This Standard sets out a qualitative method for the detection of sugar in aggregates intended for use in the production of concrete. A positive reaction is given by one part of sugar in one thousand parts of aggregates. No visible reaction is given by one part of sugar in 10 000 parts of aggregates.

This Standard sets out the method for the determination of the degradation factor of rock spalls and drill cores. The test categorizes the fines produced by self-abrasion in the presence of water.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the polished aggregate friction value (PAFV) of naturally occurring or artificially produced materials which are intended to be used as, or to be a source of, pavement surfacing material.

AS ISO 15817:2023 adopts and modifies ISO 15817:2012, which specifies the essential safety requirements for remote operator control systems used on earth-moving machinery as defined in ISO 6165. It is not applicable to autonomous control systems that enable a machine to work without the assistance of an operator, nor does it apply to the remote control of attachments on non-remote controlled machines

Sets out the procedure to classify aggregate according to its susceptibility to alkali attack leading to expansive reactions in concrete.

This Standard sets out the method for determining the polished aggregate friction value (PAFV) of naturally occurring or artificially produced materials which are intended to be used as, or to be a source of, pavement surfacing material by polishing using the horizontal bed machine.

This Standard sets out requirements for installing textile floor coverings (carpets). It gives details of the work necessary in preparing subfloor surfaces, together with the procedures that are to be adopted where textile floor coverings are laid over various types of subfloors and underlays.

Specifies the method for determining the aggregate crushing value by tamping a measured mass of sieved material (14 mm nominal size) in a standard cylinder, crushing with a plunger and determining the mass passing a 2.36 mm sieve. Material of other nominal sizes may be used but the result may not be comparable.

AS 10567:2024 adopts and modifies ISO 10567, which provides a uniform method for calculating the lift capacity of hydraulic excavators and specifies a procedure for verifying the calculations. It is applicable to the limits of both hydraulic lift capacity and machine-tipping, and establishes the rated lift capacity for hydraulic excavators as defined in AS/ISO 7135

Nominates a series of test procedures and limits to be utilised in different geographic areas of Australia. These procedures and limits have proved suitable for specifying aggregates for use in asphalts in pavements up to and including major highways.
