Specifies requirements, additional to those in AS 1418.1, for tower cranes of the ram luffing, rope luffing, saddle jib (hammerhead), articulated saddle jib, and self-erecting types. Application, loading, design, controls and indicating devices, equipment, access, marking, and inspection and testing are covered. Appendices provide guidance on information to be supplied with an inquiry or order, and by the manufacturer, illustrations of typical types of cranes, typical classifications of the crane as a whole and crane mechanisms.

Details the requirements for the design, installation, materials and commissioning of tanks for the storage of water for fire fighting and fire control purposes.

Adopts ISO 13006:2012, which specifies terms and establishes classifications, characteristics and marking requirements for ceramic tiles of the best commercial quality (first quality).

Specifies the minimum requirements and provides further recommendations for the organization, staffing, operation and management of a company providing static or mobile guarding services, but does not include the requirements for licensed crowd controllers. It includes sections on company organization, staffing and documentation. An appendix provides the specific requirements for custodial and escort officers.

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.

This Standard sets out the method for testing flexible pointing to determine its suitability for use as an adhesive flexible pointing after conditioning by prolonged water saturation.

Sets out performance requirements for the system design, installation and commissioning of emergency warning and intercommunication systems in buildings. Provides guidance for the location, functional and operational requirements, and installation and commissioning of emergency warning systems and emergency intercommunication systems. Specifies protection requirements for cabling and specific components. Appendices detail tests for hazard-resistant wiring components and sealed batteries, method of operation and response of personnel, system information, tests reports and installer's statement.

In This Standard the scope of Int 325-1953 has been extended in that it now covers accessory items generally which, in recent years, have been increasingly built into masonry construction. In the specification of these products, the main consideration of this Standard is to ensure resistance to corrosion, so that the materials can be relied on to perform their intended function for the life of the building. This Standard is complementary to AS 2699, Wall ties for masonry construction.

Sets out a basis for specifying requirements for aggregates intended for use in gabion baskets and wire mattresses.

Applies to type-tested assemblies (TTA) intended for use on construction sites, i.e. temporary places of work to which the public do not generally have access and where building construction, installation, repairs, alterations or demolition of property (buildings) or civil engineering (public works) or excavations or where any other similar operations are carried out. These assemblies may be transportable (semi-fixed) or mobile. This Standard is technically equivalent to and reproduced from IEC 439-4:1990.
