Zealand Standard.

The objective of the Standard is to provide materials specifications for steel bars and welded mesh used to reinforce concrete structures that have been designed in accordance with standards such as AS 3600, Concrete structures, or NZS 3101.1, Concrete structures standard, Part 1. This Standard has also been referenced by other design standards.

Specifies requirements for wrought aluminium and aluminium alloy drawn or cold-finished wire, rod, bar and strip products for general engineering purposes. Chemical composition, mechanical properties and dimensional tolerances are specified. Appendices provide purchasing guidelines, fabrication characteristics and application data, and related composition specifications.

Specifies requirements for wrought aluminium and aluminium alloy drawn tube for general engineering purposes. Chemical composition and tensile properties are specified, and allowable tolerances on dimensions included. Included are two appendices, one provides guidelines on information to be supplied by the purchaser at the time of enquiry or order, the other lists fabrication characteristics and application data.
