Sets out requirements for measuring the Vickers hardness of metals and for the installation, calibration and maintenance of the testing machine. It also specifies requirements for the calibration of standard hardness blocks and indenters. In this edition, the testing and calibration requirements have been combined into one Standard.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the resistance of roof tiles to salt attack. It also includes information helpful for judging the resistance to salt attack, particularly when there are inadequate records of the behaviour of the product when exposed to actual weathering conditions.

Specifies methods by which a test piece of metal is strained in uni-axial tension at room temperature in order to determine one or more of its tensile properties.

Specifies requirements for the measurement of the Rockwell hardness of metals and for the installation, calibration and maintenance of the testing machine. It also specifies requirements for the calibration of standard hardness blocks and diamond cone and steel ball indenters. In this edition the testing and calibration requirements have been combined into the one Standard.

Sets out test procedures for a method of test for determining the smoke leakage through doors and shutters. Follows the basic principles and provisions contained in ISO 5925-1.

Specifies requirements for the safe use of tower cranes, covering planning, selection, siting, personnel, inspection, testing, erection, dismantling, personnel safety, operation, maintenance and repair. Appendices provide typical inspection and testing certificates as well as inspection testing check sheets.

Adopts ISO 2394:2015 is to provide a risk and reliability-informed foundation for decision making concerning design and assessment of structures in the context of specific projects.

Provides a basis for specifying requirements for aggregates intended for use as railway ballast.

Sets out requirements and procedures for the repair or rehabilitation, extension of remaining service life, strengthening to restore capacity due to structural deterioration, strengthening to increase capacity for live load, and changing the function of and widening of existing bridges.
